Добрый день!
Решили отметить девичник в номере Амстердам в Crazy отеле на Алтуфьевском шоссе.
Во-первых, в коридоре от ресепшена вплоть до номера стоит резкий туалетный запах, неприятно. Оформлен отель неплохо, номер сам понравился. Девушка, которая провожала нас до номера, объяснила нам правила и была вежлива и приветлива.
Потом начались проблемы с аппаратурой (при въезде нам сказали, если что-то не получается, звоните)
В итоге позвонили два раза. Молодой человек помог, претензий нет, он так же был вежлив, но в первом случае не хватало проводов, во втором диск оказался поврежден, нам его заменили.
Позвонили в третий раз, когда не смогли настроить караоке в другой комнате. Девушка с ресепшна неприятным тоном спросила «Ну что у вас там ОПЯТЬ случилось». Я так подозреваю, что это та же девушка, с которой подписывали договор. Отношение так себе. Мы не шумим, правила соблюдаем, почему должны терпеть хамство — непонятно. Надеюсь, что руководство примет меры. Всё-таки это работа с людьми, элементарная вежливость — это не так уж сложно, согласитесь.

Ответ:
Здравствуйте. Спасибо за отзыв. Рады, что Вы выбрали для торжества именно наш отель. Приносим извинения за доставленные неудобства. Аппаратуру обязательно проверим, диски заменим, персонал обучим манерам, запахи устраним. Главное ничего не перепутать! Будем ждать в гости ещё, приезжайте!

Ольга

Здравствуйте!
11 марта были у вас в номере Зеркальный.
Номер меньше, чем обычный, стоит дороже, а «звёздочку» в карточку не ставят. Почему? Тот же отель, только отделение, так сказать, другое.
Теперь, собственно, по номеру. На потолок надо бы повесить простое зеркало, чтобы можно было видеться себя ещё и там.
Зеркала на тумбочках с вкраплениями смотрятся, как грязные. Лучше бы были простые.
На белье смотреть было некогда, а вот в жевачку, прилепленную кем-то из предыдущих постояльцев на ажурную спинку кровати «в голове», чуть не вляпалась. Потом были замечены 2 аналогичных шарика, прилепленных на спинку «в ногах». Это говорит о том, что номер убирается не очень-то и тщательно.
Сделали для себя вывод, что в Крези больше не пойдем. Переплачивать, простите, не за что.

Ответ:
Здравствуйте. Не обещаем перевесить зеркала, но приносим извинения за некачественную уборку номера, обязательно устраним все обнаруженные недоразумения и накажем всех виновных в сложившейся ситуации. Печать на карточке посещений Вам обязаны были поставить, поэтому мы были бы Вам очень признательны, если бы Вы написали нам на почту booking@pogosti.ru интервал, в который проживали, а также фамилию, на которую оформляли номер. Мы хотели бы реабилитироваться и исправить Ваше впечатление от Crazy отеля.

Саша

Добрый день!
Были несколько недель назад в номере «Дискотека — Амстердам». Сразу после входа обратили внимание, что левая дальняя ножка дивана, который стоит около барной стойки, подозрительно наклонена. Потом она сломалась в самый неподходящий момент.
Подозреваю, что она уже была сломана до нас.
Подскажите, ножку починили или может быть заменили диван? Такой диван в Hoff стоит 6-10 тыс. рублей.

Ответ:
Здравствуйте. Диван был сразу же починен, всё в порядке! Ждёт в гости

Эдуард

Спасибо за чудесные дизайнерские идеи номеров Крейзи отеля! Некоторые ваши решения уже воплощены при ремонте наших собственных квартир))) Но.. просьба отремонтировать тропический душ в номере Бангкок, он давно не работает как положено.

Ответ:
Здравствуйте. Пожалуй, воплощение наших идей в ремонте собственных квартир — это лучший комплимент Уточните, пожалуйста, на почту booking@pogosti.ru, что именно неисправно в тропическом душе. Пока неполадки в результате осмотра не обнаружены. Спасибо, что приезжаете к нам! Всегда рады видеть в гостях

Алексей

Хорошая гостиница с интересным номерным фондом. Отличный персонал. Минус только один, нет халатов. Интересно -это как-то решается?)

Ответ:
Это решается очень просто — надо обратиться к дежурному администратору и взять халат напрокат Спасибо за хороший отзыв, рады, что Вам понравилось.

Марина

Посетили отель с супругом уже 2 раза. Всё супер! Идея очень хорошая. Но в этот раз оказалось, что в номере Лас-Вегас совершенно нет никакой шторы на окне, а на фото сайта она есть… Из окон соседнего дома просто шикарный обзор Так как заезжали уже поздно,не стали решать вопрос, а сейчас 6-й час утра и я понимаю,что зря. Это несколько испортило наши впечатления от отдыха.
В прошлый раз были в номере Бангкок, очень понравился, вообще дизайн номеров очень интересный и необычный. Будем приезжать ещё,надеюсь, без «сюрпризов» обойдётся

Ответ:
Здравствуйте. Приносим свои извинения, что администратор при бронировании заранее не предупредил Вас о временном отсутствии штор в связи с плановой подготовкой к летнему сезону. Они уже возвращены на своё законное место — проверено! Спасибо, что цените нас. Всегда рады видеть в гостях!

Глаголев Юрий Юрьевич

В целом, очень хороший отель. Побывали и в обычном на алтуфьевском шоссе и в Crazy отеле. Приятно встречают, удобная бронь, в целом всё на уровне. Огорчило, что не всё, что указано на фото номера Инквизиция Мадрид, имелось в наличии. Так же обидно, что горничные не совсем добросовестные. При выезде из номера забыл на тумбочке кулон. Естественно его не нашли…

Ответ:
Здравствуйте. Спасибо за Ваш отзыв. Напишите, пожалуйста, на почту booking@pogosti.ru в каких числах Вы останавливались у нас и на какую фамилию бронировали номер — непременно будем разбираться. Обычно забытые вещи мы сохраняем и стараемся вернуть владельцу. Возможно, произошла какая-то ошибка. Мы обязательно сообщим Вам любой итог поисков. Приносим свои извинения за сложившуюся ситуацию. Будем рады увидеть в гостях снова!

