Witch Hunt The Revival Of Heresy

Witch Hunt: The Revival Of Heresy by Carey McWilliams is a comprehensive examination of the history of witch hunts throughout the world. The book explores the origins of witch hunts, the social and political contexts that allowed them to occur, and the lasting impact they had on society. McWilliams argues that the witch hunts were not simply a relic of the past, but rather a phenomenon that continues to be relevant in modern times. He examines the ways in which witch hunts have been revived in different contexts, from the McCarthy era in the United States to the persecution of supposed witches in Africa and India. McWilliams also explores the ways in which witch hunts have been used as a tool of oppression, particularly against women and marginalized groups. The book is a powerful reminder of the dangers of intolerance and the importance of protecting individual rights and freedoms.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
