Synopsis

Embark on an enchanting exploration of mystical traditions with *The Great Book of Witchcraft*, a diverse anthology comprising works by luminaries such as Bram Stoker, Jules Michelet, and Margaret Murray. This collection masterfully spans the spectrum of literary styles from historical narratives to imaginative tales, immersing readers in the rich tapestry of witchcraft lore and its myriad interpretations across eras and cultures. With historical treatises juxtaposed with evocative folklore, the significance of this volume lies in its ability to blend the historical veracity with popular imagination, providing a panoramic view of witchcraft's evolving presence within literary contexts and societal perceptions. The anthology is a collaboration among distinguished figures who have profoundly shaped the discourse surrounding witchcraft and the supernatural. Many contributors, like Increase and Cotton Mather, provide a puritanical glimpse into early American witch trials, while European voices, such as Wilhelm Meinhold and E. Lynn Linton, explore the intersections of myth and reality that have fascinated audiences for generations. This convergence of authors, representing diverse periods and perspectives, reflects and refracts the complex undercurrents of superstition, fear, and intrigue that define the cultural phenomenon of witchcraft. For those eager to delve into the nuanced history and imaginative interpretations of witchcraft, this anthology offers an unparalleled opportunity. The collection not only illuminates the multiplicity of witchcraft narratives but also fosters a dialogue between the many voices assembled within its covers. Readers will find themselves enriched by the anthology's educational scope, gaining profound insights into the perennial mystery and allure of witchcraft as they journey through its artful synthesis of perspective, style, and theme.

    Winner of the Best Non-Fiction by a Parliamentarian category at the Parliamentary Book Awards 2023
    With a Foreword by Lord Hague of Richmond
    The Intelligence Corps is one of the smallest and most secretive elements of the British Army. It has existed in various guises since the early twentieth century, but it was only formally constituted in July 1940. In this book, Michael Ashcroft tells the astonishing stories of some of its most courageous and ingenious figures, who have operated all over the world from the First World War to the present day.
    Whether carrying out surveillance work on the street, monitoring and analysing communications, working on overseas stakeouts, receiving classified information from a well-placed contact or interrogating the enemy in the heat of war, a hugely diverse range of people have served in the Corps, often supplementing their individual professional skills with original thinking and leadership in the name of the Crown. This book pays tribute to them and shows why, in the words of the 1st Duke of Marlborough, 'No war can be conducted successfully without early and good intelligence.'

    In recent years, "white feminism" and girlboss feminism have taken a justified beating. We know that leaning in won't make our jobs any more tolerable and that white women have proven to be, at best, unreliable allies. But in a time of rising fascism, ceaseless attacks on reproductive justice, and violent transphobia, we need to reckon with what Western feminism has wrought if we have any hope of building the feminist world we need. 
     
     
     
    Sophie Lewis offers an unflinching tour of enemy feminisms, from nineteenth century imperial feminists and police officers to twentieth century KKK feminists and pornophobes to today's anti-abortion and TERF feminists. Enemy feminisms exist. Feminism is not an inherent political good. Only when we acknowledge that can we finally reckon with the ways these feminisms have pushed us toward counterproductive and even violent ends. And only then can we finally engage in feminist strategizing that is truly antifascist. 
     
     
     
    At once a left transfeminist battle cry against cisness, a decolonial takedown of nationalist womanhoods, and a sex-radical retort to femmephobia in all its guises, Enemy Feminisms is above all a fierce, brilliant love letter to feminism.
