This book explores several historical cases involving the Spanish Inquisition's approach to defendants with mental health disorders, revealing the early modern institution's understanding of insanity and its intersection with Spanish jurisprudence and religious persecution. The author argues that the Inquisition's treatment of defendants believed to be insane provides a unique window into early modern European ideas about mental illness and the complex relationship between religion, law, and medicine during that period. By examining the Inquisition's evolving approach to defendants with mental health disorders, the book highlights the evolving understanding of the nature and treatment of insanity over time and provides invaluable insights into the intellectual and cultural landscape of early modern Spain.
