constructing a witch helen ivory

Featuring ten collage illustrations by the author, Helen Ivory’s new poetry collection Constructing a Witch fixes on the monstering and the scapegoating of women and on the fear of ageing femininity.In this collection, the witch appears as the barren, child-eating hag; she is a lustful seductress luring men to a path of corruption; she is a powerful or cantankerous woman whose cursing must be silenced by force. These bewitching poems explore the witch archetype and the witch as human woman. They examine the nature of superstition and the necessity of magic and counter-magic to gain a fingerhold of agency, when life is chaotic and fragile. In the poems of Constructing a Witch Helen Ivory investigates witch tourism, the witch as outsider, cultural representations of the witch, female power and disempowerment, the menopause, and how the female body has been used and misunderstood for centuries. Constructing a Witch is a Poetry Book Society Recommendation.

An Anatomical Venus - which gives this book its title - was an 18th-century anatomical wax sculpture of an idealized woman, a heady mix of eroticism, death and biological verisimilitude. Venus could be opened up and pulled apart by all the men who studied her. She would give up her secrets the first time of asking. Helen Ivory s new collection The Anatomical Venus examines how women have been portrayed as other ; as witches; as hysterics with wandering wombs and as beautiful corpses cast in wax, or on mortuary slabs in TV box sets. A hanged woman addresses the author of the Malleus Maleficarum, a woman diagnosed with Housewife Psychosis recounts her dreams to Freud, and a sex robot has the ear of her keeper. The Anatomical Venus imagines the lives of women sketched in asylum notes and pictures others shut inside cabinets of curiosity --

When most people hear the word witch , they immediately think of crones conspiring over a cauldron, a force of dark and vindictive power. But to hundreds of thousands across the world, being a witch is a living, everyday reality, much more varied than the fairytale image. Witch Power follows Emma Quilty â “ herself a witch and an anthropologist â “ on an immersive journey into contemporary witchcraft, from Witchcamp retreats to red tent menstrual events, Voodoo priestesses running ghost tours from their vans to TikTokers casting hexes on a viral scale. Attentive to the history of witchcraft, she reveals the role power plays in how the figure of the witch has changed over time to suit the ever-present need to control and demonize women. Because to be a witch is to live in defiance of society s expectations and rules. But while the witch is always castigated as a threat, Quilty finds that the witch is never alone: the witch is a survivor and a symbol of resistance. Ultimately, Witch Power is a provocation and an invitation to readers to experience with the author what it means to embrace witchiness and what witchy feminism could bring to your life.

It was not so long ago that the belief in witchcraft was shared by members of all levels of society. In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, diseases were feared by all, the infant mortality rate was high, and around one in six harvests was likely to fail. In the small rural communities in which most people lived, affection and enmity could build over long periods. When misfortune befell a family, they looked to their neighbours for support - and for the cause. During the sixteenth century, Europe was subject to a fevered and pious wave of witch hunts and trials. As the bodies of accused women burnt right across the Continent, the flames of a nationwide witch hunt were kindled in England. In 1612 nine women were hanged in the Pendle witch trials, the prosecution of the Chelmsford witches in 1645 resulted in the biggest mass execution in England, and in the mid-1640s the Witch finder General instigated a reign of terror in the Puritan counties of East Anglia. Hundreds of women were accused and hanged. It wasn t until the latter half of the seventeenth century that witch-hunting went into decline.In this book, Andrew and David Pickering present a comprehensive catalogue of witch hunts, arranged chronologically within geographical regions. The tales of persecution within these pages are testimony to the horror of witch-hunting that occurred throughout England in the hundred years after the passing of the Elizabethan Witchcraft Act of 1563.

