"Inquisition"... A word shrouded in grim legends. It is attributed with numerous executions, horrific tortures, and thousands of innocent victims. But is it all so unequivocal? In his book, Sergey Nechaev objectively examines this phenomenon and thoroughly describes the history... of the Inquisition, beginning with its origins. The author relies on the works of historians, documents from the Middle Ages, and the testimonies of contemporaries. He tells about the high-profile trials of Joan of Arc and Gilles de Rais, as well as the Spanish Inquisition, which is traditionally (and is it fairly?) considered the most brutal. This book is an excellent means to view well-known events of the past and historical figures from an unusual angle, as well as to improve one's educational background and form one's own opinion about an important component of European history.
