THE TIMES 'Fascinating, angering' THE MAIL ON SUNDAY As a woman, if you lived in Scotland in the 1500s, there was a very good chance that you, or someone you knew, would be tried as a witch. Witch hunts ripped through the country for over 150 years, with at least 4,000 accused, and with many women's fates sealed by a grizzly execution of strangulation, followed by burning.Inspired to correct this historic injustice, campaigners and writers Claire Mitchell, KC, and Zoe Venditozzi, have delved deeply into just why the trials exploded in Scotland to such a degree.

With testimony from a small army of experts, pen portraits of the women accused, trial transcripts, witness accounts and the documents that set the legal grounds for the hunts, How to Kill A Witch builds to form a rich patchwork of tragic stories, helping us comprehend the underlying reasons for this terrible injustice, and raises the serious question - could it ever happen again?

Habakkuk and Zephaniah: Wrath and Mercy (International Theological Commentary (ITC))
by Maria Eszenyei SzelesNeither Habakkuk nor Zephaniah is very well known or understood by our generation. These Old Testament prophets, who were contemporary with Jeremiah, interpreted events leading up to the total destruction of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar, the Babylonian "king of kings and lord of lords," in 597 and 587 B.C. Writing from within a Socialist society, Mária Eszenyei Széles offers a unique perspective on Habakkuk and Zephaniah — a profoundly moving interpretation of the mystery of God's apparent absence or weakness when his own people meet with intolerable suffering at the hands of a cruel totalitarian regime.

Habakkuk: The Book Of Habakkuk (The Two Horizons Old Testament Commentary (THOTC))
by Heath A. ThomasThe book of Habakkuk has much to teach us about suffering and complaint, faith and fear, and the fidelity of God in times of trouble; it generates reflection on prayer, peace, violence, and faithfulness. In this volume—one of the few commentaries examining Habakkuk by itself—Heath Thomas explores this overlooked Old Testament prophet in order to hear God’s word for us today.
Habermas and Theology
by Nicholas AdamsHow can the world's religious traditions debate within the public sphereï 1/2 In this book Nicholas Adams shows the importance of Habermas' approaches to this question. The full range of Habermas' work is considered, with detailed commentary on the more difficult texts. Adams energetically rebuts some of Habermas' arguments, particularly those which postulate the irrationality or stability of religious thought. Members of different religious traditions need to understand their own ethical positions as part of a process of development involving ongoing disagreements, rather than a stable unchanging morality. Public debate additionally requires learning each other's patterns of disagreement. Adams argues that rather than suspending their deep reasoning to facilitate debate, as Habermas suggests, religious traditions must make their reasoning public, and that 'scriptural reasoning' is a possible model for this. Habermas overestimates the stability of religious traditions. This book offers a more realistic assessment of the difficulties and opportunities they face.
Habib Bourguiba, Islam and the Creation of Tunisia (Routledge Revivals)
by Norma SalemFirst published in 1984, Habib Bourguiba, Islam and the Creation of Tunisia is a study of Habib Bourguiba, the founder of independent Tunisia, that argues that Islam played a vital role in the development of the Tunisian nationalist movement. This book is therefore both a biography of the Tunisian leader and a discussion of the role of Islam as the key to legitimacy throughout the Arab world. The author argues that Islam was such a fundamental component in defining the specificity of the Tunisian nation that even Bourguiba, the most secular of Arab leaders, could not shed the Arab-Islamic heritage of Tunisia. Instead, he used Islam as a principle mode of communication to mobilise the Tunisian masses. This book will be of interest to students of African studies, history, political science and religion.

Habits of Compassion: Irish Catholic Nuns and the Origins of New York's Welfare System, 1830-1920 (Women, Gender, and Sexuality in American History)
by Maureen FitzgeraldThe Irish-Catholic Sisters accomplished tremendously successful work in founding charitable organizations in New York City from the Irish famine through the early twentieth century. Maureen Fitzgerald argues that their championing of the rights of the poor—especially poor women—resulted in an explosion of state-supported services and programs. Parting from Protestant belief in meager and means-tested aid, Irish Catholic nuns argued for an approach based on compassion for the poor. Fitzgerald positions the nuns' activism as resistance to Protestantism's cultural hegemony. As she shows, Roman Catholic nuns offered strong and unequivocal moral leadership in condemning those who punished the poor for their poverty and unmarried women for sexual transgression. Fitzgerald also delves into the nuns' own communities, from the class-based hierarchies within the convents to the political power they wielded within the city. That power, amplified by an alliance with the local Irish Catholic political machine, allowed the women to expand public charities in the city on an unprecedented scale.

