A woman (usually), unimaginably old, with streaming grey hair, who rides the air on her broom and devours little children. We can take it for granted that this type of witch doesn’t exist, but villains there have been, and butchers too. Who were these monsters, those who accused, arrested, judged and condemned without showing consideration or pity? What were their motives? Did they act to uphold the received faith, or was it purely for self-preservation? Was it a cover for the execution of private vendettas and personal gains, or for the achievement of political aims and public recognition? In his fascinating book Eric Durschmied explores the history of witch delusion and the cruel butchers who hunted and executed so-called witches, exploring a period from the Middle Ages to modern times.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marissa's Books \u0026 Gifts, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":20035538681929,"sku":"1561499071281x252527037237166080","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0077\/9010\/0553\/products\/marissasbooksandgifts-9780752456461-whores-of-the-devil-witch-hunts-and-witch-trials-35554525806791.jpg?v=1663605247"},{"product_id":"jasper-john","title":"Jasper John","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn enlightening new interpretation of one of today's most influential artists featuring over 100 illustrations.For more than thirty years Jasper Johns has been making art that teases viewers with the willful obscurity of its content, while offering rich visual pleasures with the beauty of its form, color, and surface. In 1955 he painted his first Flags, which, with the Target and Numbers that soon followed, were to become his most famous work. His transformation of such common place images into art helped to shatter the dominance of Abstract Expressionism and to make possible the later innovations of Pop art and Minimalism. Johns's acclaimed recent work, which is well represented in this book, combines his continuing fascination with ready-made images with an exciting new use of illusionistic painting.About the Modern Masters series:With informative, enjoyable texts and over 100 illustrations — approximately 48 in full color — this innovative series offers a fresh look at the most creative and influential artists of the postwar era. The authors are highly respected art historians and critics chosen for their ability to think clearly and write well. Each handsomely designed volume presents a thorough survey of the artist's life and work, as well as statements by the artist, an illustrated chapter on technique, a chronology, lists of exhibitions and public collections, an annotated bibliography, and an index. Every art lover, from the casual museum goer to the serious student, teacher, critic, or curator, will be eager to collect these Modern Masters.

Otherwise you start to become inhuman.” So speaks rescuer Hetty Voûte in The Heart Has Reasons, a remarkable book that provides both a fresh look at the “righteous gentiles,” and a meditation on what they might have to teach us more than half a century after they defied Hitler. In 1996, Mark Klempner sought out some of the last surviving Dutch rescuers of Jewish children to better understand how and why they made their courageous choices. Inspired by their willingness to risk everything to help others during the war, the author became deeply interested in what the rescuers have done with their lives since, and where their moral compasses point today. What emerges is both a window to the past and a vision for the future. If the rescuers could remain committed to making a difference while under the boot of the Nazi regime, we surely have something to learn from them about taking a stand against injustices, about maintaining an open heart, and about not giving in or giving up.

Johann and Josef Strauss, the Waltz Kings, composed hundreds of instantly recognizable and enduring melodies, including The Blue Danube Waltz, Tales from the Vienna Woods, Voices of Spring and The Radetzky March. Their iconic music has been featured on the scores of nearly a thousand films.Yet despite their success, this was a family riven with tension, feuds and jealousy, living in a country that was undergoing seismic upheaval. Through the personal and political chaos, the Strauss family continued to compose music to which the Viennese – anxious to forget their troubles – could dance and drank champagne, even as their country hurtled towards oblivion at the hands of the First World War. Classical music expert and radio host John Suchet skillfully portrays this gripping story, capturing the family dramas, the tensions, triumphs and disasters against the turbulent backdrop of Austria in the nineteenth century, from revolution to regicide.","brand":"Marissa's Books \u0026 Gifts, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":20240897310793,"sku":"1568134333359x767424853616099300","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0077\/9010\/0553\/products\/marissasbooksandgifts-9781250094117-the-last-waltz-the-strauss-dynasty-and-vienna-7479728439369.jpg?v=1568181021"},{"product_id":"trumans-dilemma-invasion-or-the-bomb","title":"Truman's Dilemma: Invasion or The Bomb","description":"This in-depth look at the circumstances of the Pacific War notes that the Japanese military's willingness to die for their emperor and country created a very different type of warfare. ","brand":"Marissa's Books \u0026 Gifts, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":20244335525961,"sku":"1568224934062x188231060910243840","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0077\/9010\/0553\/products\/marissasbooksandgifts-9781589801196-truman-s-dilemma-invasion-or-the-bomb-7483056685129.jpg?v=1568268892"},{"product_id":"gory-gladiators-savage-centurions-and-caesars-sticky-end-a-menacing-history-of-the-unruly-romans","title":"Gory Gladiators, Savage Centurions, and Caesar's Sticky End: A Menacing History of the Unruly Romans!","description":"A menacing history of the unruly Romans","brand":"Marissa's Books \u0026 Gifts, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":20247186538569,"sku":"1568325912901x153697859399057400","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0077\/9010\/0553\/products\/marissasbooksandgifts-9781482431148-gory-gladiators-savage-centurions-and-caesar-s-sticky-end-a-menacing-history-of-the-unruly-romans-7486373789769.jpg?v=1568356233"},{"product_id":"the-final-days","title":"The Final Days","description":"The Washington Post reporters draw on interviews, leaks, and investigations to reconstruct the events and circumstances, in and outside the White House, during the unsettled and unsettling final weeks of the Nixon administration.","brand":"Marissa's Books \u0026 Gifts, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":30101186281545,"sku":"1568815617859x155143022368260100","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0077\/9010\/0553\/products\/marissasbooksandgifts-9780380008445-the-final-days-12499191496777.jpg?v=1568959500"}],"url":"https:\/\/marissasbooks.com\/collections\/history-1.oembed?page=17","provider":"Marissa's Books \u0026 Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
