What Is The Elizabeth Bathory Case

Improved Essays
Elizabeth Bathory is the world’s most known villain of Hungary. With knowing that she would Abduct kids from their own homes to torture them. Why would people want to help her kill helpless young girls? Overall I believe that there should have been more of a consequence than what she had got.

Elizabeth lived in a mansion and when she couldn’t get out of bed for depression reasons she would have Anna bring children to the mansion and bite chunks out of their faces just for the enjoyment. Anna would have them burned for Elizabeth and when she ran out of kids she would go to villages and take helpless children from the nobility who had less money than the rest. Elizabeth Bathory is one of the biggest serial killers in history. She was accused

    During the Salem witch trials, over two hundred people were accused of using witchcraft and twenty people were executed. Even those who were innocent were hanged because they refused to falsely confess to the crime that they didn’t commit. Those who were accused of using witchcraft and confessed to doing it would presumably have their name blackened in the village. Despite women being the most vulnerable to being accused of witchery during this period, the most responsible person for the dreadful hangings is a woman. Her name is Abigail Williams, one of the primary accusers of the Salem witch trials of 1692.…

    Three Sovereigns for Sarah What I find interesting about this movie is the mere fact it did not touch on the European witch trials, which preceded the Salem witch trials in an attempt tried to minimize the atrocities committed during the witch hunts. In the movie, Three Sovereigns for Sarah, the most contributing factors of the Salem Witch Trials were King James, lack of education, and lack or respect for women. To put it briefly, the British senate passed a law that made witchcraft punishable by death in 1542. After this law was revoked, another law in 1562 was enacted.…

In the play, The Crucible, by Arthur Miller, Abigail, Mary Warren, and Elizabeth experience treatment that is unique to that time period.

    There are many reasons as to why John Proctor was killed. One of the many reasons are the girls Abigail Williams and Mary Warren. Each girl can be accused as to being the reason for his death, but Abigail and Mary are connected. Abigail’s love for John and her power over Mary Warren and the other girls are reasons for his death, along with Mary’s weakness. Mary easily falls to Abby’s power and this causes Mary to say and do things that get John killed.…

    Damned Women Summary

    • 889 Words
    • 4 Pages

    In Damned Women: Sinners and Witches in Puritan New England, Elizabeth Reis thoroughly discussed how the Puritan religion played a role in shaping the lives of the Puritan individuals. Puritanism had stressed women as having the role of only obeying their husband and tending to both the children and the household. Women who followed the Puritan religion were supposed to abide by the standards determined by God; those who did not abide were condemned as the ones who were found to be greatly possessed by Satan and were the ones who had been accused of participating in witchcraft. Therefore, the gender stereotypical ideals that Puritanism portrayed had been a key factor in why Puritan women were more likely to be possessed by Satan and accused of witchcraft.…

    The legend of Erzsébet Báthory’s alleged slaughter of up to 650 Hungarian peasant girls is not terra incognita for film; from 1971’s Countess Dracula, 1981’s Night of the Werewolf, to 2006’s Stay Alive, her tale has been sensationalized and embellished beyond recognition. Often cited as the inspiration behind the vampire subgenre of horror films, the fable goes that Erzsébet (or Elizabeth, as it’s frequently anglicized.), a wealthy Countess of 17th Century Hungary, was a terribly vain and cruel woman, who murdered hundreds of peasant girls to bathe in their virgin blood as she believed it would preserve her beauty. Most films that feature Báthory’s likeness tend to follow this standard plotline, however 2009’s The Countess suggests otherwise.…

    These women that were accused did not fit into the norm of society due to their independence from patriarchal norms, specifically elderly women that lived outside the parameters of the patriarchal family. The suspect issue that surrounded these women were that they often never gave birth or married, leading them to create a sub-set of English social hierarchy that was unable to mesh into the traditional, male-dominated, immediate family unit that was so prominent in English society. Another reason why elderly women were so vulnerable to the accusations of witchcraft were that as they aged and became more dependent on other people, her neighbors in the community would have to pick up the burden that normally her immediate family would; “The…

    Elizabeth has been portrayed in the play as a woman who is only a victim of her husband’s adultery. Although this is correct, Elizabeth feels that she may not have relations with her husband now that he has cheated on her. Throughout Elizabeth’s life, she has tried to be a good, Puritan woman. By John cheating on her, she has not been a valuable enough wife. Previously shown, sexual repression has caused characters to seek satisfaction in others’ sexual attention, but in Elizabeth’s case we see her sexual repression has caused her to draw away from her husband, thinking that she is not good enough for him.…

    The Lifeboat Dilemma There were several issues involving ethics in The Queen v. Dudley and Stephens case. The case facts are subject to a major ethical issue involving whether it is ethical to kill a man to save three. Some would argue that when given a situation where at least one person will die, we should try to save as many human lives as possible. Others should state that the value of human life is immeasurable. Who are we to decide if one life is equal to another?…
