In 1600, Giordano Bruno, one of the leading intellectuals of the
Renaissance, was burned at the stake on the charge of heresy by the
Roman Inquisition. He is remembered primarily for his cosmological
theories, particularly that the universe was infinite with the
Earth not being at its centre. Today, he has become a symbol of the
struggle for religious and philosophical tolerance. The Trial of
Giordano Bruno, originally published in Italian in 2018, provides
English audiences with a complete and updated reconstruction of the
inquisitorial trial by analysing the accusations, witnesses, and
legal proceedings in detail. The author also gives a detailed
profile of Bruno as well as the body which arrested and accused him
- the Inquisition. This book will appeal to all those interested in
the life and death of Giordano Bruno, as well as those interested
in Early Modern legal proceedings, the Roman Inquisition, and the
history of religious and philosophical tolerance.
