#Inquisition

Particularly proud of that one. It owes so much to @cesare_santus who really is the prime editor here. For me the volume has a personal taste, as my paper deals with how the Roman Inquisition handled the community of my Greek ancestors in Genoese Corsica.

So exciting to see the fourth publication in the Catholicisms series under the IMEMS Press! Click the link below to read more. 📚

I'm looking forward to the release of my friend Fr. Sam Conedera's new book, the first major work ever on the thought of Alfonso Salméron: one of the original Jesuits who helped found the Society of Jesus with St. Ignatius & who played an important role at the Council of Trent.

Sam Zeno Conedera tells us why he wrote about Alfonso Salmerón and what he learnt about early #Jesuits in this Q&A blog ➡️ buff.ly/EkI3Rl2

Today, the #IMEMSSpotlight is on Dr James Kelly, whose latest book, The Catholic Reformation: A Very Short Introduction, is out now with @OUPAcademic! Read more about James' research here: 📚 durham.ac.uk/staff/james-ke…
