A Brief History of Human Torture

This book is definitely a masterpiece of abuse [laughing] Don't be fooled by the cover. The setting is rigorous and the logic is smooth. Especially the characters are extremely vividly drawn. From time to time, beautiful pictures are interspersed to facilitate readers' understanding [almost crying]

In fact, it is not a novel, but it can supplement historical knowledge and is a good book that can arouse reflection. The longer you read, the better. This book is really good. Many torture instruments are difficult to imagine based on words alone, but with pictures, it becomes clear. Without pictures and relevant historical introduction, it would be a bit difficult to understand and watch.

A very meaningful book. The content is very comprehensive, and I feel very pitiful for those innocent victims. I am very lucky to be born in modern times, (´◑д◐｀)

It's a very good novel, recommended by Wall Crack. I recommended it to my friends, and they all said yes. There are also immortal couples in this book, such as Louis XVI and the Guillotine, which are very vividly described, and there are picture introductions. I got a deeper understanding of this book and found that it is a very good book. It uses words and pictures to allow readers to feel what is written more intuitively, and the connotation is quite profound. It not only introduces torture in human history, but also allows people to understand the differences between Chinese and Western cultures, and allows people to see the wisdom of the ancients. Among them, there are many enviable love stories, such as Louis XVI and the guillotine, and the bronze bull and its inventor, who used their lives to bring joy to the world. A beautiful love story with only 24 short chapters, but the connotation of this book is by no means as simple as it appears. Why are there such cruel punishments? What kind of thoughts and mentality did the inventor have when he invented it? Why were people at that time so interested in watching other people being tortured? We need to reflect on what the original intention of these tortures was. Is it to stabilize the ruler's position or to please the ruler? But do the victims really deserve it? What if a stupid and cruel ruler uses cruel punishments on innocent people to satisfy his perverted habits? How did people at that time view their compatriots who suffered unreasonable disasters and torture because of the cruel and unkind rulers? The birth of torture may have been to better deter the people below and let them see the miserable state of their compatriots. I can't afford to resist, but because of the stupidity of the rulers, torture on people will become a tool for fun. Even without these tortures, there will be other births. Perhaps the existence of torture is necessary. When a person commits a heinous crime and arouses everyone's anger, It is necessary to torture them to calm people's anger, but torture should not be a tool used by some people for fun. Different ways of using the same object will bring different effects. Those instruments of torture are just objects, and it depends on how to use them. That's all I understand. My understanding of this book is too shallow. There are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people. Different people have different understandings. Even if they have different understandings, it is undeniable that this is a very good book. The end of human torture symbolizes people's transition from barbarism to civilization.

It had a big impact on me. It really opened my eyes. After watching it, I felt that the wrinkles on my brain were smoothed and stretched, and I felt instantly relaxed, like walking in a Norwegian forest [laughs]

It's very beautiful, there are a lot of knives, and the outlook of the book is relatively positive, but the exquisite illustrations are a bit overwhelming. Generally speaking, I just can't accept the notes about knives. If you like knives, that's a different story [laughs]

Watching this puts me in my place, feeling painful and disgusting, but also a little bit excited and feeling like a pervert [face covering] After reading it, even though I may feel a bit bt in my heart, I still hope to live in a peaceful and happy era.

It's very good. It popularizes various ancient tortures and understands the motivations, purposes, and benefits of people using torture.

After reading this book, my scalp was numb, I was sweating all over, I was dizzy, my limbs were weak, I was frightened, I felt weak all over, I felt hot all over, I had an irregular heartbeat, I had difficulty breathing, and my head hurt. Overall, this book is okay (for some Wolf Killers) [face covering]

After reading this book, I finally know what the real pure knife without sugar is.

It's great, great, I have gained more knowledge, I like it very much [love] [love] [love]

It's really exciting. There is nothing scary about the pictures. Most of them are drawings and there are no bloody scenes. The author also said in the book that it is to criticize killing and torture, not to seek novelties. You should be grateful to your motherland [crying]

While reading this book, I found that the execution was so damn gentle.