Семен

добрый день. был пару раз в крейзи -отеле. первый раз, не слишком приветливая (из разговоров по телефону) девушка не выдала мне карту для накопления посещений. второй раз, более вежливый администратор, карту выдал и подробно рассказал о правилах.
Вопрос. Можете ли вы зачитать первое посещение в карту? факт посещения может быть подтвержден смс -оплатой

И, пожелание к специалистам по подготовке номера. Не надо класть одноразовые тапочки на полку для головных уборов. Их там никто не будет искать

Ответ:
Добрый день. Пришлите, пожалуйста, на почту booking@pogosti.ru дату, когда Вы у нас были первый раз и фамилию, на который бронировали номер. Разберемся и печать, конечно, поставим. Приносим свои извинения. А про тапочки замечание учтем

This article is about the Inquisition within the Catholic Church. For other uses, see Inquisition (disambiguation).

The Inquisition was a group of institutions within the Catholic Church whose aim was to combat heresy, conducting trials of suspected heretics. Studies of the records have found that the overwhelming majority of sentences consisted of penances, but convictions of unrepentant heresy were handed over to the secular courts, which generally resulted in execution or life imprisonment.^[1][2][3] The Inquisition had its start in the 12th-century Kingdom of France, with the aim of combating religious deviation (e.g. apostasy or heresy), particularly among the Cathars and the Waldensians. The inquisitorial courts from this time until the mid-15th century are together known as the Medieval Inquisition. Other groups investigated during the Medieval Inquisition, which primarily took place in France and Italy, include the Spiritual Franciscans, the Hussites, and the Beguines. Beginning in the 1250s, inquisitors were generally chosen from members of the Dominican Order, replacing the earlier practice of using local clergy as judges.^[4]

During the Late Middle Ages and the early Renaissance, the scope of the Inquisition grew significantly in response to the Protestant Reformation and the Catholic Counter-Reformation. During this period, the Inquisition conducted by the Holy See was known as the Roman Inquisition. The Inquisition also expanded to other European countries,^[5] resulting in the Spanish Inquisition and the Portuguese Inquisition. The Spanish and Portuguese Inquisitions focused particularly on the anusim (people who were forced to abandon Judaism against their will) and on Muslim converts to Catholicism. The scale of the persecution of converted Muslims and converted Jews in Spain and Portugal was the result of suspicions that they had secretly reverted to their previous religions, although both religious minority groups were also more numerous on the Iberian Peninsula than in other parts of Europe.

During this time, Spain and Portugal operated inquisitorial courts not only in Europe, but also throughout their empires in Africa, Asia, and the Americas. This resulted in the Goa Inquisition, the Peruvian Inquisition, and the Mexican Inquisition, among others.^[6]

With the exception of the Papal States, the institution of the Inquisition was abolished in the early 19th century, after the Napoleonic Wars in Europe and the Spanish American wars of independence in the Americas. The institution survived as part of the Roman Curia, but in 1908 it was renamed the Supreme Sacred Congregation of the Holy Office. In 1965, it became the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.^[7]

Definition and purpose[edit]

The term «Inquisition» comes from the Medieval Latin word inquisitio, which described any court process based on Roman law, which had gradually come back into use during the Late Middle Ages.^[8] Today, the English term «Inquisition» can apply to any one of several institutions that worked against heretics (or other offenders against canon law) within the judicial system of the Roman Catholic Church. Although the term «Inquisition» is usually applied to ecclesiastical courts of the Catholic Church, it refers to a judicial process, not an organization. Inquisitors ‘…were called such because they applied a judicial technique known as inquisitio, which could be translated as «inquiry» or «inquest».’ In this process, which was already widely used by secular rulers (Henry II used it extensively in England in the twelfth century), an official inquirer called for information on a specific subject from anyone who felt he or she had something to offer.»^[9]

The Inquisition, as a church-court, had no jurisdiction over Muslims and Jews as such.^[10] Generally, the Inquisition was concerned only with the heretical behaviour of Catholic adherents or converts.^[11]

The overwhelming majority of sentences seem to have consisted of penances like wearing a cross sewn on one’s clothes or going on pilgrimage.^[1] When a suspect was convicted of unrepentant heresy, canon law required the inquisitorial tribunal to hand the person over to secular authorities for final sentencing. A secular magistrate, the «secular arm», would then determine the penalty based on local law.^[12][13] Those local laws included proscriptions against certain religious crimes, and the punishments included death by burning, although the penalty was more usually banishment or imprisonment for life, which was generally commuted after a few years. Thus the inquisitors generally knew the fate which expected anyone so remanded.^[14]

The 1578 edition of the Directorium Inquisitorum (a standard Inquisitorial manual) spelled out the purpose of inquisitorial penalties: … quoniam punitio non refertur primo & per se in correctionem & bonum eius qui punitur, sed in bonum publicum ut alij terreantur, & a malis committendis avocentur (translation: «… for punishment does not take place primarily and per se for the correction and good of the person punished, but for the public good in order that others may become terrified and weaned away from the evils they would commit»).^[15]

Origin[edit]

Before 1100, the Catholic Church suppressed what they believed to be heresy, usually through a system of ecclesiastical proscription or imprisonment, but without using torture,^[5] and seldom resorting to executions.^[16][17] Such punishments were opposed by a number of clergymen and theologians, although some countries punished heresy with the death penalty.^[18][19] Pope Siricius, Ambrose of Milan, and Martin of Tours protested against the execution of Priscillian, largely as an undue interference in ecclesiastical discipline by a civil tribunal. Though widely viewed as a heretic, Priscillian was executed as a sorcerer. Ambrose refused to give any recognition to Ithacius of Ossonuba, «not wishing to have anything to do with bishops who had sent heretics to their death».^[20]

In the 12th century, to counter the spread of Catharism, prosecution of heretics became more frequent. The Church charged councils composed of bishops and archbishops with establishing inquisitions (the Episcopal Inquisition). The first Inquisition was temporarily established in Languedoc (south of France) in 1184. The murder of Pope Innocent’s papal legate Pierre de Castelnau in 1208 sparked the Albigensian Crusade (1209–1229). The Inquisition was permanently established in 1229 (Council of Toulouse), run largely by the Dominicans^[21] in Rome and later at Carcassonne in Languedoc.

