Edwards John

Summary

 

John Edwards: Torkvemada and the Inquisitors

One fact, however, is striking to anyone who studies the personalities of the leading inquisitors between 1478 and the nineteenth century, and that is that the great figures of the Inquisition appeared only in earlier times. Later inquisitors were lawyers rather than theologians, bureaucrats rather than ideologues, although this did not stop the establishment of an inquisition for art and literature. Just as the inquisitors in most cases did not succeed in penetrating the minds of their prisoners, so neither can the scientist penetrate their minds. It is obvious that the very capable Spaniards, while passionately exercising the divine prerogatives of life and death, believed that they were serving both God and the crown. The reason they did what they did remains locked in the hearts of El Senor Inquisidor.
