Magic in Malta
Author: Dionysius A. Agius
Publisher: Islamic History and Civilizati
ISBN: 9789004498938
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"In this volume, a microhistorical approach is employed to provide a transcription, translation, and case-study of the proceedings (written in Latin, Italian and Arabic) of the Roman Inquisition on Malta's 1605 trial of the 'Moorish' slave Sellem Bin al-Sheikh Mansur, who was accused and found guilty of practising magic and teaching it to the local Christians. Through both a detailed commentary and individual case-studies, it assesses what these proceedings reflect about religion, society, and politics both on Malta and more widely across the Mediterranean in the early 17th century. In so doing, this inter- and multi-disciplinary project speaks to a wide range of subjects, including magic, Christian-Muslim relations, slavery, Maltese social history, Mediterranean history, and the Roman Inquisition. It will be of interest to both students and researchers who study any of these subjects, and will help demonstrate the richness and potential of the documents in the Maltese archives"--

Captives, Colonists and Craftspeople
Author: Russell Palmer
Publisher: Berghahn Books
ISBN: 1789207797
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 285
Book Description
Over the course of four centuries, the island of Malta underwent several significant political transformations, including its roles as a Catholic bastion under the Knights of St. John between 1530 and 1798, and as a British maritime hub in the nineteenth century. This innovative study draws on both archival evidence and archeological findings to compare slavery and coerced labor, resource control, globalization, and other historical phenomena in Malta under the two regimes: one feudal, the other colonial. Spanning conventional divides between the early and late modern eras, Russell Palmer offers here a rich analysis of a Mediterranean island against a background of immense European and global change.

Two Death Sentences by the Inquisition Tribunal of Malta, 1639
Author: Kenneth Gambin
Publisher: Midsea Books
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
Besides fighting Protestant doctrines, the setting up of the Roman Inquisition in 1542 was also aimed at introducing a sense of correct behaviour and beliefs expected from all Christians. The Inquisition was lenient with first-time offenders or with those who showed genuine signs of repentance. In those rare cases where the accused insisted in their errors, however, the instructions were clear: the obstinate and stubborn unrepentant who refused to be reconciled to the Church had to be handed to the secular court to be burned alive. Book jacket.

Tolerance Re-Shaped in the Early-Modern Mediterranean Borderlands
Author: Filomena Viviana Tagliaferri
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317009991
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
This book explores perceptions of toleration and self-identity through an analysis of otherness’ real experience of Italian travellers, Catholic missionaries and Maltese proto-journalists within Mediterranean border-spaces. Employing a multidisciplinary approach, which integrates the analysis of original and unpublished archival documentation with early modern European travel literature, the book shows how fluid subjects and border groups adapted to new environments, often generating information that made the Ottomans and their system of values real and dignified to an Italian audience. The interdisciplinary combining of historical methodology with the tools of comparative literature, anthropology and folklore studies provides a fresh perspective on concepts of tolerance as experienced in the early modern Mediterranean.