Habitual Offenders: A True Tale of Nuns, Prostitutes, and Murderers in Seventeenth-Century Italy
by Craig A. MonsonIn April 1644, two nuns fled Bologna's convent for reformed prostitutes. A perfunctory archiepiscopal investigation went nowhere, and the nuns were quickly forgotten. By June of the next year, however, an overwhelming stench drew a woman to the wine cellar of her Bolognese townhouse, reopened after a two-year absence--where to her horror she discovered the eerily intact, garroted corpses of the two missing women. Drawing on over four thousand pages of primary sources, the intrepid Craig A. Monson reconstructs this fascinating history of crime and punishment in seventeenth-century Italy. Along the way, he explores Italy's back streets and back stairs, giving us access to voices we rarely encounter in conventional histories: prostitutes and maidservants, mercenaries and bandits, along with other "dubious" figures negotiating the boundaries of polite society. Painstakingly researched and breathlessly told, Habitual Offenders will delight historians and true-crime fans alike.

Hablemos de Dios: Un diálogo sobre la religión en el siglo XXI
by Victoria CampsDos pensadoras clave exploran el lugar de las religiones de nuestro mundo, la tendencia al fundamentalismo y la posibilidad de una moral universal. ¿Una moral sin religión es una moral desprovista de fundamento? ¿Es posible pretender una moral universal que pueda ser compartida por creyentes y no creyentes? ¿Qué cabe esperar de las religiones, para bien y para mal? ¿Satisfacen las creencias religiosas alguna necesidad que no puede ser satisfecha de otra forma? ¿Se pueden acercar las posiciones de los creyentes y los no creyentes que deben convivir en una misma sociedad? Éstas y otras muchas preguntas se plantean Victoria Camps y Amelia Valcárcel en este ameno diálogo epistolar sobre la situación de la religión en el giro del nuevo siglo. Desde el deseo de reflexionar sobre la actual situación de lo religioso y con la base de la filosofía occidental, ambas exploran el lugar de las religiones en nuestro mundo, el poder de losmonoteísmos y su tendencia a desviarse hacia el fundamentalismo, la secularización y la posibilidad de una moral universal. En un momento en que en España muchos reclaman, más que nunca, la salida definitiva de la religión de la vida pública, esta defensa desapasionada pero demoledora de la laicidad está más vigente que nunca. Reseña:«El libro, escrito con mucha chispa y poderosa argumentación" cautiva. Difícil sustraerse a sus tesis.»Reyes Mate, El País
Hablemos de nueva evangelización: Para que sea nueva y evangelizadora
by Gerardo Galetto Raúl Berzosa MartínezEl Papa Benedicto XVI ha escrito: La Iglesia en su conjunto, y en ella sus pastores, como Cristo han de ponerse en camino para rescatar a los hombres del desierto y conducirlos al lugar de la vida, hacia la amistad con el Hijo de Dios, hacia Aquel que nos da la vida, y la vida en plenitud. Por eso, a la pregunta ¿qué es evangelizar?, no puede haber otra respuesta: Es enseñar el arte de Vivir. Pero para evangelizar se necesitan evangelizadores nuevos. El Papa subraya: Solo los hombres y mujeres tocados por Dios serán capaces de abrir la mente y el corazón de sus contemporáneos a los misterios del Dios Vivo. Es el reto para toda la Iglesia. Esta obra, releyendo los Lineamenta sinodales, pretende ser un humilde servicio al apasionante dinamismo misionero de la nueva evangelización; aportando material de reflexión personal y para un trabajo en grupos, en vísperas del Sínodo de Obispos a celebrarse en 2012 sobre este tema.Raúl Berzosa Martínez, Doctor y profesor en Teología, fue ordenado obispo auxiliar de Oviedo (Asturias) en el año 2005. Desde el año 2011 es obispo de Ciudad Rodrigo. En esta misma editorial ha publicado: Ser laico en la Iglesia y en el mundo (2000), Una lectura creyente de Atapuerca. La fe cristiana ante las teorías de la evolución (2005), Transmitir la Fe en un nuevo siglo. Retos y propuestas (2006), Iglesia, sociedad y comunidad política. Entre la confesionalidad y el laicismo (2007), 150 miradas de actualidad en el espejo de la cultura (2007).Gerardo Galetto, sacerdote argentino, Doctor y profesor en Filosofía por la Universidad Lateranense (Roma), fue Rector de la Universidad Católica de Santa Fe (2002-2010) y actualmente es Oficial del Pontificio Consejo para la Promoción de la Nueva Evangelización, encargado para América Latina.

