European witchcraft

The book The Iron Trail was created by Holly Black and Cassandra Clare in 2014. The main character, Call, had magical powers that could be dangerous if not under control. His mother went to the Magisterium before, but did not come out alive. Her husband was in shock and did not want Call to go, so he told Call to fail the test purposely, for he was persuaded that it was deadly and it was abnormal. Call actually failed at failing and was sent to the Magisterium. The main story took place at the…

Salam Witch Trials is a huge example of McCarthyism because the witch trial accused girls and woman of strange witch-like activity that was normal at that time. The Salam Witch trials started in 1682. It all started when someone was accused of Witchcraft.

Hello, and thanks for reading. I just joined Blue Moon today, but I'm a long time writer/roleplayer with a good deal of experience in writing and roleplaying online.

While I am not new to writing/roleplaying, I am new HERE, so please excuse any missteps, and feel…

I was given the task of interviewing a prisoner at a local jail in our community. In the beginning of the interview the prisoner just wanted to share his experience on the way people are treated in the system. After spending time with the inmate, he began to trust me and wanted to share some important information with me. The young man explained he had overheard a few of the prisoners talking about a potential break out that was going to take place in the prison later that night. He felt that…

The Landlady Have you ever noticed a deer's head on a wall, or a bear as a carpet. Well the landlady in the story The Landlady has done more than that. She has stuffed things herself.

Good Night and Good Luck directed by George Clooney was a dramatic film which was based off of real events that occurred during the 1950’s. During this period in America, McCarthyism was in full effect. McCarthyism itself was making accusations of disloyalty and began when senator Joseph R. McCarthy exposed communists in the United States which is also known as the “Red Scare”. The film shows the differences between the senator and a CBS television journalist named Edward R. Murrow, what also…

From the movie, “Iron Jawed Angels”, there were many themes. One theme in particular was women used many different methods to earn the right to vote in the Women’s Suffrage Unit. One of the methods was the parade held in Washington DC. The Parade was when Wilson arrived so many people would be there to watch. Unfortunately, many of the men were drunk and they started attacking the women. The police did nothing about it and the women were injured. The parade was kind of a fail, but many people…

This was called “souling” and the children were called “souliers”. You might think that this practice, then simply migrated along with Europeans to the United States. But trick or treating didn’t re-emerge until the 1920s and 1930s. It paused for a bit during World War II because of sugar rations, and it’s now back in full force. The term “trick or treat” dates back to 1927. Hallowe’en provided…

In life, people have the freedom and right to do what they please. Whether one decides to be good or evil is up to them. A bad person is someone who is selfish and lies without any regard to how it may affect another. Niccolo Machiavelli once said, “All men are evil and will act upon their vicious nature if given the chance.” Authors use allegory and symbolism in their writing to get a hidden point across and leave it up to the reader’s interpretation. In the playwright The Crucible by Arthur…
