Inquisition

by Edward Peters

A concise scholarly history that distinguishes the many tribunals called the Inquisition from the myth of a single sinister institution. Peters covers the medieval, Spanish, Portuguese and Roman inquisitions and shows how the legend of the Inquisition was created in later centuries.
