â Gretchen Starr-LeBeauâ s Seven Myths of the Spanish Inquisition provides an excellent introduction to Habsburg Spainâ s most reviled and misunderstood institution. Drawn from archival sources and modern scholarship, this concise study presents the long and tortured history of the Spanish Inquisition in an accessible format for readers interested in the intersection of religion and jurisprudence. Addressing common misconceptions about the procedures, effectiveness, and reach of the Inquisition, this work argues convincingly for an updated assessment encompassing change over time and variations across Spain and its empire. Students of the early modern period will benefit from the volumeâ s logical organization, glossary of terms, and suggestions for further reading.â â Benjamin Ehlers, University of Georgia |
