商品簡介
Un maravilloso ensayo que parte de la caza de las brujas en el Renacimiento, una guerra contra las mujeres que resuena a hoy. A comienzos de la Edad Moderna tuvo lugar en Europa una caza de brujas en la que se persigui?a centenares de miles de personas, la gran mayor燰 mujeres, y se asesin?a unas sesenta mil. Qu?sabemos de las condenadas? Y de sus acusadores? Y, sobre todo, cu嫮 pudo ser el motivo de semejante locura? Adela Mu隳z P墈z, una de las ensayistas actuales m嫳 brillantes, ofrece respuestas a estas preguntas y explora el proceso, orquestado durante siglos por la Iglesia, que convirti?a las mujeres en chivos expiatorios de una sociedad extraordinariamente mis鏬ina. Al contrario de lo que suele pensarse, las persecuciones m嫳 agresivas no se dieron en Espa鎙, las penas m嫳 crueles no las impusieron los tribunales eclesi嫳ticos, y la Inquisici鏮 no fue el brazo ejecutor de la caza, sino la principal opositora a la misma. El texto se ocupa adem嫳 de herej燰s, bulas papales, grimorios, exorcismos y hechizos, y rememora los juicios de las brujas de Salem y Zugarramurdi, as?como la historia de sus perseguidores y de sus defensores. Aunque no hubo aquelarres ni vuelos de brujas, s?hubo dolor y muerte en las hogueras prendidas a lo largo y ancho de la Europa de la 廧oca. En nombre de las brujas cuyas voces no ser嫕 o獮as jam嫳, hemos de ayudar a poner freno a la superstici鏮 y el odio que a hoy siguen cobr嫕dose decenas de miles de vidas.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A wonderful essay that begins with the witch hunts in the Renaissance, a war against women that still resonates today. At the beginning of the Modern Era there was a witch hunt in Europe, where hundreds of thousands of people, mostly women, were persecuted and about sixty thousand were killed. What do we know about those convicted? About their accusers? And above all, what could motivate such madness? Adela Mu隳z P墈z, one of today's most brilliant essayists, answers these questions and explores the process--orchestrated for centuries by the Catholic Church--that turned women into scapegoats for an extraordinarily misogynistic society. Contrary to what you might think, the most aggressive persecutions didn't happen in Spain, the cruelest punishments were not imposed by ecclesiastical courts, and the Inquisition was not the executive arm in the hunt, but the main objector. This text also focuses on heresy, papal bulls, grimoires, exorcisms, and spells, and remembers the witch trials at Salem and Zugarramurdi, as well as the history of their persecutors and defenders. Even though there weren't any covens or witches flying, there was pain and death in those fires lit all across Europe at the time. On behalf of the witches whose voices will never be heard, we must help stop superstition and hatred, still claiming dozens of thousands of lives today.