Hacedor de caminos: Encuentra la vida que siempre soñaste
by Ann Voskamp¿A veces te parece imposible alcanzar lo que quieres? ¿Eres soltero y quieres casarte? ¿Eres estéril y deseas tener hijos? ¿Estás en un trabajo sin futuro y quieres conseguir un empleo que marque una diferencia? ¿Estás perdiendo la esperanza de llegar alguna vez adonde quieres ir?En Hacedor de caminos, Ann nos anima a no abandonar la esperanza, sino a aferrarnos a ella, porque tenemos un Dios que abrirá un camino donde no lo hay. Combinando la historia de Moisés y los israelitas en el camino al mar Rojo con su historia increíble de haber adoptado a una niña china y haber albergado a una familia refugiada de Siria, Ann nos muestra cómo los fieles comienzan a caminar por su propia senda del mar Rojo, dando un paso a la vez.Así como Moisés estaba lleno de dudas sobre si podría terminar la tarea que el Señor le había encomendado, Ann se pregunta si alguna vez cumplirá el sueño de traer a casa a Shiloh, la bebé china con medio corazón, de quien se enamoró luego de ver su foto en un iPhone.¿Cómo aprendemos a depositar nuestra confianza en el Dios viviente? Damos un paso SANTO a la vez, a medida que practicamos la quietud, la adoración, la confesión, la reflexión, la introspección y la doxología.Ann da un paso y luego otro, e incluso viaja a Irak invitada por un ministerio internacional. Allí descubre la verdad que su esposo, el granjero, le cuenta: «Estás más segura haciendo la voluntad de Dios allí, que fuera de su voluntad aquí». Y, al igual que Moisés, entiende después de cruzar milagrosamente el mar Rojo, que Dios a veces nos llama a esperar «en el desierto» para hacer una obra más profunda dentro de nosotros. Hacedor de caminos nos está llevando hacia adelante en esa espera. Hacedor de caminos está edificando nuestro carácter.Y frente a toda imposibilidad, pero gracias a Aquel que abre caminos, los israelitas cruzan el Jordán, y Ann no solo lleva a Shiloh a su tierra prometida, sino que también la familia de refugiados sirios que ella apadrina viene a vivir a su pequeña ciudad canadiense. A través de todo esto, ella descubre que el Hacedor de senderos siempre abrirá un camino, no hacia donde creemos que queremos ir, sino un sendero que nos conduce a Él. Y nosotros también descubrimos que, más que abrirnos paso, lo que verdaderamente desea nuestra alma es a el Hacedor de caminos.The Way MakerDoes it sometimes seem impossible to get where you want to go? Are you single and want to be married? Are you barren and want to have children? Are you in a dead-end job and long for work that makes a difference in the world? Are you losing hope that you will ever get where you want to go?In The Way Maker Ann encourages us not to pack up hope, but to hold on to hope, because we have a God who will make a way, where there is no way. Weaving the story of Moses and the Israelites on the road to the Red Sea with her own unlikely story of adopting both a little girl from China and a refugee family from Syria, Ann shows how the faithful start walking their own Red Sea road by taking just one step.