Medieval Inquisition[edit]

Historians use the term «Medieval Inquisition» to describe the various inquisitions that started around 1184, including the Episcopal Inquisition (1184–1230s) and later the Papal Inquisition (1230s). These inquisitions responded to large popular movements throughout Europe considered apostate or heretical to Christianity, in particular the Cathars in southern France and the Waldensians in both southern France and northern Italy. Other Inquisitions followed after these first inquisition movements. The legal basis for some inquisitorial activity came from Pope Innocent IV’s papal bull Ad extirpanda of 1252, which explicitly authorized (and defined the appropriate circumstances for) the use of torture by the Inquisition for eliciting confessions from heretics.^[22] However, Nicholas Eymerich, the inquisitor who wrote the «Directorium Inquisitorum», stated: ‘Quaestiones sunt fallaces et ineficaces’ («interrogations via torture are misleading and futile»). By 1256 inquisitors were given absolution if they used instruments of torture.^[23]

In the 13th century, Pope Gregory IX (reigned 1227–1241) assigned the duty of carrying out inquisitions to the Dominican Order and Franciscan Order. By the end of the Middle Ages, England and Castile were the only large western nations without a papal inquisition.
Most inquisitors were friars who taught theology and/or law in the universities. They used inquisitorial procedures, a common legal practice adapted from the earlier Ancient Roman court procedures.^[24] They judged heresy along with bishops and groups of «assessors» (clergy serving in a role that was roughly analogous to a jury or legal advisers), using the local authorities to establish a tribunal and to prosecute heretics. After 1200, a Grand Inquisitor headed each Inquisition. Grand Inquisitions persisted until the mid 19th century.^[25]

Early Modern European history[edit]

With the sharpening of debate and of conflict between the Protestant Reformation and the Catholic Counter-Reformation, Protestant societies came to see/use the Inquisition as a terrifying «Other»,^[26] while staunch Catholics regarded the Holy Office as a necessary bulwark against the spread of reprehensible heresies.

Witch-trials[edit]

While belief in witchcraft, and persecutions directed at or excused by it, were widespread in pre-Christian Europe, and reflected in Germanic law, the influence of the Church in the early medieval era resulted in the revocation of these laws in many places, bringing an end to traditional pagan witch hunts.^[27] Throughout the medieval era, mainstream Christian teaching had denied the existence of witches and witchcraft, condemning it as pagan superstition.^[28] However, Christian influence on popular beliefs in witches and maleficium (harm committed by magic) failed to entirely eradicate folk belief in witches.

The fierce denunciation and persecution of supposed sorceresses that characterized the cruel witchhunts of a later age were not generally found in the first thirteen hundred years of the Christian era.^[29] The medieval Church distinguished between «white» and «black» magic.^{[citation needed]} Local folk practice often mixed chants, incantations, and prayers to the appropriate patron saint to ward off storms, to protect cattle, or ensure a good harvest. Bonfires on Midsummer’s Eve were intended to deflect natural catastrophes or the influence of fairies, ghosts, and witches. Plants, often harvested under particular conditions, were deemed effective in healing.^[30]

Black magic was that which was used for a malevolent purpose. This was generally dealt with through confession, repentance, and charitable work assigned as penance.^[31] Early Irish canons treated sorcery as a crime to be visited with excommunication until adequate penance had been performed. In 1258, Pope Alexander IV ruled that inquisitors should limit their involvement to those cases in which there was some clear presumption of heretical belief.

The prosecution of witchcraft generally became more prominent in the late medieval and Renaissance era, perhaps driven partly by the upheavals of the era – the Black Death, the Hundred Years War, and a gradual cooling of the climate that modern scientists call the Little Ice Age (between about the 15th and 19th centuries). Witches were sometimes blamed.^[32][33] Since the years of most intense witch-hunting largely coincide with the age of the Reformation, some historians point to the influence of the Reformation on the European witch-hunt.^[34]

Dominican priest Heinrich Kramer was assistant to the Archbishop of Salzburg. In 1484 Kramer requested that Pope Innocent VIII clarify his authority to prosecute witchcraft in Germany, where he had been refused assistance by the local ecclesiastical authorities. They maintained that Kramer could not legally function in their areas.^[35]

The papal bull Summis desiderantes affectibus sought to remedy this jurisdictional dispute by specifically identifying the dioceses of Mainz, Köln, Trier, Salzburg, and Bremen.^[36] Some scholars view the bull as «clearly political».^[37] The bull failed to ensure that Kramer obtained the support he had hoped for. In fact he was subsequently expelled from the city of Innsbruck by the local bishop, George Golzer, who ordered Kramer to stop making false accusations. Golzer described Kramer as senile in letters written shortly after the incident. This rebuke led Kramer to write a justification of his views on witchcraft in his 1486 book Malleus Maleficarum («Hammer against witches»). In the book, Kramer stated his view that witchcraft was to blame for bad weather. The book is also noted for its animus against women.^[29] Despite Kramer’s claim that the book gained acceptance from the clergy at the University of Cologne, it was in fact condemned by the clergy at Cologne for advocating views that violated Catholic doctrine and standard inquisitorial procedure. In 1538 the Spanish Inquisition cautioned its members not to believe everything the Malleus said.^[38]

Spanish Inquisition[edit]

Portugal and Spain in the late Middle Ages consisted largely of multicultural territories of Muslim and Jewish influence, reconquered from Islamic control, and the new Christian authorities could not assume that all their subjects would suddenly become and remain orthodox Roman Catholics. So the Inquisition in Iberia, in the lands of the Reconquista counties and kingdoms like León, Castile, and Aragon, had a special socio-political basis as well as more fundamental religious motives.^[40]

In some parts of Spain towards the end of the 14th century, there was a wave of violent anti-Judaism, encouraged by the preaching of Ferrand Martínez, Archdeacon of Écija. In the pogroms of June 1391 in Seville, hundreds of Jews were killed, and the synagogue was completely destroyed. The number of people killed was also high in other cities, such as Córdoba, Valencia, and Barcelona.^[41]

One of the consequences of these pogroms was the mass conversion of thousands of surviving Jews. Forced baptism was contrary to the law of the Catholic Church, and theoretically anybody who had been forcibly baptized could legally return to Judaism. However, this was very narrowly interpreted. Legal definitions of the time theoretically acknowledged that a forced baptism was not a valid sacrament, but confined this to cases where it was literally administered by physical force. A person who had consented to baptism under threat of death or serious injury was still regarded as a voluntary convert, and accordingly forbidden to revert to Judaism.^[42] After the public violence, many of the converted «felt it safer to remain in their new religion».^[43] Thus, after 1391, a new social group appeared and were referred to as conversos or New Christians.

