Description
Summary:Trial documents of the Roman Inquisition can offer precious insights into female reactions when facing power. Such documents help various female figures of different cultural and social levels emerge from the shadow of indifference. Confronting an instutionalised structure, such as that of the Inquisition, puts the witnesses and the accused in an extreme situation and brings out contrasts of response and demale strategies in confrontation with the patriarchal mentality of the clergy.
