Events

  • 1455-1487: The War of the Roses between the houses of York and Lancaster, both contenders to the English throne.[1]
  • The Third Council of the Council of Nine meets in Horizon.[2]
  • According to the Fama, Father Christian dies, unaffected by disease, but summoned instead by the spirit of God.[3]
  • Pope Innocent IV releases his Witch-Bull, Summis desiderantes, which condemns witchcraft as a practice but does not classify it as a heresy. In response, Kramer and Sprengel compose the Malleus Maleficarum, a treatise warning of the presence of witches in European society.[4] The Catholic church rejects the Malleus almost immediately, even going so far as to censure Kramer, but it nonetheless becomes a guidebook for secular courts.[5][6]
