The History of the Inquisition, as It Is Exercised at Goa (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes readers on a harrowing journey into the dark underbelly of the Portuguese Inquisition in the 17th century. The author, a man wrongfully imprisoned for his beliefs, provides a firsthand account of the horrors he endured at the hands of the Holy Office. His vivid descriptions of the brutal methods of torture, the oppressive atmosphere of the Inquisition's prisons, and the corruption of the inquisitors themselves serve as a chilling indictment of this institution. The author's personal experience shines a light on the hypocrisy of the Inquisition, which claimed to uphold religious purity but in practice used its power to persecute those deemed heretical, often based on flimsy accusations. He exposes the practice of coercing confessions through torture and the manipulation of witnesses, laying bare the machinery of injustice that operated under the guise of righteousness. The book's unflinching portrayal of the Inquisition's practices and the author's resilience in the face of persecution offers a powerful reminder of the dangers of unchecked power and the importance of speaking truth to authority. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332941476_0
