Inquisitions, Jews, and the Formation of a Persecuting Society

'tis but a scratch: fact and fiction about the Middle Ages - En podcast af Richard Abels

Send us a textIn this episode Ellen and I compare medieval Inquisitions with the Spanish Inquisition, and both with the popular conception of the Inquisition. Among other subjects, we discuss what an inquisition was--and is--, how inquisitions served as a tool in the formation of a persecuting society, and why it is not quite accurate to see either the medieval or the Spanish Inquisition as targeting Jews--or, at least, Jews as Jews.
