The Inquisitors
The Story of the Grand Inquisitors of the Spanish Inquisition
Paperback EN 2007 9780752444086Samenvatting
The electrifying personal and career histories of the principal Grand Inquisitors of the Spanish Inquisition, on whose orders, tens of thousands were imprisoned, tortured and burnt at the stake.
The mentality of Spain's Inquisitors has fascinated people for centuries. Yet remarkably little has been written about these individuals, who together condemned thousands of people to degradation, imprisonment and death. John Edwards, a renowned expert on the Spanish Inquisition, investigates the Inquisitors, both as personalities from psychopaths to soulless bureaucrats and as actors in the turbulent history of Spain between 1480, when the Inquisition started work, and its final abolition in 1834. The Inquisitors is the story of extraordinary religious personalities, and a history of Spain at a deep psychological level.
