Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Inquisition of Spain, Vol. 2 of 4 The ayuda do costa, of which we hear so much, was either a more or less definite increase of salary, or a special gift for cause, or else a simple mood or benevolence. While the salary was a matter fixed and due, the ayuda was always to a certain extent arbitrary and was used as an incentive to compel the performance of duties regarded as onerous. We see the germ of it in Torquemada's instructions of 1485, prohibiting fees and bribes, for the king pro vides a reasonable support for all and in time will give them mercedes.' An advance is marked in the Instructions of 1498 where, after specifying salaries, it is added that the inquisitors general, when they see that there is much labor or necesdty, can grant such ayudas de costs as they deem proper.' Accord ingly about this time, while we find no regular ayudas given, there are constant examples of special ones, sometimes of large amounts, granted for the most varied reasons, of which two or three instances will sufiice. Thus Ferdinand, April 30, 1499, in ordering the payment of the salaries in Seville, includes maravedis of ayudas de costs for one of the inquisitors, but none for any one else. August 10, 1502, Juan Royz, receiver of Sara gossa, is given an ayuda de costs of sueldos to meet expenses incurred in illness and, on September 27th, an official of Seville is gratified with maravedis to help him in his marriage.'

This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Inquisition of Spain, Vol. 1 of 4 IN the following pages I have sought to trace, from the original sources as far as Mble, the character and career of an institu tion which exercised no small influence on the fate of Spain and even, one may say, indirectly on the civilised world. The material for this is preserved so superabundantly in the immense Spanish archives that no one writer can pretend to exhaust the subject. There can be no finality in a history resting on so vast a mass of inedited documents and I do not flatter myself that I have accomplished such a result, but I am not without h0pe that what I have drawn from them and from the labors of previous scholars has enabled me to present a fairly accurate survey of one of the most remarkable organizations recorded in human annals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Inquisition of Spain, Vol. 3 of 4 To the modern mind the judicial use of torture, as a means of ascertaining truth, is so repellant and illogical that we are apt to forget that it has, from the most ancient times, been practised by nearly all civilized nations. With us the device of the jury has relieved the judge of the responsibility resting upon him in other systems of jurisprudence. That responsibility had to be met; a decision had to be reached, even in the most doubtful cases and, where evidence was defective and conflicting, the use of torture as an expedient to obtain a confession, or, by its endurance, to indicate innocence, has seemed, until modern times, after the disuse of compurgation and the judgements of God, to be the only means of relieving the judicial conscience. It was admitted to be dangerous and fallacious, to be employed only with circumspection, but there was nothing to take its place. That it should be used by the Inquisition was a matter of course, for the crime of heresy was often one peculiarly difficult to prove; confession was sought in all cases and, from the middle of the thirteenth century, the habitual employment of torture by the Holy Office had been the most efficient factor in spreading its use throughout Christendom, at the expense of the obsolescent Barbarian customs. It is true that Spain was loath to admit the innovation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Inquisition of the Middle Ages, Vol. 1 of 3 NO serious historical work is worth the writing or the read ing unless it conveys a moral, but to be useful the moral must develop itself in the mind of the reader without being obtruded upon him. Especially is this the case in a history treating of a subject which has called forth the fiercest passions Of man, arous ing alternately his highest and his basest impulses. I have not paused to moralize, but I have missed my aim if the events nar rated are not so presented as to teach their appropriate lesson.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Spanish Inquisition The name of the Count Joseph De Maitre, is a name, which was long well known, and is still honoured, in the circles of Statesmen; and in the schools of Diplomacy. In both of these, he long acted a conspicuous part. During a considerable number of years, he held, in his own country, the highest offices of State, - was successively, Minister of Justice, Chancellor, &c., - conciliating, by the wisdom, and prudence, of his conduct, the universal esteem, and approbation, of the nation. Subsequently, he was appointed, and sent, Ambassador to the Court of St. Petersburg, where he continued to reside, during the long term of fourteen years, - admired for his great talents; and beloved for his amiable virtues. He died, in 1822. The present accomplished Duchess of Laval is his daughter. In the walks of Literature, the Count is alike distinguished, as he was in the schools of Politics. His works are various, and numerous. And if, indeed, the display of talents, eloquence, and learning; - if originality, and refinement, of sentiment; if close reasoning, and sound philosophy, are the characteristics of interesting, and useful, works, - it may confidently be asserted, that there are few authors, whose writings better deserve these praises than those of the Count De Maitre. His works are, for the most part, political. But, they are, all of them, devoted to the cause of humanity; and to the interests of religion.