MALCOLM GASKILL, author of The Ruin Of All Witches At a time when women s rights are once again being threatened across the globe, this book could not be a more timely read if it tried. SHIRLEY MANSON, Garbage Two of Scotland s most vivid storytellers. 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. In order to understand why it happened, they have broken down the entire horrifying process, step-by-step, from identification of individuals, to their accusation, pricking , torture, confessions, execution and beyond. With characteristically sharp wit and a sense of outrage, they attempt to inhabit the minds of the persecutors, often men, revealing the inner workings of exactly why the Patriarchy went to such extraordinary lengths to silence women, and how this legally sanctioned victimisation proliferated in Scotland and around the world. 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?

**** THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER ****WINNER 2025 Goodreads Choice AwardsBlackwell s Scottish Book of the Year Fascinating and illuminating, this book tempers the justifiable rage with sharp and funny pinpricks to the pompous. VAL MCDERMID, author of Past Lying As well as highly entertaining read, How To Kill A Witch is a tour de force of research, understanding and compassion. PROFESSOR SUE BLACK, author of All That Remains. Serious and angry, but so completely accessible, How To Kill A Witch is a work of real historical investigation and a fierce warning for our times. MALCOLM GASKILL, author of The Ruin Of All Witches At a time when women s rights are once again being threatened across the globe, this book could not be a more timely read if it tried. SHIRLEY MANSON, Garbage Two of Scotland s most vivid storytellers. 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. In order to understand why it happened, they have broken down the entire horrifying process, step-by-step, from identification of individuals, to their accusation, pricking , torture, confessions, execution and beyond. With characteristically sharp wit and a sense of outrage, they attempt to inhabit the minds of the persecutors, often men, revealing the inner workings of exactly why the Patriarchy went to such extraordinary lengths to silence women, and how this legally sanctioned victimisation proliferated in Scotland and around the world. 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?

Manderley Press is delighted to announce the publication of a brand-new edition of Helene Hanff s Letter from New York - another literary jewel from the author of 84, Charing Cross Road. To showcase this wonderful book, we commissioned the New York Times bestselling author Jean Hanff Korelitz (The Plot) to pen a new introduction - she is a cousin of Helene Hanff s, and was inspired to become a writer after meeting her as a teenager. The front cover was specially designed by New Yorker illustrator Bruce Eric Kaplan, also a fan of the author and a resident of New York City too. Over several years, Helene Hanff read aloud these stories of her life in New York for BBC Radio 4 s Woman s Hour. This book is a collection of selected scripts from this series, composed with a British audience in mind, in which the author offers us a glimpse into her own everyday tales of the city. Written in her trademark whimsical and upbeat style, Helene Hanff transports us right to the heart of Manhattan in the 1980s, describing her favourite places, people and pets with gentle humour, and introducing the reader to the ups and downs of life in a high-rise apartment building in New York City ( the last small town in America ). We are introduced to Bentley, the Old English Sheepdog belonging to a neighbour who captured the author s heart; we take a stroll through the beautiful Shakespeare s Garden in Central Park; and we join the author to enjoy annual city parades down Fifth Avenue - especially the St Patrick s Day parade, when the whole of New York turned green. And we meet Helene s friends: Arlene, whose glamorous social life - and wardrobe - puts Hanff s tiny apartment and simple writer s life into perspective, and Nina, whose garden on the sixteenth-floor overflows with flowers and fruit trees. Finally, we accompany the author as she travels to London to celebrate the opening night of the dramatisation of her best-selling book 84, Charing Cross Road. What started out as a six-month trial in 1978 eventually turned into a six-year project, during which time Helene Hanff captivated radio audiences with her monthly broadcasts - each one a love letter to her beloved NYC. Long before the cast of Friends - and Sarah Jessica Parker s iconic evocation of life in the city - recreated a New York existence for us to experience vicariously, these 5-minute vignettes were the perfect way for native New Yorkers and international readers alike, to revel in the quotidian as well as the glamour of city life, and to discover the unexpected hidden gems - and treasured traditions - of New York City. Letter from New York is still a delight to read, 40 years after it was first written - a timeless and beguiling tale of everyday life in this great city, by one of the best-loved authors of the 20th-century.

