Abstract
Early Modern Europe was a world ‘on the move’, where travellers, merchants, soldiers and pilgrims met on the roads every day. In this context Malta represents an important opportunity for the study of Mediterranean slavery and religious conversions: a perfect microcosm where it is possible to analyse macro phenomena. This paper focuses on one of the most remarkable aspects of Roman Inquisition in Malta: the social control in a place where different religious jurisdictions had to coexist.File in questo prodotto:
