Until now, such violence had no name, let alone a set of policies designed to identify and prevent it.

The Inquisition typically conjures up images of intolerance, persecution, and violence, and rightly so. Many people think of it as a reflection of the spiritual, scholastic, and scientific darkness of the medieval period.
