"Dealings with the Inquisition; Or, Papal Rome, Her Priests, and Her Jesuits" by Rev. Giacinto Achilli is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The book delves into the author's experiences during his imprisonment within the Roman Inquisition, critiquing the oppressive practices of Papal Rome and advocating for religious freedom. This narrative aims to illuminate the continuation of the Inquisition's cruel methods and raise awareness about the struggles for truth and liberty in the face of ecclesiastical tyranny. The opening of the book sets the stage for Achilli's account of his imprisonment, which began in July 1842 and continued for six months at the hands of the Inquisition. He expresses his determination to share his story, focusing not merely on his suffering but on the broader implications of his imprisonment. The chapter reveals Achilli's conviction that the Inquisition remains a malevolent force in contemporary society, employing fear and intimidation against those who oppose its doctrines. This introductory narrative not only recounts Achilli's personal tribulations but also serves as a passionate call to action against the injustices perpetrated by the Church of Rome, laying a foundation for the detailed revelations that follow throughout the text.
