Sidonia the Sorceress. Transl. by Lady Wilde. by Wilhelm Meinhold
Fascinating book from four hundred years ago; a tale of an enlightened father raising an enlightened daughter who challenges the notions of male supremacy and omnipotence. Tried for being a witch; yet as she argues cogently her own defence she knows full well in so doing she is signing her own death warrant - plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose.....

Sidonia the Sorceress, Volume I of II by Wilhelm Meinhold, Fiction, Literary, Fairy Tales, Folk Tales, Legends & Mythology: 1 by Wilhelm Meinhold
Where's the sorcery? It wasn't bad, but it barely felt medieval. What was Rossetti thinking?

Sidonia the sorceress, the supposed destroyer of the whole reigning ducal house of Pomerania. Mary Schweidler the Amber witch by Johann Wilhelm Meinhold
"I don't know where one may turn for a stranger view of the Middle Ages, the quaint details of simple life, with sudden intervals of grotesque savagery. The most weird and barbarous things are made human and comprehensible. There is one incident which haunts one after one has read it..." --Through the Magic Door, pg. 228
