| Abstract: |
This study concerns the accounts of the vicar of Barcelona, Pere Ferrer, for 1240–1. Few account booklets of the Aragonese king’s officials survive from this period and this is the first chronologically. The accounts provide us with important information on the role of the king’s vicar in the government of the city of Barcelona and also offer us an interesting insight into the law and society of the time. Most significantly, the accounts reveal the circumstances and development of an inquisition against heretics in the region of Barcelona and the manner in which that society was organized for the pursuit of those considered guilty of heretical error [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
