The Malleus Maleficarum
by Peter Maxwell-Stuart
A shocking glimpse into the mind of a medieval witch hunter. In 1487, the zealous Dominican inquisitor Heinrich Kramer wrote a treatise that would have a remarkable influence on European history. Blaming women for his own lust, and frustrated by official complacency before what he saw as a monstrous spiritual menace, Kramer penned a practical guide to aid law officers in the identification and prosecution of witches. Fusing theology, lurid anecdotes and advice for those engaged in combating sorcery, The Malleus Maleficarum transports the reader into the dark heart of medieval belief - where fear of the supernatural provokes a gripping struggle for understanding and control. Kramer's book led to the burning of numerous innocents and had a lasting impact on the popular image of witchcraft. It remains a sinister symbol of fanaticism and cruelty to this day.

Die eigene Welt mit den Augen einer fremden Welt zu sehen, das ist identisch mit der Anstrengung, eine andere Gesellschaft aus sich selbst heraus zu verstehen. Zur Frage steht also: Wie sehen wir außereuropäische Kulturen, wie stellen wir sie dar — und umgekehrt, wie sehen andere Kulturen uns? In den hier gesammelten Essays geht Fritz Kramer diesen Fragen sowohl in ethnographischer wie genealogischer Perspektive nach.
