Descripción
Sumario:There have been numerous studies in recent decades of the medieval inquisitions, most emphasizing larger social and political circumstances and neglecting the role of the inquisitors themselves. In this volume, Karen Sullivan sheds much-needed light on these individuals and reveals that they had choices--both the choice of whether to play a part in the orthodox repression of heresy and, more frequently, the choice of whether to approach heretics with zeal or with charity. . In successive chapters on key figures in the Middle Ages--Bernard of Clairvaux, Dominic Guzmán, Conrad of Marbur.