King Ferdinand II of Aragon and Queen Isabella I of Castile established the Spanish Inquisition in 1478. In contrast to the previous inquisitions, it operated completely under royal Christian authority, though staffed by clergy and orders, and independently of the Holy See. It operated in Spain and in most^[44] Spanish colonies and territories, which included the Canary Islands, the Kingdom of Sicily,^[45] and all Spanish possessions in North, Central, and South America. It primarily focused upon forced converts from Islam (Moriscos, Conversos and secret Moors) and from Judaism (Conversos, Crypto-Jews and Marranos)—both groups still resided in Spain after the end of the Islamic control of Spain—who came under suspicion of either continuing to adhere to their old religion or of having fallen back into it.

In 1492 all Jews who had not converted were expelled from Spain; those who converted became nominal Catholics and thus subject to the Inquisition.

Inquisition in the Spanish overseas empire[edit]

In the Americas, King Philip II of Spain set up three tribunals (each formally titled Tribunal del Santo Oficio de la Inquisición) in 1569, one in Mexico, Cartagena de Indias (in modern-day Colombia) and Peru. The Mexican office administered Mexico (central and southeastern Mexico), Nueva Galicia (northern and western Mexico), the Audiencias of Guatemala (Guatemala, Chiapas, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica), and the Spanish East Indies. The Peruvian Inquisition, based in Lima, administered all the Spanish territories in South America and Panama.^{[citation needed]}

Portuguese Inquisition[edit]

The Portuguese Inquisition formally started in Portugal in 1536 at the request of King João III. Manuel I had asked Pope Leo X for the installation of the Inquisition in 1515, but only after his death in 1521 did Pope Paul III acquiesce. At its head stood a Grande Inquisidor, or General Inquisitor, named by the Pope but selected by the Crown, and always from within the royal family.^{[citation needed]} The Portuguese Inquisition principally focused upon the Sephardi Jews, whom the state forced to convert to Christianity. Spain had expelled its Sephardi population in 1492; many of these Spanish Jews left Spain for Portugal but eventually were subject to inquisition there as well.

The Portuguese Inquisition held its first auto-da-fé in 1540. The Portuguese inquisitors mostly focused upon the Jewish New Christians (i.e. conversos or marranos). The Portuguese Inquisition expanded its scope of operations from Portugal to its colonial possessions, including Brazil, Cape Verde, and Goa. In the colonies, it continued as a religious court, investigating and trying cases of breaches of the tenets of orthodox Roman Catholicism until 1821. King João III (reigned 1521–57) extended the activity of the courts to cover censorship, divination, witchcraft, and bigamy. Originally oriented for a religious action, the Inquisition exerted an influence over almost every aspect of Portuguese society: political, cultural, and social.

According to Henry Charles Lea, between 1540 and 1794, tribunals in Lisbon, Porto, Coimbra, and Évora resulted in the burning of 1,175 persons, the burning of another 633 in effigy, and the penancing of 29,590.^[46] But documentation of 15 out of 689 autos-da-fé has disappeared, so these numbers may slightly understate the activity.^[47]

Inquisition in the Portuguese overseas empire[edit]

Goa Inquisition[edit]

The Goa Inquisition began in 1560 at the order of John III of Portugal. It had originally been requested in a letter in the 1540s by Jesuit priest Francis Xavier, because of the New Christians who had arrived in Goa and then reverted to Judaism. The Goa Inquisition also focused upon Catholic converts from Hinduism or Islam who were thought to have returned to their original ways. In addition, this inquisition prosecuted non-converts who broke prohibitions against the public observance of Hindu or Muslim rites or interfered with Portuguese attempts to convert non-Christians to Catholicism.^[48] Aleixo Dias Falcão and Francisco Marques set it up in the palace of the Sabaio Adil Khan.

Brazilian Inquisition[edit]

The inquisition was active in colonial Brazil. The religious mystic and formerly enslaved prostitute, Rosa Egipcíaca was arrested, interrogated and imprisoned, both in the colony and in Lisbon. Egipcíaca was the first black woman in Brazil to write a book — this work detailed her visions and was entitled Sagrada Teologia do Amor Divino das Almas Peregrinas.^[49]

Roman Inquisition[edit]

With the Protestant Reformation, Catholic authorities became much more ready to suspect heresy in any new ideas,^[50]
including those of Renaissance humanism,^[51] previously strongly supported by many at the top of the Church hierarchy. The extirpation of heretics became a much broader and more complex enterprise, complicated by the politics of territorial Protestant powers, especially in northern Europe. The Catholic Church could no longer exercise direct influence in the politics and justice-systems of lands that officially adopted Protestantism. Thus war (the French Wars of Religion, the Thirty Years’ War), massacre (the St. Bartholomew’s Day massacre) and the missional^[52] and propaganda work (by the Sacra congregatio de propaganda fide)^[53] of the Counter-Reformation came to play larger roles in these circumstances, and the Roman law type of a «judicial» approach to heresy represented by the Inquisition became less important overall. In 1542 Pope Paul III established the Congregation of the Holy Office of the Inquisition as a permanent congregation staffed with cardinals and other officials. It had the tasks of maintaining and defending the integrity of the faith and of examining and proscribing errors and false doctrines; it thus became the supervisory body of local Inquisitions.^[54] A famous case tried by the Roman Inquisition was that of Galileo Galilei in 1633.

The penances and sentences for those who confessed or were found guilty were pronounced together in a public ceremony at the end of all the processes. This was the sermo generalis or auto-da-fé.^[55] Penances (not matters for the civil authorities) might consist of a pilgrimage, a public scourging, a fine, or the wearing of a cross. The wearing of two tongues of red or other brightly colored cloth, sewn onto an outer garment in an «X» pattern, marked those who were under investigation. The penalties in serious cases were confiscation of property by the Inquisition or imprisonment. This led to the possibility of false charges to enable confiscation being made against those over a certain income, particularly rich marranos. Following the French invasion of 1798, the new authorities sent 3,000 chests containing over 100,000 Inquisition documents to France from Rome.

