Whenever history is shaped by someone who failed and writes a book while hiding from it, it does not end well.

This is about Heinrich Kramer, the writer of "Malleus Maleficarum".

Why is Daddy allowed to wave his big stick around? Think about it.

“I mean, he can’t seriously complain”, Layla would sing into my ears. “He was still given a small job in the middle of nowhere, had a roof above his head, and clothes and food. Daddy is kind, if you’re not a little girl.”

"We’re not burning witches in this post, but the books and whole work of a medieval monk, who seemingly miscalculated his impact on the world. Have you ever heard of Nicholas de Artrecourt? Sounds sympathetic, right? Like an early modern thinker, a hero that was antagonized by the church enslaving the people, right? Let’s see how that fits!"

Another witching history post! This one is about books that burned, and a crippling sense of doubt about the world! Come back with me and my witch into the 14th century!

Still reading about black cats in medieval times, and I think Mira is getting worried.

„I want to wave Daddy‘s big stick“, my witch giggles over my shoulder. „It‘s so unfair to be a girl.“

I have found two main reasons for this, and both are disturbing!

#writing #blogging #witch #history #historyblog

https://mistresswitchwrites.wordpress.com/2023/04/03/why-witches-wear-pointy-hats/

Why do we want to know about the past?

Has preserving information a worth on its own,or is it simply a tool to question our present state?

What do we write history for? Whose history are we writing?

I found myself lost in a weird argumentation in class today, so maybe it's time for a historiography blog post?!

My mother always warned me of doing my laundry between Christmas and New Year's. But did she know that we missed out on the chance to trap a god, a ghost or even a demon in our garden?

Here is my new post! A few surprising facts about witch hunts!

"For accuracy, check the weather and the fields outside and make sure to threaten the neighbour with the ugliest mole!"

Finally, it's time for a bit of witching research!

Ancient cities have always fascinated me. In Europe, medieval times started to build them late in comparison, and dirty, little growth holds so many stories!

Looking at my favourite kind of architecture with my witch to prepare for a trip to Budapest.

"Leaves and flowers into abstraction were used as a way to save the soul in drastically changing times."

This was not the most informative, haunted, heartbreaking history post I have written, but it was just supposed to keep up the routine and keep my brain working in the right way to write these things more often! So, I'm glad I wrote it, and I think we will revisit this ghost a few more times!

History glimpse!

In this new post, my witch and I encounter a pretty place, haunted by someone with some truly unfinished business!

This castle window feels like an invitation to sing much too loud and by any chance get rescued by the love of your love before being executed for witchcraft, you know what I mean?

Asking a 17th century housewife: "how is the weather back there?" And it turned out kind of interesting!

In my new post, I take a look at the little ice age and how it shaped history.

Originally witches were believed to fly on any object, but broomsticks where those to become typical. In my new post I look at why!

Attending Walpurgisnacht was believed to be a real crime, that included nothing less than sey with demons and eating (or drinking) dead babies.

I find it important to check on these images we are so used to. Where to they come from? What do they mean?

In this case, one reasons is oddly funny, while the other one is disturbing.

Let's get ready for Walpurgisnacht!

Here I look into classic demonology for what is actually required to attend. It gets fucking dark, as always!

This large building has dominated the first block of South Broadway in New Philadelphia, Ohio since its construction and, when it was built, was considered state-of-the-art. I thought I would explore its construction and how it became the focal point of an early 20th century Ohio Supreme Court case.

Got an automated email from my website this morning with stats and only now realized that, in the last three+ years, I've posted 200+ family history and local history stories on my website. Writing them has been my way of relaxing and nourishing my brain. I'm just happy people read them!
