Early modern history: c 1450/1500 to c 1700 |
| To this day, the Inquisition stands for the dark side of history: bloody executions, torture and public burns. In the struggle for true and right faith, the authority, which still exists today, stands for institutionalized ecclesiastical power. In the German-speaking Empire, unlike in neighboring European countries, no inquisition tribunal was established after the Reformation. But the German Protestants played a major role in the public debate about the Inquisition through the media processing in pamphlets and leaflets. The reason was obvious: the Protestants' concern about the encroachment of the imperial or papal authorities on the German territories. The formation of media stereotypes about the Inquisition, which are still circulating in the news today, therefore took place in a country where it did there was no inquisition. Reflected in the event-political context of denominational tensions in the course of the 16th and the beginning of the 17th centuries, the origin, use and development of these images is examined. |