Ending of the Inquisition in the 19th and 20th centuries[edit]

By decree of Napoleon’s government in 1797, the Inquisition in Venice was abolished in 1806.^[56]

In Portugal, in the wake of the Liberal Revolution of 1820, the «General Extraordinary and Constituent Courts of the Portuguese Nation» abolished the Portuguese inquisition in 1821.

The wars of independence of the former Spanish colonies in the Americas concluded with the abolition of the Inquisition in every quarter of Hispanic America between 1813 and 1825.

The last execution of the Inquisition was in Spain in 1826.^[57] This was the execution by garroting of the Catalan school teacher Gaietà Ripoll for purportedly teaching Deism in his school.^[57] In Spain the practices of the Inquisition were finally outlawed in 1834.^[58]

In Italy, the restoration of the Pope as the ruler of the Papal States in 1814 brought back the Inquisition to the Papal States. It remained active there until the late-19th century, notably in the well-publicised Mortara affair (1858–1870). In 1908 the name of the Congregation became «The Sacred Congregation of the Holy Office», which in 1965 further changed to «Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith», as retained to the present day.

Statistics[edit]

Beginning in the 19th century, historians have gradually compiled statistics drawn from the surviving court records, from which estimates have been calculated by adjusting the recorded number of convictions by the average rate of document loss for each time period. Gustav Henningsen and Jaime Contreras studied the records of the Spanish Inquisition, which list 44,674 cases of which 826 resulted in executions in person and 778 in effigy (i.e. a straw dummy was burned in place of the person).^[59] William Monter estimated there were 1000 executions between 1530–1630 and 250 between 1630 and 1730.^[60] Jean-Pierre Dedieu studied the records of Toledo’s tribunal, which put 12,000 people on trial.^[61] For the period prior to 1530, Henry Kamen estimated there were about 2,000 executions in all of Spain’s tribunals.^[62] Italian Renaissance history professor and Inquisition expert Carlo Ginzburg had his doubts about using statistics to reach a judgment about the period. «In many cases, we don’t have the evidence, the evidence has been lost,» said Ginzburg.^[63]

Appearance in popular media[edit]

• In the Monty Python comedy team’s Spanish Inquisition sketches, an inept Inquisitor group repeatedly bursts into scenes after someone utters the words «I didn’t expect a kind of Spanish Inquisition», screaming «Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!» The Inquisition then uses ineffectual forms of torture, including a dish-drying rack, soft cushions and a comfy chair.
• The 1982 novel Baltasar and Blimunda by José Saramago, portrays how the Portuguese Inquisition impacts the fortunes of the title characters as well as several others from history, including the priest and aviation pioneer Bartolomeu de Gusmão.
• The 1981 comedy film History of the World, Part I, produced and directed by Mel Brooks, features a musical segment on the Spanish Inquisition.
• Inquisitio is a French television series set in the Middle Ages.
• In the novel Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco, there is some discussion about various sects of Christianity and inquisition, a small discussion about the ethics and purpose of inquisition, and a scene of Inquisition.

This article is about the Inquisition within the Catholic Church. For other uses, see Inquisition (disambiguation).

The Inquisition was a group of institutions within the Catholic Church whose aim was to combat heresy, conducting trials of suspected heretics. Studies of the records have found that the overwhelming majority of sentences consisted of penances, but convictions of unrepentant heresy were handed over to the secular courts, which generally resulted in execution or life imprisonment.^[1][2][3] The Inquisition had its start in the 12th-century Kingdom of France, with the aim of combating religious deviation (e.g. apostasy or heresy), particularly among the Cathars and the Waldensians. The inquisitorial courts from this time until the mid-15th century are together known as the Medieval Inquisition. Other groups investigated during the Medieval Inquisition, which primarily took place in France and Italy, include the Spiritual Franciscans, the Hussites, and the Beguines. Beginning in the 1250s, inquisitors were generally chosen from members of the Dominican Order, replacing the earlier practice of using local clergy as judges.^[4]

During the Late Middle Ages and the early Renaissance, the scope of the Inquisition grew significantly in response to the Protestant Reformation and the Catholic Counter-Reformation. During this period, the Inquisition conducted by the Holy See was known as the Roman Inquisition. The Inquisition also expanded to other European countries,^[5] resulting in the Spanish Inquisition and the Portuguese Inquisition. The Spanish and Portuguese Inquisitions focused particularly on the anusim (people who were forced to abandon Judaism against their will) and on Muslim converts to Catholicism. The scale of the persecution of converted Muslims and converted Jews in Spain and Portugal was the result of suspicions that they had secretly reverted to their previous religions, although both religious minority groups were also more numerous on the Iberian Peninsula than in other parts of Europe.

During this time, Spain and Portugal operated inquisitorial courts not only in Europe, but also throughout their empires in Africa, Asia, and the Americas. This resulted in the Goa Inquisition, the Peruvian Inquisition, and the Mexican Inquisition, among others.^[6]

With the exception of the Papal States, the institution of the Inquisition was abolished in the early 19th century, after the Napoleonic Wars in Europe and the Spanish American wars of independence in the Americas. The institution survived as part of the Roman Curia, but in 1908 it was renamed the Supreme Sacred Congregation of the Holy Office. In 1965, it became the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.^[7]

Definition and purpose[edit]

The term «Inquisition» comes from the Medieval Latin word inquisitio, which described any court process based on Roman law, which had gradually come back into use during the Late Middle Ages.^[8] Today, the English term «Inquisition» can apply to any one of several institutions that worked against heretics (or other offenders against canon law) within the judicial system of the Roman Catholic Church. Although the term «Inquisition» is usually applied to ecclesiastical courts of the Catholic Church, it refers to a judicial process, not an organization. Inquisitors ‘…were called such because they applied a judicial technique known as inquisitio, which could be translated as «inquiry» or «inquest».’ In this process, which was already widely used by secular rulers (Henry II used it extensively in England in the twelfth century), an official inquirer called for information on a specific subject from anyone who felt he or she had something to offer.»^[9]

