| Summary |
In more enlightened times, it is almost impossible for us to understand the power and influence of religion in years gone by. It was the cornerstone of every life. It touched almost every aspect of everyday existence. Next to the royalty, the clergy were the most powerful people in the land. This documentary series tells the story of the bloody and menacing work of the Inquisition, established to combat heresy within the Catholic Church. The first episode focuses on the persecution of the Knights Templar and the Cathars. (From the UK) (Documentary Series) MA (A,V) CC |
