This book explores the Papal Inquisition in Modena and the status of Jews in an early modern Italian duchy. Its purpose is to deepen existing insights into the role of the former and thus lead to a better understanding of how the tribunal assumed jurisdiction over a practicing Jewish community in the seventeenth century.
