Sinopsis

In "Non-Criminal Prisons," Arthur Griffiths presents a thought-provoking examination of the penal system, challenging conventional perceptions of justice and rehabilitation. Griffiths employs a richly descriptive literary style that combines narrative insight with scholarly analysis, engaging readers through vivid illustrations of prison life. Set against the backdrop of late 19th-century England, the book provides an intricate portrait of reformative justice, arguing for the humane treatment of inmates and the potential for personal transformation within prison walls. By situating his work within contemporary debates on punishment and rehabilitation, Griffiths contributes a critical voice to the dialogue around penal reform. Arthur Griffiths, an influential figure in the field of criminology and prison reform, draws upon his extensive experience in the justice system to shape his arguments in this pivotal work. His background as a journalist and a prison governor gave him unique insights into the lives of inmates and the conditions of incarceration. Throughout his career, Griffiths championed the notion that prisons should serve as rehabilitative environments rather than mere punitive spaces, an ideology that is palpably echoed in "Non-Criminal Prisons." This compelling book is highly recommended for readers interested in criminology, social justice, and prison reform. Griffiths' articulate prose and profound understanding of the complexities surrounding incarceration make this a must-read for scholars, policymakers, and anyone eager to engage with the ongoing discourse on the merits and pitfalls of the penal system.

God's Own Gentlewoman - The Life...

Diane Watt

The remarkable story of Margaret Paston, whose letters form the most extensive collection of personal writings by a medieval English woman.

Drawing on what is the largest archive of medieval correspondence relating to a single family in the UK, God's Own Gentlewoman explores what everyday life was like during the turbulent decades at the height of the Wars of the Roses. From political conflicts and familial in-fighting; forbidden love affairs and clandestine marriages; bloody battles and sieges; fear of plague and sudden death; friendships and animosity; childbirth and child mortality, Margaret's letters provide us with unparalleled insight into all aspects of life in late medieval England.

Diane Watt is a world expert on medieval women's writing, and God's Own Gentlewoman explores how Margaret's personal archive provides an insight into her activities, experiences, emotions and relationships and the life of a medieval woman who was at times absorbed by the mundane and domestic, but who also found herself caught up in the most extraordinary situations and events.

Faith - A Very Short Introduction

Roger Trigg

What is faith? It usually means religious belief, and sometimes diverse religions are grouped together as "faiths," with reference to "faith leaders" or "faith schools." What we have faith in matters, and that involves our reason, involving claims to truths that affect everyone. Faith is not just a personal attribute, like tastes, but should be open to public examination and debate. 
 
 
 
In this Very Short Introduction, Roger Trigg argues that all faith needs reason. He puts contemporary discussions into historical perspective, particularly in the context of Christianity. The author argues that faith also involves a commitment to action and that matters for all social life. Because religion is typically directed at what is seen as of crucial importance for human life, faith should not be marginalized or privatized. It will permeate every idea of how people should behave, and has a role in the public square, however respectful it should be to competing views within a democracy.
