Starting in the 15th century, a fear of witchcraft and alternative
practices grew into a hysteria. Because witches were suspected to
be devil worshippers, they were considered heretics to the
Christian church. Consequently, the Christians launched a crusade
against these women and men. Matthew Hopkins was not only among the
greatest supporters of this crusade, but also one of the most
active participants. In just over a year, Matthew Hopkins, a
self-proclaimed "Witchfinder General", killed over one hundred
people. While the witch hunt hysteria infected much of the 17th
century society in England, there were still those who opposed the
accusations and discrimination against witches. After being
criticized for his work, Hopkins decided to publish a guide to
witch hunting, including methods to discover a witch, how to
torture them into a confession, and how to prosecute them. Along
with outlines of torture methods, such as sleep deprivation and
forced physical activity, The Discovery of Witches also addressed
the questions and concerns raised by those who did not support
Hopkins. Under the guise of being a man of God, Hopkins claimed to
have been sent on a divine mission to manipulate other religious
groups into joining his cause. As Hopkin's practices brought him
lucrative success, he rose to a short-lived power, but his
published doctrine spread his influence for years after his death.
The Discovery of Witches by Matthew Hopkins is a short text of
immeasurable insight. Though now recognized as zealot propaganda,
The Discovery of Witches depicts a chilling perspective of a
heinous time in history, including the concerns of those who
opposed it. While Hopkin's work immortalizes a fascinating yet
repulsive historical movement, it also invites readers to reflect
on the ways the spirit of his manipulation is still present in
modern society. This edition of The Discovery of Witches by Matthew
Hopkins features an eye-catching cover deign and is printed in an
easy-to-read font, making it both readable and modern.
The story of King Arthur and the Grail still holds a remarkable
fascination for many people. In this classic work, Walter Johannes
Stein traces its origins in early Christianity and classical and
Nordic mythology, and follows its development in medieval and
modern times. In particular Stein explores the parallels between
the quest for the Grail and the medieval alchemists' search for the
Philosopher's Stone. This book is a collection of essays that were
first published, or delivered as lectures, in the 1920s and 1930s.
The first section of the book is Stein's own memoirs, which ground
his research in the cultural background of the era.
