Galileo’s Three Repudiations of Copernicanism – Two Coerced and One Volunteered
Up to 1616, when the Copernican theory of heliocentrism was prohibited, Galileo had never asserted its truth. But the pope and cardinals of the Roman Inquisition assumed that he had, and he was required to repudiate it. In contrast, Copernicus’s book was only lightly corrected and allowed to be read. Galileo continued his practice of not asserting the reality of heliocentrism in his Dialogue on the two world systems, but he was put on trial never…
The House of Commons Modernisation Committee
In 2024, the UK House of Commons established a new ‘Modernisation Committee’, modelled on a previous 1997–2010 committee of the same name. This article revisits the record of that earlier committee, to re-examine a series of prominent claims about its work from existing literature. We make several new contributions by developing quantitative indicators of various aspects of the committee’s work, studying the full lifetime of the committee, and co…
Inquisitions and Other Trial Procedures in the Medieval West
'Inquisition' was the new form of criminal procedure that was developed by the lawyer-pope Innocent III and given definitive form at the Fourth Lateran Council of 1215. It has since developed a notoriety which has obscured the reality of the procedure, and it is this that Professor Kelly is first concerned with here. In contrast to the old Roman system of relying on a volunteer accuser-prosecutor, who would be punished in case of acquittal, the i…

Inquisition and the Prosecution of Heresy
The year 1988 marked the 100th anniversary of the publication of H. C. Lea's A History of the Inquisition of the Middle Ages. I would like to get the next century off to a good start by renaming his enterprise "A History of the Criminal Prosecution of Heretics in the Middle Ages." The term inquisition has been widely misunderstood and misused by historians. There are two distinct abuses, one upper-case and the other lower-case
Judicial Processes for and against Bishop Reginald Pecock
Reginald Pecock, who became bishop of St. Asaph’s in 1444 and of Chichester in 1450, was the only bishop in the Middle Ages to be found guilty of heresy. But contrary to standard accounts that he was accused and convicted of heresy in 1457, this article asserts that he was initially treated mildly by the ecclesiastical authorities, and found guilty only of errors, not heresies. But immediately after his trial he was forced by lay and clerical pre…
Luther at Augsburg, 1518
Leo x’s brief Cum nuper , which authorised Cardinal Cajetan to put Luther on trial but did not restrict debate between them, was sent not on 11 September 1518, as has been generally believed, but on 2 November. It referred to a lost brief countermanding the order of 23 August for Luther's arrest: this brief instead offered a safe conduct to Rome. However, Luther's abrupt departure from Augsburg prevented this offer from being made. Exsurge Domine…
Galileo's Non-Trial (1616), Pre-Trial (1632–1633), and Trial (May 10, 1633)
This article examines Galileo's confrontations with the Holy Office of the Roman Inquisition in light of the rules and technicalities of inquisitorial procedure as set forth in the Corpus juris canonici , officially issued in 1582 under the auspices of Pope Gregory XIII. The primary decretal governing inquisition comes from the Fourth Lateran Council of 1215, which also established the regulations of sacramental confession and the seal of secrecy…
Mixing Canon and Common Law in Religious Prosecutions under Henry VIII and Edward VI
In medieval England, religious crimes were prosecuted in the ecclesiastical courts by way of inquisitorial procedure, whereas secular crimes were dealt with in the royal courts with common-law methods. This separation between the two jurisdictions was fairly well maintained until the king was recognized in 1534 as the Supreme Head of the English Church. From this time forward, there were various attemps by statutory and other means to improve can…
Philip C. Almond, The Devil
Inquisitorial Deviations and Cover-Ups
Margaret Porete, reputed author of The Mirror of Simple Souls, the book that was the cause of her being condemned to death as a heretic in 1310, has come into prominence in recent years, and her “case” is still being assessed. A notable landmark in this process is Sean Field's recent book, The Beguine, the Angel, and the Inquisitor. Most of our knowledge of Margaret comes from the extant records of the judicial proceedings concerning her and Guia…
Make‐Over or Tune‐Up
The assumption of our roundtable is that an increasing number of students are in need of religious instruction because they come from a secularized society, meaning a society no longer imbued with Judeo‐Christian values. I respond by acknowledging that there is a great need for providing information about the way Christianity (and Judaism and Islam) functioned in the Middle Ages, while emphasizing that every student needs it: not only just secula…

Thomas More on Inquisitorial Due Process
In two treatises of 1533, Christopher St German accused the English bishops of grossly unjust prosecution of heresy suspects. Thomas More vigorously defended the prelates in his Apology and Debellation of Salem. Modern historians have concluded that St German had the better of the dispute, judging that he was only wanting fair trials for suspects, with More countering that this would flood the land with heretics. In fact, More asserted that the b…

Introduction
Tragedy and the Performance of Tragedy in Late Roman Antiquity
It is a widely held view that by the beginning of the Christian era the staging of full-length dramas had become very rare or had ceased altogether, and that any plays that were written during this time, like the ten 'Senecan’ plays that survive, were probably intended as no more than closet dramas. But the question of whether such plays were ever staged (and hence the question of whether they were intended to be staged or were even stageable) is…
