Zusammenfassung: | "In 1686 in Geneva, a single mother named Jeanne Catherine Thomasset was charged with poisoning two young children: her own illegitimate daughter and the son of a rural wet nurse. This began a protracted criminal trial during which authorities interrogated Jeanne Catherine several times, sometimes with torture, in order to determine the truth. Throughout, Jeanne Catherine consistently maintained her innocence and expressed distress at her daughter's death. The Trial of Jeanne Catherine is a suspenseful historical mystery offering key information about early modern motherhood, child rearing, gender, religion, local politics, and the practice of criminal justice in the seventeenth century. The book provides the complete trial transcript as well as the deliberations of the Genevan authorities and relevant correspondence, allowing students to analyse and draw their own conclusions about the reasons for infanticide prosecutions as well as their impact on the experience of motherhood in early modern Europe."-- |

spelling | The trial of Jeanne Catherine infanticide in early modern Geneva edited and translated by Sara Beam Toronto ; Buffalo ; London University of Toronto Press 2021 vii, 154 Seiten Illustrationen, Karten txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier This volume presents all the documents of the trial, translated into English from the original French "In 1686 in Geneva, a single mother named Jeanne Catherine Thomasset was charged with poisoning two young children: her own illegitimate daughter and the son of a rural wet nurse. This began a protracted criminal trial during which authorities interrogated Jeanne Catherine several times, sometimes with torture, in order to determine the truth. Throughout, Jeanne Catherine consistently maintained her innocence and expressed distress at her daughter's death. The Trial of Jeanne Catherine is a suspenseful historical mystery offering key information about early modern motherhood, child rearing, gender, religion, local politics, and the practice of criminal justice in the seventeenth century. The book provides the complete trial transcript as well as the deliberations of the Genevan authorities and relevant correspondence, allowing students to analyse and draw their own conclusions about the reasons for infanticide prosecutions as well as their impact on the experience of motherhood in early modern Europe."-- Geschichte 1686 gnd rswk-swf Kindesmord (DE-588)4163869-4 gnd rswk-swf Strafverfahren (DE-588)4116634-6 gnd rswk-swf Genf (DE-588)4020137-5 gnd rswk-swf Thomasset, Jeanne Catherine / Trials, litigation, etc / Sources Trials (Infanticide) / Switzerland / Geneva / History / 17th century / Sources Infanticide / Switzerland / Geneva / History / 17th century / Sources Criminal justice, Administration of / Switzerland / Geneva / History / 17th century / Sources Motherhood / Switzerland / Geneva / History / 17th century / Sources Criminal justice, Administration of Infanticide Motherhood Trials Trials (Infanticide) Switzerland / Geneva 1600-1699 History Sources Genf (DE-588)4020137-5 g Kindesmord (DE-588)4163869-4 s Strafverfahren (DE-588)4116634-6 s Geschichte 1686 z DE-604 Beam, Sara (DE-588)14094057X edt Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, epub 978-1-4875-8769-7 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, pdf 978-1-4875-8770-3 Digitalisierung BSB München - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=032600535&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis |
