Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book studies the origins of the Inquisition and its procedural rules. The Inquisition was a unique court whose sole purpose was to investigate, prosecute, and punish the crime of heresy. Heresy was considered a threat to the Catholic Church and to the established social order, and the Inquisition was seen as a necessary tool to combat it. The author argues that the reasons that motivated the establishment of the Inquisition were both historical and political. The historical context is marked by the emergence of organized and influential heresy within the Christian society, which led the Papacy to establish a permanent judicial figure, the inquisitor judge. The political aspect refers to the precarious situation of the Papacy in light of the aggressive policy of Emperor Frederick II who intended to weaken the Pope by assuming jurisdiction over heresy cases and, in doing so, diminishing both the Church's power and its financial resources. The book also provides a thorough analysis of the Inquisition's procedures. It makes use of previously unknown sources that shed light on aspects of the judicial process that have remained obscure. By bringing together these diverse elements, the book offers a more complete understanding of the Inquisition and the reasons behind its historical importance.
