Sinopsis

Power and Persecution: Political Influence in Inquisition Trials by William Ubagan offers a compelling exploration of one of history's most infamous institutions—the Inquisition. Far from being solely an instrument of religious fervor, the trials reveal a deeper narrative of political maneuvering, social control, and the strategic use of faith to suppress dissent.
 
Through meticulous research and sharp analysis, this book examines how influential figures wielded the Inquisition to consolidate power, silence opposition, and shape societies. It uncovers the hidden agendas behind the persecution, the political motivations driving key decisions, and the lives irreparably altered in the name of justice.
 
Combining historical evidence with modern insights, Ubagan paints a vivid picture of the Inquisition’s complex legacy, challenging readers to consider how these historical dynamics still resonate in today's political and legal systems.
 
This work is an essential read for history enthusiasts, scholars, and anyone seeking to understand the intersection of power, faith, and justice in shaping human history.

    When asked about Picasso, towards the end of his life, what was the difference between art and eroticism, he replied meditatively and dreamily: “But there is no difference.” others feared eroticism, Picasso warned against the dangerous experiments of art: “Art is never chaste, it should be kept away from all innocent ignorant. People insufficiently prepared should never come into contact with him. Yes, art is dangerous. When he is chaste, he is no longer art. ”The notion of erotic art is surrounded by a halo of hypocritical, deceptive and dissimulating concepts: art or pornography, sex or eroticism, obscenity or originality, these attempts at distinction and determination mix too much for an objective clarification to be When can we talk about “erotic art”?

    “The book’s strength is a thorough assessment of Dylan’s career, album by album, song by song. Both longtime fans and newcomers . . . will appreciate.” —Library Journal With Bob Dylan’s receipt of the Nobel Prize in Literature, his iconic status as an American musical, cultural, and poetic giant has never been more apparent. Bob Dylan: American Troubadour is the first book to look at Dylan’s career, from his first album to his masterpiece Tempest. Donald Brown provides insightful critical commentary on Dylan’s prolific body of work, placing Dylan’s career in the context of its time in order to assess the relationship of Dylan’s music to contemporary American culture. Each chapter follows the shifting versions of Dylan, from his songs of conscientious social involvement to more personal exploratory songs; from his influential rock albums of the mid-1960s to his adaptations of country music; from his three very different tours in the 1970s to his “born again” period as a proselytizer for Christ and his frustrations as a recording and performing artist in the 1980s; from his retrospective importance in the 1990s to the refreshingly vital albums he has been producing in the 21st century. “This concise examination of the Dylan corpus is especially good for younger generations who may want to better understand how a musician in his early seventies can still be so compelling and relevant in twenty-first-century America.”. —Booklist    “Fascinating . . . Highly recommended. All readers.  —Choice Reviews “A nearly album by album retrospective of one of the most culturally significant and musically influential musicians in modern history.” —Examiner “A must read for Dylan enthusiasts.”  —Journal of American Culture
