For centuries witchcraft has frightened and at the same time fascinated people: since ancient times they wrote spells, turning them to the gods, believed in witches and looked for them among their own neighbors, tried to protect themselves from the influence of the supernatural. But how do you recognize a sorcerer who has made a deal with the devil? How have witches been persecuted, tried, and punished throughout history? And what role did the brutal Spanish Inquisition, led by Tomas de Torquemada, play in the fight against demonic forces? This book opens the door to the dark, harsh world of the late Middle Ages and early modern times, full of superstition, midnight horrors, witchcraft rituals and the fires of the Inquisition.
The collection contains three iconic works dealing with these and other issues of witch-hunting history: "The Hammer of the Witches" by G. Kramer and J. Sprenger, "Witchcraft Trials in Europe and the Russian Empire" by J. Kantorovich and R. Sabatini's Torquemada and the Spanish Inquisition.
