Produktbeschreibung
Henry Charles Lea's monumental work, "A History of the Inquisition of Spain," unfolds the intricate and often harrowing narrative of the Spanish Inquisition over four meticulously researched volumes. Written in a scholarly yet accessible style, Lea employs a comprehensive blend of primary sources, historical documentation, and critical analysis, delving into the sociopolitical and religious motives that fueled this notorious institution from its inception in the late 15th century. His examination not only chronicles the procedures and persecution inflicted upon the conversos and heretics but also situates the Inquisition within the broader context of European religious conflicts, making a significant contribution to the study of Spanish history and the evolution of ecclesiastical power. Lea, an American historian born in 1825, dedicated much of his career to understanding the forces that shape religious and civil liberties. His interest in the Inquisition, fueled by a commitment to social justice and an aversion to fanaticism, reflects the intellectual milieu of 19th-century America, characterized by a burgeoning interest in historical scholarship and social reform. Lea's rigorous methodology and passion for uncovering buried truths stem from both personal conviction and the prevalent Enlightenment ideals of his time. This work is an essential read for scholars, students, and anyone intrigued by the interplay of power, faith, and justice in human history. Lea's thorough exploration offers critical insights into the mechanisms of oppression, making it not only a historical account but also a cautionary tale about the consequences of intolerance and authoritarianism.

Autorenporträt
Henry Charles Lea (1825-1909) was an American historian, civic reformer, and political activist. He focused mainly on church history in the later Middle Ages, and on institutional, legal, and ecclesiastical history, as well as magic and witchcraft. Lea also did significant work on the history of the Italian city-states. His active writing career on historical subjects spanned more than fifty years, during which Lea published ten books and numerous articles. His literary reputation rests largely on those books. Highly disciplined work habits (and the ability to purchase manuscripts in Europe and Latin America and have them shipped to Philadelphia) led Lea to continue writing despite even headaches and eye problems. He became an authority on the Spanish Inquisition, and his multi-volume work was considered groundbreaking.
