Book excerpt: This sourcebook provides the first systematic overview of witchcraft laws and trials in Russia and Ukraine from medieval times to the late nineteenth century. Witchcraft in Russia and Ukraine, 1000–1900 weaves scholarly commentary with never-before-published primary source materials translated from Polish, Russian, and Ukrainian. These sources include the earliest references to witchcraft and sorcery, secular and religious laws regarding witchcraft and possession, full trial transcripts, and a wealth of magical spells. The documents present a rich panorama of daily life and reveal the extraordinary power of magical words. Editors Valerie A. Kivelson and Christine D. Worobec present new analyses of the workings and evolution of legal systems, the interplay and tensions between church and state, and the prosaic concerns of the women and men involved in witchcraft proceedings.

Download or read book From Odessa with Love written by Vladislav Davidzon and published by . This book was released on 2021-09 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Born in Tashkent, raised in Moscow and New York City, an editor in Odessa, a correspondent in Paris, there seems nowhere Davidzon hasn't been, no one he hasn't met. The result is a distinctive voice and eye, an eclectic mix of the cultural critic, the political analyst and the liberal cosmopolitan, evident from the first page of this delightful book" - Mark Galeotti, University College London and Royal University Services Institute The Tashkent-born Russian-American literary critic, editor, essayist, and journalist Vladislav Davidzon has been covering post-Soviet Ukraine for the past ten years, a tumultuous time for that country and the surrounding world. The 2014 "Revolution of Dignity" heralded a tremendous transformation of Ukrainian politics and society that has continued to ripple and reverberate throughout the world. These unprecedented events also wrought a remarkable cultural revolution in Ukraine itself. In late 2015, a year and a half after the 2014 Revolution swept away the presidency of the Moscow-leaning kleptocratic President Viktor Yanukovich, Davidzon and his wife founded a literary journal, The Odessa Review, focusing on newly emergent trends in film, literature, painting, design, and fashion. The journal became an East European cultural institution, publishing outstanding writers in the region and beyond. From his vantage point as a journalist and editor, Davidzon came to observe events and know many of the leading figures in Ukrainian politics and culture, and to write about them for a Western audience. Davidzon later found himself in the center of world events as he became a United States government witness in the Ukraine scandal that shook the presidency of Donald Trump. This eagerly anticipated debut tells the real story of what happened in Ukraine from the keen and resilient perspective of an observer at its center.

Download or read book Conversation With Grief written by Tetyana Denford and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-05 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do you want from me, I asked. Everything you're not prepared to offer, grief said. And so, we sat quietly, listening to the noise of our rabbit hearts, and gave our stories to each other. What if you learned to love the very thing you're scared of? conversation with grief is part of a series of three collections of poetry and prose taking the reader into the realization that learning about the 'big moments' in life means having raw and vulnerable conversations with yourself, with others, with memories, music, words, loss, and healing. In "conversation with grief", Tetyana sees a scale of life where grief and loss exist everywhere: within joy and pain, within beauty and tragedy. And ultimately, the hardest and most rewarding thing we can do is to sit with grief, talk to it, live with it like a friend we can learn from and heal with. Tetyana's writing has been called "haunting", "bold and lyrical", "completely heartbreaking", and a beautiful study of connection, humanity, and how we can all learn from each other's stories."
