The worst tortures of the Inquisition (10 photos)

In 1507 in g.Bamberg, Bavaria, was written the book «Die Bambergische Peinliche Halsgerichtsordnung», something like "Bamberg torture Procedure." The book is considered the "cornerstone" of German criminal law.
The author was not a lawyer, but simply a knight, who has made judicial career at the court of the then Prince-Bishop of Bamberg. In what was no contradiction - because truth can be difficult to figure out either by manipulating fingerprints and genetic analysis of saliva and sperm, but you can just ask the knowledgeable. The second way is clearly easier. Knight could ask.
In addition to the dry prose, the book has been supplied and illustrations for children's spontaneity. "Came the plaintiff", "preparation for questioning," "penalties", "escorted to the penalty».
By the time the pictures were attached appropriate instructive verses. For example, "seeing to death," the priest turns to the sentenced person with a poem:
Wo du Gedult hast in der Peyn
So wirt Sie dir gar nutzlich sein
Darumb gib dich willig darein
Loosely translated:
Patience in the flour you bear,
Serve your favor - you quietly dvinesh horses.
Time was simple and plain words, reaching the serdtsa.

Torture in Europe is inextricably linked with Christianity. They are everywhere with
something so connected, here in Europe with Christianity. They say the holy
Matthew wrote: "Son of man (ie, Christ) bestow his angels,
and they will gather around his kingdom all iniquity, and all that
do evil, and throw everything into the fiery furnace and come weeping and gnashing
of teeth. "

As you can see, the idea of ​​throwing the fiery furnace came to Europe from one
Israeli. Gnashing of teeth people have tried to secure themselves in
a measure of understanding.

Rothenburg (Rothenburg) have Kriminalmuseum, Museum criminal
law. They have some exposure in this regard. Something can be
to find on the Internet. Methods of execution and torture very much, every
single - masterpieces of sadism and brutal inhumanity. But there would
not to mention it.



These are the iron cage for several centuries, almost until the early 19th
century, hung all over Europe, all the cities and villages on the main
areas or large intersections at the city of churches.
Convicted in front of them slowly died from hunger, cold,
thirst and abuse the crowd.

That's when you read about the funny adventures of Baron Munchausen, or
watching a movie Zakharova (good movie), keep in mind that
City panorama lacks here is a hanging cell where
Rag something hanging and smells bad.



And this is called "pillory". The fact that post
malofunktsionalen victim slack on the ropes, can talking head,
so that the post quickly went out of fashion. It is an improved version:
head and hands were clamped in the stocks, the victim was forced to stand on
own feet the whole term (and was sedentary option) and could not
turns his head away. Sometimes, absolutely reliable, nailed to
scaffold ears.

Apparently, the public liked it, because it's so much more interesting to throw
sacrifice rotten vegetables. The stones were not welcome, because you can kill and
it's still not a penalty. Since the penalty already relied
virtually all the crimes, ranging from gos.izmeny and ending
vagrancy, the pillory citizens awarded for
relatively minor offenses - drinking, pimping, kit
the buyer like that. In this instance the museum, attached on top
Gothic plaque with the inscription «Verkehr-Sudler Umweltverschmutzer»
("Transport sinner polluter of the environment"). As you can see,
sense of humor and still has not left the Germans.

In England, in the most literal sense, no settlement could be called
"The Village", if it does not have its own pillory. In cities
there were several pieces. In the center of Paris was elegant rotating
tower with such a structure at the top, a lot of the audience, everyone wants
look.

If there happen to look through the "The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe", the
we can recall that Daniel Defoe in his time, too, was sentenced to
pillory. However, for the love of the public, showered him with flowers,
After the first day he canceled the remaining two.

The last sentence of this kind recorded in the 80s of the 19th century.



A so-called "shameful masks." These items unpretentious,
rustic, but were almost works of art representing
adorned head of fantastic creatures with long beaks or
tongue, wings, feathers and the like.

All this, however, was carried out kondovogo iron, and the beautiful, the
More weighed. Construction is also distinguished by great diversity,
probably, depending on the crime.

Some models had metal balls or pins pushed into
the victim's mouth, and he, after closing the mask could not spit it out,
often supplied with iron pins that dug into his neck when
Every careless movement, in general, the idea is not rationalization
stand still.

So punished for the "evil tongue" for blasphemy against the authorities, for women
gossip, if the woman opened her mouth in the church, or even just at
men who have decided that it somehow did not forgive. Basically,
shorter women's sentence.



These beautiful hats and wreaths for women also. Not for
beauty, and not as a reward for a nice and open heart, and
As a mark of a woman who is not married a virgin. Here,
which now has been used beauty! After one - in such a beautiful wreath.
You go to the store - dress wreath at work - dress wreath. Go songs
sing.

By the way, the left wreath - well, exactly in exactly as Yulia Tymoshenko.



But those things, too, that women wore. Not on his head, and as you say.

In short, so this is a chastity belt, many poorly imagined,
probably. That is, if a husband absented himself on business, had a right to his wife
a dress, to never know.

I'm sorry for the perversion immediately interested - that iron
thing, but so that, in principle, not in any way do not stick as well as the
also go to the toilet? I looked closely - there are holes left. But
because, you know, nothing to push, very
maaaalenkie. As a result, go to something, the poor, is coming, but all the Well top
izmazhetsya bottom.

Western feminists are beginning to understand, right?

Sometimes you read out there about how the winter evening in Sorrento, in the absence of
husband, Hidalgo hits the strings, and opens onto a balcony beautiful Donna.
Few naraskoryaku.

The honest truth.



