This in-depth and comprehensive resource explores the intersection of religion, politics, and the supernatural that spawned the notorious witch hunts in Europe and the New World. Witch Hunts in the Western World traces the evolution of Western attitudes toward magic, demons, and religious nonconformity from the Roman Empire through the Age of Enlightenment, placing these chilling events into a wider social and historical context. Brian A. Pavlac discusses witch hunts in fascinating detail by region, highlighting the cultural differences of the people who incited them as well as the key reforms, social upheavals, and intellectual debates that shaped European thought. Vivid accounts of trials and excerpts from the writings of both witch hunters and defenders throughout the Holy Roman Empire, France, the British Isles and colonies, Southern Europe, Scandinavia, and Eastern Europe bring to life one of the most intriguing and shocking issues in Western history. Accessible narrative chapters make this a fascinating volume for general readers while offering a wealth of historical information for students and scholars. Features include a complete glossary of terms, a timeline of major events, recommended reading selections, an index, and illustrations.

Great Small Plates
Style: 600 Count (2 Pack of 300), Size: 300 Count (Pack of 2)
I love these plates. I have been buying them for a couple of years and I think they are a great value. I use them to feed my cats and dog, and for reheating leftovers for lunch at work. They are sturdy, don't soak through, and the perfect size for my needs. I don't understand why people have left negative reviews because they didn't read or comprehend the clearly listed plate size.

They do their job!
Style: 600 Count (2 Pack of 300), Size: 300 Count (Pack of 2)
The thickness and the strength of these plates is great. They’re not flimsy at all. I haven’t had any issue with their functionality since small plates are typically for desserts or snacks. The only issue I’ve had is that they tend to be stuck together a fair amount of the time. Before gatherings, I’ve had to separate the plates. Not a huge problem, just a little inconvenience imo.
