Henry Charles Lea

Jo Tollebeek

Paul Frédéricq

American historian Henry Charles Lea and his Belgian colleague Paul Fredericq corresponded regularly between 1888 and 1908. Both pursued the study of the medieval and Spanish Inquisition. Their letters are an account of the creation of their body of work. They also reveal how history was used for political ends in an era when Europe was spellbound by the Dreyfus affair while concerns about "the power of Rome" were growing in America. --Publisher description.
