Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Blood on the Cobblestones: How Three Martyrs Sparked the First ReformationIn July 1412, three young men in Prague made a decision that would change European history forever. When Martin, Jan, and Stasek interrupted church services to protest the papal sale of indulgences, they could not have known their executions three days later would ignite a religious revolution that would burn across central Europe for decades.This meticulously researched narrative reconstruction reveals how a medieval indulgence campaign designed to fund the pope's Italian wars collided with an emerging reform movement led by the charismatic preacher Jan Hus. Drawing on chronicle evidence, theological treatises, and liturgical texts, the book traces the crisis from the arrival of papal bulls in May 1412 through the protesters' arrests, their rushed execution despite promises of safety, and the extraordinary funeral at Bethlehem Chapel where reformers claimed the right to declare martyrdom without Rome's permission.The story explores how three ordinary believers became founding saints of the Hussite church, how their deaths radicalized a theological movement into military resistance that would defeat five papal crusades, and how the 1412 crisis established patterns of reform and resistance that prefigured Martin Luther's Reformation by more than a century. This is the forgotten story of martyrdom, betrayal, and the birth of religious revolution in medieval Europe This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Jasper Hanebuth The Bandit: Broken On The WheelIn 1652, three years after the devastating Thirty Years' War, Mayor Johann Veltheim of Hanover faces a crisis: the former Swedish mercenary Jasper Hanebuth has turned to systematic banditry, terrorizing trade routes and murdering travelers. Veltheim launches an obsessive investigation, employing informants, surveillance, and ultimately torture to capture and prosecute the notorious criminal.Through Veltheim's detailed first-person account, we witness not just a manhunt but a profound moral reckoning. As the mayor uncovers Hanebuth's history-a veteran unable to reintegrate into civilian life after twenty-one years of military service, rejected by society, driven to crime by desperation-he confronts uncomfortable truths about systemic failure and shared culpability.The narrative culminates in Hanebuth's brutal execution by breaking wheel, meticulously documented according to the *Constitutio Criminalis Carolina*. But Veltheim finds no triumph in this victory. Instead, he grapples with whether he administered justice or merely perpetuated the cycle of violence the war created. His final reflections acknowledge that while individual criminals can be eliminated, the conditions that produce them-veteran abandonment, economic collapse, normalized brutality-remain unaddressed, ensuring the wheel of violence will turn again.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Challenging dominant views of early childhood language development and knowledge, this thought-provoking volume illuminates the importance of place, the body, and movement in opening space for young childrens improvisatory, creative, playful language practices.Bringing together a rich collection of contemporary research and diverse perspectives, the book centers on the premise that where talk happensbe it spoken, mimed, signed, or assisted through one or more communication toolsis not a neutral backdrop or controllable variable. Rather, it is deeply entangled in the emergence of language from bodies, in how these vocalizations make their way into the world, what they might feel like and set into motion, and how they are received, heard and listened to by other humans and by non-humans. Chapter authors introduce theories about language, body, and place, while also providing examples of what this work may look like in practice.This book is key reading for those who work with young children and families, including teachers, pre-service teachers studying child development, speech and language therapists, support workers, and those in the arts, cultural and environmental sectors. It is also highly relevant to researchers, literacy education scholars, and anyone who endeavors to think more expansively and critically about language and literacy in early childhood contexts. Challenging dominant views of early childhood language development and knowledge, this thought-provoking volume illuminates the importance of place, the body, and movement in opening space for young childrens improvisatory, creative, playful language practices.
