Founded by Paul III and originally aimed to eradicate Protestant heresy, it followed medieval antecedents but went beyond them by becoming a highly articulated centralized organ directly dependent on the pope. By the late sixteenth century the Roman Inquisition had developed its own distinctive procedures, legal process, and personnel, the congregation of cardinals and a professional staff. Its legal process grew out of the technique of inquisitio formulated by Innocent III in the early thirteenth century, it became the most precocious papal bureaucracy on the road to the first "absolutist" state.As Thomas F. Mayer demonstrates, the Inquisition underwent constant modification as it expanded. The new institution modeled its case management and other procedures on those of another medieval ancestor, the Roman supreme court, the Rota. With unparalleled attention to archival sources and detail, Mayer portrays a highly articulated corporate bureaucracy with the pope at its head. He profiles the Cardinal Inquisitors, including those who would play a major role in Galileo's trials, and details their social and geographical origins, their education, economic status, earlier careers in the Church, and networks of patronage. At the point this study ends, circa 1640, Pope Urban VIII had made the Roman Inquisition his personal instrument and dominated it to a degree none of his predecessors had approached. 410 0$aHaney Foundation series. 606 $aCriminal procedure (Canon law)$xHistory$y16th century 606 $aCriminal procedure (Canon law)$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aInquisition$zItaly$xHistory$y16th century 606 $aInquisition$zItaly$xHistory$y17th century 607 $aItaly$xChurch history$y16th century 607 $aItaly$xChurch history$y17th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCriminal procedure (Canon law)$xHistory 615 0$aCriminal procedure (Canon law)$xHistory 615 0$aInquisition$xHistory 615 0$aInquisition$xHistory 676 $a272/.209032 700 $aMayer$b Thomas F$g(Thomas Frederick),$f1951-$0304272 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463540103321 996 $aThe Roman Inquisition$92484772 997 $aUNINA