Tvrdé dřevo teaku zajišťuje maximální odolnost a pevnost. Teak patří k tomu nejlepšímu, co si můžete přát – vyrábějí se z něj i luxusní jachty. Díky vysokému obsahu oleje mu neublíží ani přiměřená vlhkost. Sestava Ivory je skvělým rodinným posezením na zahradu – oceníte ji při každé party, či oslavě. Kromě vaší zahrady a terasy se bude krásně vyjímat také v zahrádkách restaurací a hospod, v kavárnách a jiných interiérech, například v zimní zahradě. Posezení z teaku má univerzální využití, protože kvalitní dřevo každý prostor jen vylepší. Stačí ji doplnit prostíráním, květinami, či krásným ubrusem a stylové posezení je připraveno. Proč si pořídit zahradní nábytek z teakového dřeva? Dřevo pochází ze stromu teka obrovská, který roste v jihovýchodní Asii, Americe a západní Africe. Tyto stromy jsou vysoké až 40 metrů. Teakový nábytek má spoustu výhod: díky vysokému obsahu pryskyřic není napadán plísní, termity ani jinými škůdci, zdatně odolává nepříznivým vlivům počasí (horku, větru, dešti, sněhu, dokonce i mrazu), je tvrdý, pevný a pružný, má vysokou nosnost, přirozený medový odstín teaku má univerzální využití, péče o teakový nábytek není složitá a odvděčí se vám dlouhou životností (25-30 let), jde o přírodní materiál, který skvěle zapadne do prostor vaší zahrady, koupě teakového nábytku je investicí, která se vyplatí – materiál neztrácí na hodnotě ani po letech. Při správné péči vydrží nábytek z teaku mnoho sezón Teak má teplou zlatou, medovou barvu bez velkých odchylek. Bez ošetření se barva dřeva mění na stříbrošedou, čemuž můžete zabránit nánosem výživného teakového oleje. Poprvé nábytek ošetřete ihned po zakoupení a poté pravidelně minimálně jednou vždy před novou sezónou. Návod na použití oleje a další informace naleznete v článku o teakovém oleji. Posezení si vaši péči zaslouží a odmění se krásným vzhledem a delší životností. Při běžném čištění stačí nábytek otřít od prachu a nečistot. Bohatě si vystačíte s mýdlovou vodou a následným očištěním čistou vodou. Nábytek nečistěte drátěnkou ani agresivními přípravky. Při delším používání nezapomeňte na dotažení šroubů a sklížení spojů. Polstrování doporučujeme čistit lepicím válečkem na textil. Pokud nebudete nábytek mimo sezónu využívat, uschovejte jej do suché větrané místnosti. Při skladování vám práci ulehčí možnost složení křesel i stolu, což značně ušetří místo. Ačkoli teakové dřevo vydrží leccos, zvažte pořízení obalu na nábytek. PVC plachta posezení ochrání před deštěm, prachem a dalšími nečistotami, takže si i po velké vichřici sednete na čistý a suchý nábytek. V bodech: proč si pořídit zahradní sestavu Ivory pro 6 osob?

Why have societies all across the world feared witchcraft? This book delves deeply into its context, beliefs, and origins in Europe⠙s history Traces the idea of witches far beyond the Salem witch trials to beliefs and attitudes about witches around the world throughout history.⠝⠔Los Angeles Times The witch came to prominence⠔and often a painful death⠔in early modern Europe, yet her origins are much more geographically diverse and historically deep. In this landmark book, Ronald Hutton traces witchcraft from the ancient world to the early-modern stake.  This book sets the notorious European witch trials in the widest and deepest possible perspective and traces the major historiographical developments of witchcraft. Hutton, a renowned expert on ancient, medieval, and modern paganism and witchcraft beliefs, combines Anglo-American and continental scholarly approaches to examine attitudes on witchcraft and the treatment of suspected witches across the world, including in Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, Australia, and North and South America, and from ancient pagan times to current interpretations. His fresh anthropological and ethnographical approach focuses on cultural inheritance and change while considering shamanism, folk religion, the range of witch trials, and how the fear of witchcraft might be eradicated.
