Synopsis

This is an incredible history focusing on the role of Tomás de Torquemada in the Spanish inquisition. Torquemada was a Castilian Dominican friar and the first Grand Inquisitor in Spain's movement to standardize religious conventions with those of the Catholic Church in the late 15th century. In 1483, Ferdinand and Isabella appointed a state council to administer the inquisition with Torquemada acting as its head and he ultimately acquired the title of Inquisitor-General.  The accounts presented in this work are raw but factual and solid. Sabatini debunks some popular misconceptions about the inquisition and gives his own views on the time's prominent political and religious figures. This history is illustrated with trials and examples of Torquemada and the Holy Office at work. It is well-written and often surprising in its revelations.

    This 3-in-1 volume investigates how identity, social interaction, and constructed realities influence the development of youth within a constantly evolving world. 
    The first section, Youth and Society, examines the social roles, challenges, and transitions that young people face as they grow into adulthood. It explores how education, culture, media, and institutions affect youth identity, opportunity, and social mobility. 
    The second section, The Social Animal, delves into human social behavior with a special focus on youth. Drawing from psychology and sociology, it analyzes group behavior, conformity, interpersonal connection, and the deep need for belonging during formative years. 
    The third section, The Social Construction of Reality, explores how our perceptions of the world—including concepts like adolescence, success, and rebellion—are not just discovered, but socially constructed. This section helps readers understand how youth experiences are shaped by societal narratives and expectations. 
    Together, these three volumes offer an interdisciplinary lens on the transformation of youth and the broader changes shaping society.

    A unique look at the lives of two daughters that highlights the dichotomy of lives of royal women, as both daughters and mothers of kings, who also knew both prison and power. 
     
     
     
    The names of few medieval monarchs and their queens are better known than Eleanor of Aquitaine, uniquely queen of France and queen of England, and her second husband Henry II. Although academically labeled "medieval," their era was the violent transition from the Dark Ages, when countries' borders were defined with fire and sword. If princes fought for their succession to crowns, the princesses were traded—usually by their mothers—to strangers for political power without the bloodshed. Years before what would today be marriageable age, royal girls were dispatched to countries whose speech was unknown to them and there became the property of unknown men. Eleanor's daughters Marie and Alix were abandoned in Paris when she divorced Louis VII of France. By Henry II, she bore Matilda, Aliénor, and Joanna. Joanna was imprisoned by William II of Sicily and worse treated by her brutal second husband in Toulouse. If Eleanor was libeled as a whore, Aliénor's descendants include two saints, Louis of France and Fernando of Spain. And then there were the illegitimate daughters, whose lives read like novels . . .
