Ekaterina Mishanenkova is a historian and reconstructor, researcher of medieval life and manners, author of popular science books about the Middle Ages. Facts and fictions about this amazing era are mixed so much that to separate them sometimes from each other is almost unreal.
In his new book "Criminal Middle Ages" the author will tell about the most high-profile criminal cases, the process of investigation and the fate of lawbreakers, many of whom were quite unusual people. Did the Inquisition burn witches? How many survived God's judgment? Was it true that rapists had their genitals cut off and chatty women were tied to a chair and dunked headfirst into a river? Were Vikings paid off for a murder committed? What did the court do with unmarried pregnant maidens? Could a knight really kill any commoner with impunity? About all this in the new book of the series "History and Science in Detail".
