Zwei FÃ rderer des Hexenwahns und Ihre Ehrenrettung Durch die Ultramontane
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes an in-depth look at the historical persecution and killing practices of suspected witches and sorcerers across Europe during the Renaissance and early modern periods. While this tragic and terrifying chapter in human history is often associated with the brutality of the Spanish Inquisition, the author unravels the role of the Catholic Dominicans, particularly their influential guidebook, the Malleus Maleficarum, in fueling widespread hysteria and violence against accused witches. Specifically, the book focuses on a key passage from the Malleus Maleficarum that explains the supposed connection between women's natural inferiority to men and their susceptibility to witchcraft. This concept, rooted in misogyny and a deep-seated fear of female sexuality, provided a powerful justification for the persecution and execution of thousands of women across Europe for centuries. Through meticulous research, the book uncovers the ideological underpinnings of the witch hunts, tracing their origins back to ancient and medieval beliefs about women and the occult. By delving into the historical and cultural context of this phenomenon, the author sheds light on the complex interplay between religious dogma, social anxieties, and the suppression of women in Western societies. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of witchcraft and the enduring legacy of misogyny. It offers a nuanced understanding of this dark period, highlighting the tragic consequences of superstition, fear, and the persecution of marginalized groups in the name of religious purity. 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 # 9780267580446_0
