the history of the Inquisition, starting from its origins. The author relies on the works of historians, documents from the Middle Ages, and testimonies of contemporaries.

This book is an excellent means to view well-known historical events and figures from an unusual angle, as well as to enhance one’s erudition and form one’s own opinion on an important aspect of European history.