The Inquisition, as a church-court, had no jurisdiction over Muslims and Jews as such.^[10] Generally, the Inquisition was concerned only with the heretical behaviour of Catholic adherents or converts.^[11]

The overwhelming majority of sentences seem to have consisted of penances like wearing a cross sewn on one’s clothes or going on pilgrimage.^[1] When a suspect was convicted of unrepentant heresy, canon law required the inquisitorial tribunal to hand the person over to secular authorities for final sentencing. A secular magistrate, the «secular arm», would then determine the penalty based on local law.^[12][13] Those local laws included proscriptions against certain religious crimes, and the punishments included death by burning, although the penalty was more usually banishment or imprisonment for life, which was generally commuted after a few years. Thus the inquisitors generally knew the fate which expected anyone so remanded.^[14]

The 1578 edition of the Directorium Inquisitorum (a standard Inquisitorial manual) spelled out the purpose of inquisitorial penalties: … quoniam punitio non refertur primo & per se in correctionem & bonum eius qui punitur, sed in bonum publicum ut alij terreantur, & a malis committendis avocentur (translation: «… for punishment does not take place primarily and per se for the correction and good of the person punished, but for the public good in order that others may become terrified and weaned away from the evils they would commit»).^[15]

Origin[edit]

Before 1100, the Catholic Church suppressed what they believed to be heresy, usually through a system of ecclesiastical proscription or imprisonment, but without using torture,^[5] and seldom resorting to executions.^[16][17] Such punishments were opposed by a number of clergymen and theologians, although some countries punished heresy with the death penalty.^[18][19] Pope Siricius, Ambrose of Milan, and Martin of Tours protested against the execution of Priscillian, largely as an undue interference in ecclesiastical discipline by a civil tribunal. Though widely viewed as a heretic, Priscillian was executed as a sorcerer. Ambrose refused to give any recognition to Ithacius of Ossonuba, «not wishing to have anything to do with bishops who had sent heretics to their death».^[20]

In the 12th century, to counter the spread of Catharism, prosecution of heretics became more frequent. The Church charged councils composed of bishops and archbishops with establishing inquisitions (the Episcopal Inquisition). The first Inquisition was temporarily established in Languedoc (south of France) in 1184. The murder of Pope Innocent’s papal legate Pierre de Castelnau in 1208 sparked the Albigensian Crusade (1209–1229). The Inquisition was permanently established in 1229 (Council of Toulouse), run largely by the Dominicans^[21] in Rome and later at Carcassonne in Languedoc.

Medieval Inquisition[edit]

Historians use the term «Medieval Inquisition» to describe the various inquisitions that started around 1184, including the Episcopal Inquisition (1184–1230s) and later the Papal Inquisition (1230s). These inquisitions responded to large popular movements throughout Europe considered apostate or heretical to Christianity, in particular the Cathars in southern France and the Waldensians in both southern France and northern Italy. Other Inquisitions followed after these first inquisition movements. The legal basis for some inquisitorial activity came from Pope Innocent IV’s papal bull Ad extirpanda of 1252, which explicitly authorized (and defined the appropriate circumstances for) the use of torture by the Inquisition for eliciting confessions from heretics.^[22] However, Nicholas Eymerich, the inquisitor who wrote the «Directorium Inquisitorum», stated: ‘Quaestiones sunt fallaces et ineficaces’ («interrogations via torture are misleading and futile»). By 1256 inquisitors were given absolution if they used instruments of torture.^[23]

In the 13th century, Pope Gregory IX (reigned 1227–1241) assigned the duty of carrying out inquisitions to the Dominican Order and Franciscan Order. By the end of the Middle Ages, England and Castile were the only large western nations without a papal inquisition.
Most inquisitors were friars who taught theology and/or law in the universities. They used inquisitorial procedures, a common legal practice adapted from the earlier Ancient Roman court procedures.^[24] They judged heresy along with bishops and groups of «assessors» (clergy serving in a role that was roughly analogous to a jury or legal advisers), using the local authorities to establish a tribunal and to prosecute heretics. After 1200, a Grand Inquisitor headed each Inquisition. Grand Inquisitions persisted until the mid 19th century.^[25]

Early Modern European history[edit]

With the sharpening of debate and of conflict between the Protestant Reformation and the Catholic Counter-Reformation, Protestant societies came to see/use the Inquisition as a terrifying «Other»,^[26] while staunch Catholics regarded the Holy Office as a necessary bulwark against the spread of reprehensible heresies.

Witch-trials[edit]

While belief in witchcraft, and persecutions directed at or excused by it, were widespread in pre-Christian Europe, and reflected in Germanic law, the influence of the Church in the early medieval era resulted in the revocation of these laws in many places, bringing an end to traditional pagan witch hunts.^[27] Throughout the medieval era, mainstream Christian teaching had denied the existence of witches and witchcraft, condemning it as pagan superstition.^[28] However, Christian influence on popular beliefs in witches and maleficium (harm committed by magic) failed to entirely eradicate folk belief in witches.

The fierce denunciation and persecution of supposed sorceresses that characterized the cruel witchhunts of a later age were not generally found in the first thirteen hundred years of the Christian era.^[29] The medieval Church distinguished between «white» and «black» magic.^{[citation needed]} Local folk practice often mixed chants, incantations, and prayers to the appropriate patron saint to ward off storms, to protect cattle, or ensure a good harvest. Bonfires on Midsummer’s Eve were intended to deflect natural catastrophes or the influence of fairies, ghosts, and witches. Plants, often harvested under particular conditions, were deemed effective in healing.^[30]

Black magic was that which was used for a malevolent purpose. This was generally dealt with through confession, repentance, and charitable work assigned as penance.^[31] Early Irish canons treated sorcery as a crime to be visited with excommunication until adequate penance had been performed. In 1258, Pope Alexander IV ruled that inquisitors should limit their involvement to those cases in which there was some clear presumption of heretical belief.

