In 1501, the Alsatian inquisitor and witch-hunter Heinrich Institoris (Kramer) was pursuing Hussites in Moravia. As part of his anti-heretical campaign, he published a pamphlet exalting the stigmatization of Lucia Brocadelli of Narni. In this pamphlet, he also praised the mystical experiences of other contemporary Italian women mystics. The present volume explores the story of this pamphlet – the motivations for its publication, its contents, its circulation, and its influence – and provides the first critical edition of its intriguing text. The intersection of female sanctity and the anxiety over diabolic witchcraft, Christian heterodoxy, Jewish obstinacy, and the growing Turkish threat provides the pamphlet’s compelling backstory. Thus, this book argues that the pamphlet crystallized some of the major religious, cultural, and politico-military concerns that prevailed in Europe shortly before the breakup of Western Christendom.

"An intimate portrait, based on newly discovered archival sources, of one of the most famous Jewish artists of the Italian Renaissance who, charged with a scandalous crime, rejected his faith and converted to Catholicism. In 1491 the renowned Jewish goldsmith Salomone da Sesso converted to Catholicism. Born in the mid-fifteenth century to a Jewish family in Florence, Salomone later settled in Ferrara, where he was regarded as a virtuoso artist whose exquisite jewelry and lavishly engraved swords were prized by Italy's ruling elite. But rumors circulated about Salomone's behavior, scandalizing the Jewish community, who turned him over to the civil authorities. Charged with sodomy, Salomone was sentenced to die but agreed to renounce Judaism to save his life. He was baptized, taking the name Ercole "de' Fedeli" ("One of the Faithful"). With the help of powerful patrons like Duchess Eleonora of Aragon and Duke Ercole d'Este, his namesake, Ercole lived as a practicing Catholic for three more decades. Drawing on newly discovered archival sources, Tamar Herzig traces the dramatic story of his life, half a century before ecclesiastical authorities made Jewish conversion a priority of the Catholic Church"--

Salomone da Sesso was a virtuoso goldsmith in Renaissance Italy. Brought down by a sex scandal, he saved his skin by converting to Catholicism. Tamar Herzig explores Salamone’s world—his Jewish upbringing, his craft and patrons, and homosexuality. In his struggle for rehabilitation, we see how precarious and contested was the meaning of conversion.

Il volume si struttura come un’indagine sulle reti delle seguaci di Girolamo Savonarola, numerose nelle due generazioni successive alla morte del predicatore e leader politico, che fu figura di riferimento fondamentale nella Firenze di fine Quattrocento. Nel tentativo di rimanere fedeli agli insegnamenti del loro capo spirituale, queste donne fecero spesso i conti, all’interno degli ordini religiosi cui appartenevano, con l’ostilità dei superiori; subirono inoltre pressioni politiche, oltre a dover sopportare quell’avversità nei confronti del protagonismo femminile che era ben radicata nelle gerarchie cattoliche. Il libro offre dunque un’importante ricostruzione della presenza femminile in uno dei più significativi e controversi movimenti religiosi europei della prima età moderna.

"A Luso-Malay cosmographer who claimed to have discovered Ophir, a Franciscan friar who headed a delegation of shabby fraudulent emissaries from the Orient, a Dominican tertiary's confirmed stigmata eventually revealed as fraud but later venerated again as saintly, a Jewish convert who was suspected of both demonic possession and of feigned sanctity, poor folk who survived by converting time and again in order to enjoy the benefits accorded to neophytes, religious chameleons who adapted themselves to the surroundings in which they found themselves, and a number of possessed girls--these are some of the figures re-enacting their charade in the pages of this volume. Twelve distinguished scholars analyse categories and individual cases of imposture in the age of geographical discoveries, of debates over the category of sanctity, and of forced conversions, thus offering a more nuanced understanding of the meaning of identity and pretence, truth and falsehood, in early modern Europe"--

" Nato a Firenze a metà del Quattrocento da una famiglia ebraica, l’orafo Salomone da Sessa si trasferì a Ferrara, dove i suoi raffinati gioielli e le sue spade riccamente decorate erano ritenute di altissimo pregio dalle donne e dagli uomini di potere allora più importanti in Italia.Voci scandalose sul suo conto iniziarono a circolare all’interno della comunità ebraica, che lo denunciò alle autorità civili. Accusato di sodomia, Salomone fu condannato a morte e accettò di convertirsi per avere salva la vita. Nel 1491 venne così battezzato e prese il nome di Ercole de’ Fedeli. Grazie al sostegno di potenti mecenati come la duchessa Eleonora d’Aragona e il suo omonimo duca d’Este, Ercole visse poi da cattolico praticante per oltre un trentennio.Attraverso la drammatica vicenda di Salomone/Ercole e della sua famiglia, ricostruita sulla base di fonti archivistiche mai utilizzate prima, Tamar Herzig getta luce sulle relazioni ebraico-cristiane, il mecenatismo e l’omosessualità nelle città italiane del XV e XVI secolo e dimostra per la prima volta quanto la conversione degli ebrei fosse una questione centrale nella politica del Rinascimento, già cinquanta anni prima che la Chiesa ne facesse una priorità."
