Est Insolitum Inquirere Taliter: Latin and German Documents From Heinricus Institoris's Witch Hunts In Ravensburg and Innsbruck
14 July 2021
We are pleased to announce that our own Christopher S. Mackay has just published _Est Insolitum Inquirere Taliter_, the companion volume to his _An Unusual Inquisition_. The new _Est Insolitum_ contains the original Latin and German documents relating to the witch hunts in Ravensburg and Innsbruck, conducted by Henricus Institoris in 1484 and 1485; translations of these documents were were previously published in Prof Mackay's Unusual Inquisition.
Both volumes are part of Prof Mackay's ongoing interests in witch hunting (see his _Malleus Maleficarum_, the most famous textbook on witch hunting from the early modern period; the Malleus is available as a two-volume text and translation, and also a stand-alone translation, under the translation _Hammer of Witches_).
