| Writer and Distinguished Research Professor at Northern Illinois University,
Stephen Haliczer is one of the leaders of the "new Inquisition scholarship".
His book on Valencia's inquisitorial tribunal, Inquisition and Society
in the Kingdom of Valencia (University of California Press, 1990) is
one of the pioneering studies of a local inquisitorial tribunal. His most
recent book, From Exaltation to Infamy; Female Mystics in the Golden Age
of Spain, which was published by Oxford University Press in the Spring of
2002, uses Inquisition case files to compare women mystics punished by the
Holy Office with those who (like Saint Teresa), were accepted by the wider
society. He has been visiting professor at the Universidad de Alcalà de
Henares (Spain) the École Prátique des Hautes Études (Sorbonne, Paris) and
Catholic University in Santiago, Chile. |
