Inhalt:
This three-volume history of the medieval Inquisition by American scholar Henry Charles Lea, first published in 1888, was firmly based on primary sources, & adopted a rationalist approach that departed from the pious tone of earlier histories of the middle ages. Lea was convinced that the Inquisition was not arbitrarily devised & implemented but was an inevitable consequence of forces that were dominant in 13th century Christian society. In Volume 2 Lea focuses mainly on the Inquisition in France, Iberia, Italy & Germany. He delves into the relationship between religion & State in the Languedoc region & describes how the University of Paris obstructed the Inquisition's activity. Lea notes that there was almost no Inquisition presence in Portugal, while in Italy sporadic popular opposition to the Inquisition was noticeable.
