Friedrich Spee von Langenfeld was a Jesuit, poet, and fearless critic of the witch trials. With his work "Cautio Criminalis," he opposed torture and championed human dignity—long before terms like "human rights" were coined. This book makes it clear: Spee's voice resonates to this day. Contributions from theologians, historians, writers, and artists bring his legacy to life—in songs, texts, images, and contemporary reflections on conscience, courage, and resistance. An invitation to rediscover Spee—as a poet, as a thinker, and as a champion of human rights.
The book will be available after the presentation for €34.90.
