Records of the Spanish Inquisition, Translated from the Original Manuscripts

In “Records of the Spanish Inquisition, Translated from the Original Manuscripts,” Andrew Dickson White delivers a meticulous and scholarly examination of one of history's most infamous institutions. This work capitalizes on a wealth of primary sources, providing an unfiltered glimpse into the proceedings and socio-political complexities of the Inquisition. White'Äôs analytical prose, coupled with his emphasis on historical accuracy, situates the work within the broader discourse on religious intolerance and its consequences in the early modern world, making it not only a translation but a significant contribution to the field of historical inquiry. White, a prominent American historian and co-founder of Cornell University, possessed a keen interest in the relationship between religion and science, which likely influenced his decision to undertake this project. His rigorous academic background and advocacy for secularism fuel his critical perspective on the Inquisition, as he seeks to illuminate its impact on both individual lives and broader societal structures. White'Äôs commitment to presenting original documents fosters a transparent portrayal of a topic often shrouded in myth and misunderstanding. For readers interested in the intersection of religion, politics, and social justice, White's “Records of the Spanish Inquisition” serves as an invaluable resource. This book not only enriches our understanding of a pivotal historical period but also invites reflections on contemporary issues surrounding authority and morality, making it essential for scholars, students, and general readers alike.
