Throughout the pages of \u003cem\u003eMedieval and Early Modern Punishments\u003c\/em\u003e, English author and historian William Andrews runs the reader through a veritable gauntlet of nefarious devices and practices. From the relatively tame stocks to the horrors of the rack and other such instruments, Andrews recounts all the sordid and grisly details. Although sure to satisfy the reader's morbid curiosity, \u003cem\u003eMedieval and Early Modern Punishments is\u003c\/em\u003e not limited to its shock value, but is also an enlightening study of how societies have discouraged crime and maintained order. While most of the practices described in this book have thankfully gone out of fashion, \u003cem\u003eMedieval and Early Modern Punishments \u003c\/em\u003einvites the reader to consider the various instruments of more subtle means of social control that have taken their place. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 316\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.88 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 28, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45431521214566,"sku":"9798886770292","price":48.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/AfFy0IMvbu9798886770292.webp?v=1775782027","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/medieval-and-early-modern-punishments-an-illustrated-history-hardcover","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