The prosecution of witchcraft generally became more prominent in the late medieval and Renaissance era, perhaps driven partly by the upheavals of the era – the Black Death, the Hundred Years War, and a gradual cooling of the climate that modern scientists call the Little Ice Age (between about the 15th and 19th centuries). Witches were sometimes blamed.^[32][33] Since the years of most intense witch-hunting largely coincide with the age of the Reformation, some historians point to the influence of the Reformation on the European witch-hunt.^[34]

Dominican priest Heinrich Kramer was assistant to the Archbishop of Salzburg. In 1484 Kramer requested that Pope Innocent VIII clarify his authority to prosecute witchcraft in Germany, where he had been refused assistance by the local ecclesiastical authorities. They maintained that Kramer could not legally function in their areas.^[35]

The papal bull Summis desiderantes affectibus sought to remedy this jurisdictional dispute by specifically identifying the dioceses of Mainz, Köln, Trier, Salzburg, and Bremen.^[36] Some scholars view the bull as «clearly political».^[37] The bull failed to ensure that Kramer obtained the support he had hoped for. In fact he was subsequently expelled from the city of Innsbruck by the local bishop, George Golzer, who ordered Kramer to stop making false accusations. Golzer described Kramer as senile in letters written shortly after the incident. This rebuke led Kramer to write a justification of his views on witchcraft in his 1486 book Malleus Maleficarum («Hammer against witches»). In the book, Kramer stated his view that witchcraft was to blame for bad weather. The book is also noted for its animus against women.^[29] Despite Kramer’s claim that the book gained acceptance from the clergy at the University of Cologne, it was in fact condemned by the clergy at Cologne for advocating views that violated Catholic doctrine and standard inquisitorial procedure. In 1538 the Spanish Inquisition cautioned its members not to believe everything the Malleus said.^[38]

Spanish Inquisition[edit]

Portugal and Spain in the late Middle Ages consisted largely of multicultural territories of Muslim and Jewish influence, reconquered from Islamic control, and the new Christian authorities could not assume that all their subjects would suddenly become and remain orthodox Roman Catholics. So the Inquisition in Iberia, in the lands of the Reconquista counties and kingdoms like León, Castile, and Aragon, had a special socio-political basis as well as more fundamental religious motives.^[40]

In some parts of Spain towards the end of the 14th century, there was a wave of violent anti-Judaism, encouraged by the preaching of Ferrand Martínez, Archdeacon of Écija. In the pogroms of June 1391 in Seville, hundreds of Jews were killed, and the synagogue was completely destroyed. The number of people killed was also high in other cities, such as Córdoba, Valencia, and Barcelona.^[41]

One of the consequences of these pogroms was the mass conversion of thousands of surviving Jews. Forced baptism was contrary to the law of the Catholic Church, and theoretically anybody who had been forcibly baptized could legally return to Judaism. However, this was very narrowly interpreted. Legal definitions of the time theoretically acknowledged that a forced baptism was not a valid sacrament, but confined this to cases where it was literally administered by physical force. A person who had consented to baptism under threat of death or serious injury was still regarded as a voluntary convert, and accordingly forbidden to revert to Judaism.^[42] After the public violence, many of the converted «felt it safer to remain in their new religion».^[43] Thus, after 1391, a new social group appeared and were referred to as conversos or New Christians.

King Ferdinand II of Aragon and Queen Isabella I of Castile established the Spanish Inquisition in 1478. In contrast to the previous inquisitions, it operated completely under royal Christian authority, though staffed by clergy and orders, and independently of the Holy See. It operated in Spain and in most^[44] Spanish colonies and territories, which included the Canary Islands, the Kingdom of Sicily,^[45] and all Spanish possessions in North, Central, and South America. It primarily focused upon forced converts from Islam (Moriscos, Conversos and secret Moors) and from Judaism (Conversos, Crypto-Jews and Marranos)—both groups still resided in Spain after the end of the Islamic control of Spain—who came under suspicion of either continuing to adhere to their old religion or of having fallen back into it.

In 1492 all Jews who had not converted were expelled from Spain; those who converted became nominal Catholics and thus subject to the Inquisition.

Inquisition in the Spanish overseas empire[edit]

In the Americas, King Philip II of Spain set up three tribunals (each formally titled Tribunal del Santo Oficio de la Inquisición) in 1569, one in Mexico, Cartagena de Indias (in modern-day Colombia) and Peru. The Mexican office administered Mexico (central and southeastern Mexico), Nueva Galicia (northern and western Mexico), the Audiencias of Guatemala (Guatemala, Chiapas, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica), and the Spanish East Indies. The Peruvian Inquisition, based in Lima, administered all the Spanish territories in South America and Panama.^{[citation needed]}

Portuguese Inquisition[edit]

The Portuguese Inquisition formally started in Portugal in 1536 at the request of King João III. Manuel I had asked Pope Leo X for the installation of the Inquisition in 1515, but only after his death in 1521 did Pope Paul III acquiesce. At its head stood a Grande Inquisidor, or General Inquisitor, named by the Pope but selected by the Crown, and always from within the royal family.^{[citation needed]} The Portuguese Inquisition principally focused upon the Sephardi Jews, whom the state forced to convert to Christianity. Spain had expelled its Sephardi population in 1492; many of these Spanish Jews left Spain for Portugal but eventually were subject to inquisition there as well.

The Portuguese Inquisition held its first auto-da-fé in 1540. The Portuguese inquisitors mostly focused upon the Jewish New Christians (i.e. conversos or marranos). The Portuguese Inquisition expanded its scope of operations from Portugal to its colonial possessions, including Brazil, Cape Verde, and Goa. In the colonies, it continued as a religious court, investigating and trying cases of breaches of the tenets of orthodox Roman Catholicism until 1821. King João III (reigned 1521–57) extended the activity of the courts to cover censorship, divination, witchcraft, and bigamy. Originally oriented for a religious action, the Inquisition exerted an influence over almost every aspect of Portuguese society: political, cultural, and social.

According to Henry Charles Lea, between 1540 and 1794, tribunals in Lisbon, Porto, Coimbra, and Évora resulted in the burning of 1,175 persons, the burning of another 633 in effigy, and the penancing of 29,590.^[46] But documentation of 15 out of 689 autos-da-fé has disappeared, so these numbers may slightly understate the activity.^[47]

Inquisition in the Portuguese overseas empire[edit]

Goa Inquisition[edit]

The Goa Inquisition began in 1560 at the order of John III of Portugal. It had originally been requested in a letter in the 1540s by Jesuit priest Francis Xavier, because of the New Christians who had arrived in Goa and then reverted to Judaism. The Goa Inquisition also focused upon Catholic converts from Hinduism or Islam who were thought to have returned to their original ways. In addition, this inquisition prosecuted non-converts who broke prohibitions against the public observance of Hindu or Muslim rites or interfered with Portuguese attempts to convert non-Christians to Catholicism.^[48] Aleixo Dias Falcão and Francisco Marques set it up in the palace of the Sabaio Adil Khan.

