"An Unusual Inquisition": Translated Documents from Heinricus Institoris’s Witch Hunts in Ravensburg and Innsbruck: Studies in Central European Histories, cartea 67

Autor Christopher S. Mackay
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 22 iul 2020
Heinricus Institoris is the major author of the Malleus Maleficarum, the best known early-modern textbook on witchcraft. This work was heavily influenced by Institoris's activities as inquisitor in Ravensburg in 1484 and Innsbruck in 1485. This volume contains the only complete translations of a large number of documents pertaining to these inquisitions, and is a companion to a new (and the only complete) edition of these texts, which shed much light on the composition of the Malleus Maleficarum in general.

Recenzii

"This is an exceptionally rich collection of material, translated into clear, accessible English. Read along with Mackay’s introduction situating the sources in their political, social, and intellectual context, the text will be an excellent and stimulating resource for both graduate and undergraduate students of early witch hunting. This is top-notch scholarship." - Richard Raiswell, in: Renaissance and Reformation / Renaissance et Réforme, volume 44, issue 3 (2021)
