A brilliantly funny, laugh-out-loud story about a missing cake, a pack of criminally-minded, cake-stealing penguins and a little boy with a talent for the tallest of tales!

What lessons can we learn from witch beliefs and witch-hunts in primitive societies and in earlier times? This cross-cultural survey of witchcraft aims to provide undergraduate students of anthropology and history with a comprehensive introduction to the figure of the witch.

Starting with a comparison of Queens Elizabeth I and Victoria, this title examines works by poets and painters, essayists and dramatists, architects and musicians. It explores the literary nature of Victorian history writing, and author reveals the degree to which painters were indebted to written records both fictional and factual.

This study of Dickens in relation to his period shows how deeply he reflected its vibrant novelty, and how his works transform the social and cultural stimuli of the time - technological enterprise, urbanization, class mobility, the sense of profound difference from the preceding age - into a new and flexible fictional form.

Fourth volume in the Dickens Companions series, offering comprehensive annotation of the novel A Tale of Two Cities.