This is a good book and worth reading. I am currently reading it for the second time, and I have benefited a lot. It can be seen that the author has introduced each criminal law very carefully, with detailed introductions, pictures, background stories, etc., And has also written down the complexity of human nature.

I didn't dare to watch it before, and I felt uncomfortable with it. Then I read the beginning and felt a little disgusted as I continued reading. I did feel a kind of insult and contempt for people. Then I saw the picture of cutting a person in half... It was disgusting. So just read the summary at the end of the article. The editor's intention is to ask what we can do for the development of human history. Why does torture still exist in human society? Is turning a blind eye to the tragedy equivalent to a kind of acquiescence? Very thoughtful~ Finally, I want to say something. Those who watch or love watching are not necessarily BT. As long as they can contribute to society and do not do anything harmful to society, they are good compatriots. Haha

Louis 16 and Guillotine are locked together🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚 🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚 🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚 🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚

Damn, I shivered after reading it in the middle of the night, so I came to write a book review. Although there are some words in it that are worth thinking about, from the perspective of a bystander, it is a bit scary. Mainly because I have cheap hands. Click on the image to enlarge it and I almost vomited. To be honest, what I wrote is a pure narrative. Alas, I shivered after reading it. I got goosebumps under the quilt. I recommend reading it. Physical and mental abuse is the most essential abuse.

A very interesting book, not only about various cruel punishments, but also a lot of detailed history. What's more interesting is to read it together with the comment area. Some people do it to expand their knowledge, some people do it for curiosity, some people feel sick, some people feel excited, and the author wants to make people think about the possible causes behind all this.

This book is very rich in historical materials, and the author's views are objective and thought-provoking. It allowed me to see the bloodshed of the feudal era, the ignorance and distortion of the people, and the cruel horror of torture. People in both China and the West have been persecuted. The people who invented torture are twisted and perverted. We must also remember their suffering and not let these tortures come back to harm the people.

It's great, I want to recommend it to my good brothers [laughing evilly]

It's a good book, but I don't recommend reading it before going to bed.

It's so good, but it would be nice to have more content. It's still a little short of the torture encyclopedia in the history books [laughing evilly] [OK]

Really good! I learned it, I will try it tomorrow (｡ò ∀ó｡) My family wishes me good luck! ! !

A very nice book, thought-provoking.

If it were just words, I couldn't imagine the painful scene. If it was just pictures, I couldn't imagine how it was used. Pictures can more intuitively see the pain that those who were tortured had to endure, and words will go deeper in this aspect. During the reading process, I really subconsciously became myself. I should really be grateful that I was lucky enough to be born in a good country and a good era. It did not make me the victim, executioner or bystander like in the article. Who understands the pain I felt after watching half of it for eight hours [crying]

It shows the history of human use of torture and the types of torture with pictures and texts. It covers a wide time span and is rich in content. It is not only a reflection on torture, but also an interrogation of human nature and human society. It is worth reading.

I stayed up late reading this book, and in the meantime I looked up some English history. Generally speaking, as an academic work, it is full of various black humor and metaphors originating from literary satire. It can only be said that the author has good intentions. A single argument cannot simply give people an intuitive feeling, but the feeling of "hell" mixed with it is even more impressive. At the moment, I have only seen the part about Henry VIII. It's too late and I'll watch it tomorrow.

It's very interesting to watch. I gained a lot of insights after reading it. I have already recommended it to my friends. Bless you🙏🏻

Very tasty and pretty (｡･ω･｡)ﾉ♡ He gave me the motivation to live, please give it a try. (ง •̀_•́)ง

Come and take a look, everyone, it's a very good knife! My heart and body ached like needles. [I'm about to cry] [I'm about to cry] [I'm about to cry] The author is also very considerate and has pictures. [Blowing kiss]
