1466 The Time of the Witches
Historical paperback novel by Philippe Favre.

Book in French in very good condition

Summary

At the heart of the 15th century, the Val d’Anniviers is quite literally set alight by fear of the devil and suspicion. The young Antoine dou Tórrènn witnesses the second wave of witch hunts. For what reason does his father, a notary, go to such lengths to save Anthonia—sought after and the subject of an investigation? The lives of the inhabitants are turned upside down and the pyres are lit, fuelled by rivalries, denunciations and greed against a backdrop of superstition. In this world where religion becomes an instrument of terror, every word, every gesture carries heavy consequences. Inspired by a true story and based on the inquisitors’ treatises, this account brings the real characters of the time back to life. It reveals both the aspirations of a mountain people seeking independence from feudal power, and the small ordinary hatreds—the breeding ground for a persecution in which women were the main victims.