Brazilian Inquisition[edit]

The inquisition was active in colonial Brazil. The religious mystic and formerly enslaved prostitute, Rosa Egipcíaca was arrested, interrogated and imprisoned, both in the colony and in Lisbon. Egipcíaca was the first black woman in Brazil to write a book — this work detailed her visions and was entitled Sagrada Teologia do Amor Divino das Almas Peregrinas.^[49]

Roman Inquisition[edit]

With the Protestant Reformation, Catholic authorities became much more ready to suspect heresy in any new ideas,^[50]
including those of Renaissance humanism,^[51] previously strongly supported by many at the top of the Church hierarchy. The extirpation of heretics became a much broader and more complex enterprise, complicated by the politics of territorial Protestant powers, especially in northern Europe. The Catholic Church could no longer exercise direct influence in the politics and justice-systems of lands that officially adopted Protestantism. Thus war (the French Wars of Religion, the Thirty Years’ War), massacre (the St. Bartholomew’s Day massacre) and the missional^[52] and propaganda work (by the Sacra congregatio de propaganda fide)^[53] of the Counter-Reformation came to play larger roles in these circumstances, and the Roman law type of a «judicial» approach to heresy represented by the Inquisition became less important overall. In 1542 Pope Paul III established the Congregation of the Holy Office of the Inquisition as a permanent congregation staffed with cardinals and other officials. It had the tasks of maintaining and defending the integrity of the faith and of examining and proscribing errors and false doctrines; it thus became the supervisory body of local Inquisitions.^[54] A famous case tried by the Roman Inquisition was that of Galileo Galilei in 1633.

The penances and sentences for those who confessed or were found guilty were pronounced together in a public ceremony at the end of all the processes. This was the sermo generalis or auto-da-fé.^[55] Penances (not matters for the civil authorities) might consist of a pilgrimage, a public scourging, a fine, or the wearing of a cross. The wearing of two tongues of red or other brightly colored cloth, sewn onto an outer garment in an «X» pattern, marked those who were under investigation. The penalties in serious cases were confiscation of property by the Inquisition or imprisonment. This led to the possibility of false charges to enable confiscation being made against those over a certain income, particularly rich marranos. Following the French invasion of 1798, the new authorities sent 3,000 chests containing over 100,000 Inquisition documents to France from Rome.

Ending of the Inquisition in the 19th and 20th centuries[edit]

By decree of Napoleon’s government in 1797, the Inquisition in Venice was abolished in 1806.^[56]

In Portugal, in the wake of the Liberal Revolution of 1820, the «General Extraordinary and Constituent Courts of the Portuguese Nation» abolished the Portuguese inquisition in 1821.

The wars of independence of the former Spanish colonies in the Americas concluded with the abolition of the Inquisition in every quarter of Hispanic America between 1813 and 1825.

The last execution of the Inquisition was in Spain in 1826.^[57] This was the execution by garroting of the Catalan school teacher Gaietà Ripoll for purportedly teaching Deism in his school.^[57] In Spain the practices of the Inquisition were finally outlawed in 1834.^[58]

In Italy, the restoration of the Pope as the ruler of the Papal States in 1814 brought back the Inquisition to the Papal States. It remained active there until the late-19th century, notably in the well-publicised Mortara affair (1858–1870). In 1908 the name of the Congregation became «The Sacred Congregation of the Holy Office», which in 1965 further changed to «Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith», as retained to the present day.

Statistics[edit]

Beginning in the 19th century, historians have gradually compiled statistics drawn from the surviving court records, from which estimates have been calculated by adjusting the recorded number of convictions by the average rate of document loss for each time period. Gustav Henningsen and Jaime Contreras studied the records of the Spanish Inquisition, which list 44,674 cases of which 826 resulted in executions in person and 778 in effigy (i.e. a straw dummy was burned in place of the person).^[59] William Monter estimated there were 1000 executions between 1530–1630 and 250 between 1630 and 1730.^[60] Jean-Pierre Dedieu studied the records of Toledo’s tribunal, which put 12,000 people on trial.^[61] For the period prior to 1530, Henry Kamen estimated there were about 2,000 executions in all of Spain’s tribunals.^[62] Italian Renaissance history professor and Inquisition expert Carlo Ginzburg had his doubts about using statistics to reach a judgment about the period. «In many cases, we don’t have the evidence, the evidence has been lost,» said Ginzburg.^[63]

Appearance in popular media[edit]

• In the Monty Python comedy team’s Spanish Inquisition sketches, an inept Inquisitor group repeatedly bursts into scenes after someone utters the words «I didn’t expect a kind of Spanish Inquisition», screaming «Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!» The Inquisition then uses ineffectual forms of torture, including a dish-drying rack, soft cushions and a comfy chair.
• The 1982 novel Baltasar and Blimunda by José Saramago, portrays how the Portuguese Inquisition impacts the fortunes of the title characters as well as several others from history, including the priest and aviation pioneer Bartolomeu de Gusmão.
• The 1981 comedy film History of the World, Part I, produced and directed by Mel Brooks, features a musical segment on the Spanish Inquisition.
• Inquisitio is a French television series set in the Middle Ages.
• In the novel Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco, there is some discussion about various sects of Christianity and inquisition, a small discussion about the ethics and purpose of inquisition, and a scene of Inquisition.

• In the novel La Catedral del Mar by Ildefonso Falcones, and Netflix series Cathedral of the Sea based on the novel, there are scenes of inquisition investigations in small towns and a great scene in Barcelona.
• Miloš Forman’s «Goya’s Ghosts», released June 9, 2007 in the US, brings to light the stories behind some of Spanish painter Francisco Goya’s paintings during the Spanish Inquisition, particularly one of a priest condemning and imprisoning a beautiful woman for his own profit. Her family retaliates, but cannot save her.