It's a trifle, Rosenkranz, only the cross, along with the "chain»
weighing several kilograms, which was supposed to carry people without
good reason missed a church service, or fallen asleep at
her.



This cute sculpture called "Nuremberg Girl." She
consisted of two halves of the hinges and the inside was empty, like for example
dolls. On the wings inside were long iron spikes. When there
locked man thorns pierced into the body (the location was chosen
so that they do not God forbid, did not touch the vital organs). Man
She began to squirm and the only exacerbates their suffering and dying
dooolgo hurts.

Outside, matryoshka. And in Russia, the sword breaks the Decembrists, and
Siberia exiled, and his wife were driving them, with poems about freedom, which
they happily greeted at the entrance.

And here matryoshka, very cute and culturally. Outside and not think.

By the way, it's kind of true.



This reconstruction of the general form of the square of the medieval village.
Pillory, gallows An intermediate, and right behind the scenes whether the rack, then
Does something like that. Many eh Russian settlements were stationary
gallows and reared? In the capital?

And they - ALL.

On what and wanted to say.

Modern Russian man simply can not understand what
It was in Europe. And it's not just about violence, not that every
Medieval resident dozens of times in my life watching the scene
inhuman executions, with a slow winding intestines, crushing
heads, tearing at a piece of the person and the like, but still much
Besides the spectacle I delighted. Not that these executions did so deliberately
spectacular and bloody.

And their totality. Between the external wars and a civil epideyami
war, but executions and torture - continuously death was near, every minute
his lousy stinking life voyuchego European worthless. Wherever he
I roll your eyes - was death. It was impossible to take them either, nor close or
turn away, nor forget. During the uprising saw and sawed chertvertovali,
for dissatisfaction with the authorities tore language, blasphemy burned at
the stake for cursing wore a mask for prostitution stigma for missing
Service put the cross, and always able to do it just like that, for
stated or whim. Each step is to neighbors, relatives and
familiar, and he followed all. The man was bound hands, feet,
head in a vise, rasperty eyelids and ears nailed - Look, bitch,
Feel every second of feeling.

A few hundred years, Europeans have held a Nyurnbegskoy Maiden.

We, Russian, just do not understand. That is here I'll tell myself
I do not understand, do not realize what kind of abyss of hell over there inside. There's no
could not all die off.

In fact, they have only the first couple of generations, free from it. Executions
with self-harm in so-called "Civilized" countries gradually
die in the first half of the 19th century. Corporal punishment - in the first
20. The first half of the black woman, that does not make room white,
only just died. In uncivilized countries, torture and executions has not
withered away, so now carry civilization tortured and executed - in
uncivilized, they have themselves a torture and execution withered away.

Here's how to judge if Mom and Dad are afraid to bloody sweat clang
iron at his door, and the kids will be scared even if clang ceases
It is associated with a terrible risk of death. If mom and dad an alien krovischa
knee is not an abomination, and a beautiful sight, and even charitable
business, depending on who executed - and then the kids grow up with exactly the same
consciousness.

And if those fathers and mothers, grandfathers and grandmothers - to an endless series
five hundred years ago, you may need five hundred years to from
People's blood reflexes disappeared.

It is difficult to understand why in the mid-20th century, it is a "civilized»
Germans herded Belarusian peasants in barns and burned alive. None of
They have not seen burnings. But the inquisition is still alive in them zhivehonka. It is, in
the standards of the national consciousness, was yesterday. It is in fairy tales, in a lullaby
song in grandfather's chest, in my grandmother's eyes, in education and
Culture, in the soul, in short.

The hypothesis that in the etching of some terrible prints in the soul of the people
requires the same amount of time as lasting imprint of course,
speculative. But just try and disprove.

That red commissars Stalin gulag. My grandparents, with
lived, did not talk about. In the literal sense - neither good nor bad,
in any way. All told, and if so ask - compress lips and
silent. And it is - affected, right? Parents, catching children scold
could, but - as a state. With the knowledge that it was - the power system,
and you're only human.

And only the current younger generation finally completely free. For him
it is a story, which can be taken seriously or not
treated in any way, by his own choice. You can not know, can
respect, you can play with Stalin, Trotsky and the White Sea Canal, both
a ball of thread. Just a term that does not fill - and remains
empty. (Although there how to say).

On the European "freedom" is only a hundred years. As our
"Unfreedom". Let us for a hundred years this went twice as a nation we
still inside not broken, compared to them, we are still five times
freer. We still do not understand that infernal black, that they have in
only souls background. Maybe it's us now and ruins, still can not believe,
that - seriously. All are looking for reasons "for which we have this." For what kishochki
is. For what denyushki there. For what is so funny eyes burst. For
something that does not believe in it. No way. What say.

I do not want to say that the Europeans - the same Nazis, clerics and
killer. I mean, they're all the same anti-Nazis, anti-clericals and
pacifists. That is, it is absolutely the same. Absolutely no difference,
which is subject to your soul, when what it is subject, to decide
some Cathedral, and European business to take the salute. Because - chertvertovanie, the wheel, squeezing the eyes, burning and gnashing
of teeth. Like yesterday.

And on the penalty pravaka Irving oprovergateli history of the Holocaust, they
It looks exactly the same mood as in the execution of leftist Hochhuth.
As to the execution of those fellows against the Arab-mongers. And as
penalty themselves Arab fellows-mongers. Endorse and support, and
hear the order - and help, they are used to. The Spaniards will arrange a bullfight between
themselves, the Germans built a pig and moved in a specified direction,
French lay down and relax, the British traitors and send poison. And to
krovischi they are not used to. It is inside of them printed.

That's what I wanted to say.
