Download or read book Two Death Sentences by the Inquisition Tribunal of Malta 1639 written by Kenneth Gambin and published by Midsea Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Besides fighting Protestant doctrines, the setting up of the Roman Inquisition in 1542 was also aimed at introducing a sense of correct behaviour and beliefs expected from all Christians. The Inquisition was lenient with first-time offenders or with those who showed genuine signs of repentance. In those rare cases where the accused insisted in their errors, however, the instructions were clear: the obstinate and stubborn unrepentant who refused to be reconciled to the Church had to be handed to the secular court to be burned alive.

Download or read book Women s Prophetic Writings in Seventeenth Century Britain written by Carme Font and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-04-28 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines women’s prophetic writings in seventeenth-century Britain as the literary outcome of a discourse of social transformation that integrates religious conscience, political participation, and gender identity. The following pages approach prophecy as a culture, a language, and a catalyst for collective change as the individual prophet conceptualized it. While the corpus of prophetic writing continues to grow as the result of archival research, this monograph complements our particular knowledge of women’s prophecy in the seventeenth century with a global assessment of what makes speech prophetic in the first place, and what are the differences and similarities between texts that fall into the prophetic mode. These disparities and commonalities stand out in the radical language of prophecy as well as in the way it creates an authorial centre. Examining how authorship is represented in several configurations of prophetic delivery, such as essays on prophecy, poetic prophecy, spiritual autobiography, and election narratives, the different chapters consider why prophecy peaked in the years of the civil wars and how it evolved towards the eighteenth century. The analyses extrapolate the peculiarities of each case study as being representative of a form of textually-based activism that enabled women to gain a deeper understanding of themselves as creators of independent meaning that empowered them as individuals, citizens, and believers.
