Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the details of the Jetzer trial, a notorious 16th-century case involving a Dominican order scandal. It was thought that supernatural visions and miracles were proof of the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception, a belief that the Virgin Mary was born without original sin. The trial began when a novice monk claimed his visions were staged and implicated four senior members of the order. With the analysis of court documents and witness statements, the author reconstructs the events leading up to the scandalous trial, the trial itself, and the significant papal intervention it prompted. The book sheds light on the interplay between religious dogma, political intrigue, and popular belief during the Reformation. Ultimately, this book provides a multifaceted examination of a pivotal moment in religious history, demonstrating how the pursuit of religious truth can lead to both profound consequences and lasting historical impact.
