 In France, in the early 19th century, the epistolary novel "Cornelia Bororquia, or the Victim of the Inquisition", which has been attributed to Spaniard Luiz Gutiérrez, and is based on the case of María de Bohórquez, ferociously criticizes the Inquisition and its representatives.The Inquisition also appears in one of the chapters of the novel "The Brothers Karamazov" (1880) by Fyodor Dostoevsky, which imagines an encounter between Jesus and the Inquisitor General.One of the best-known stories of Edgar Allan Poe, "The Pit and the Pendulum", explores the use of torture by the Inquisition.
