Beschreibung

In "Salem Witchcraft (Complete Edition)", Charles Wentworth Upham meticulously explores the infamous Salem witch trials of 1692, weaving a rich tapestry of historical narrative, personal testimonies, and critical analysis. Upham's literary style is characterized by its scholarly rigor and vivid storytelling, effectively immersing readers in the complexities of Puritan society and the socio-political dynamics that fueled the hysteria. Presented with an eye for detail, this complete edition includes comprehensive documentation of court records and contemporary accounts, providing a profound context that enhances the understanding of this dark chapter in American history. Charles Wentworth Upham was a historian, politician, and educator in the mid-19th century, whose deep engagement with Massachusetts history and fervent commitment to uncovering truth resonate throughout his work. Influenced by his own experiences and the prevailing intellectual currents of his time, Upham sought not only to recount historical facts but to interrogate the moral implications of the witch trials. His distinct position as a descendant of those involved in the trials adds a personal dimension to his scholarly inquiry. This seminal work is highly recommended for anyone interested in American history, legal studies, or the cultural contexts of fear and superstition. Upham'Äôs balanced approach provides an essential resource for understanding the interplay between religion, societal pressures, and the human psyche during times of crisis.

    "Power, Pleasure, and Pain: A Study of Abuse Through Time" delves into the dark history of how sexual violence and abuse have been intertwined with power structures throughout history. From the libertine excesses of figures like the Marquis de Sade to the scandals of modern-day predators like Harvey Weinstein and R. Kelly, this book provides a compelling examination of how those in power have used their positions to exploit and control others. 
    Spanning centuries, this critical exploration looks at the societal, cultural, and institutional failures that have enabled abusers to operate with impunity. Sean Dupree uses both historical and contemporary examples to highlight the systemic nature of sexual violence, tracing its roots back to philosophical and psychological underpinnings of dominance and submission. 
    Whether dissecting the abuse of power in religious institutions, entertainment, or the workplace, this study leaves no stone unturned. "Power, Pleasure, and Pain" is a powerful reminder that, despite the progress made by movements like #MeToo, much work remains to be done in holding abusers accountable and supporting survivors of sexual violence.

    This combo consists of 2 books: 
    1 - Emiliano Zapata Salazar was a revolutionary in Mexico. He was a key figure in the Mexican Revolt of the years 1910 until 1920, and also the primary leader of the people's revolution in the Mexican state of Morelos and the creator of the Zapatismo agrarian movement. Zapata was born in the rural town of Anenecuilco in the state of Morelos, at the time of a period when peasant communities dealt with increasing pressure from the small-landowning class, which monopolized land and water resources for sugar-cane production with the support of totalitarian Porfirio Daz (President from the year 1877 to 1880 and from 1884 to 1911). Zapata was associated with political efforts against Daz and the landowning hacendados from an early age, and when the Revolution emerged in the year 1910, he was placed as a key figure in the peasant insurgence in Morelos. He established the Freedom Army of the South with the help of certain other peasant leaders, and he rapidly rose to become its undisputed head. 
    2 - The cult image, female divine being, and folk saint Nuestra Seora de la Santa Muerte (Spanish meaning: Our Woman of the Holy Death) is a cult image, female divine being, and folk saint in Mexican Neopaganism and folk Catholicism. Her worshippers relate her with healing, security, and safe delivery to the afterlife simply because she's a personification of death. In spite of condemnation from Catholic Church leaders and, more just recently, evangelical movements, her following has grown substantially since the start of the twenty-first century. Santa Muerte, who was initially portrayed as a male character, is now generally illustrated as a skeletal female figure dressed in a long cape and clutching several things, most typically a scythe and a world.
