10 Inquisition, Portuguese
Known also as the Holy Office of the Inquisition, Portugal's Inquisition was established in 1536 under King João III and was finally abolished only in 1821. The initial motives for establishing this institution were more political than religious; King João III saw it as an instrument to increase central power and royal control in Portugal. Permission for its foundation was granted by the papacy in Rome, but the Inquisition's judges and officers were appointed by the Portuguese king, not by the papacy. Seven years after its establishment, the Inquisition's first victims were burned at the stake in Évora. Eventually, the Holy Office of the Inquisition became a kind of state within a state, with its own bureaucracy, censors who acted as a "thought police" over the faithful as well as over heretics or dissidents, and police who maintained their own prisons. The period of this infamous institution's greatest power to persecute, prosecute, and execute heretics was during the 16th and 17th centuries. During the administration of the Marquis of Pombal (1750-77), the Inquisition's power was curtailed. By 1821, when it was abolished by reformist governments, the Inquisition no longer had much significance.For centuries, however, the Inquisition generated fear and was able to amass wealth, goods, and property confiscated from victims. In the history of Portuguese politics and culture, the Inquisition has symbolized cruel oppression, the spirit of discrimination, and religious persecution of heretics and minorities, including Jews who were often forcibly converted. It created an era of censorship of intellectual activity, injustice, bigotry, racism, and anti-Semitism, and raised questions about the role and power of the Catholic Church in society and the relationship between the Church and state. Some opponents of the Estado Novo quite justifiably compared the Inquisition's control of free thought and action with that of the Estado Novo in its day. -

12 ride roughshod over smb.
(ride (trample или walk) roughshod over smb. (или smth.))тиранить кого-л.; самоуправствовать, действовать деспотически, помыкать кем-л.; совершенно не считаться с кем-л. (или с чем-л.), попирать чьё-л. человеческое достоинство‘Oh! you take that tone,’ he said, ‘Do you? You think you can ride roughshod over everything? Well, you're very much mistaken.’ (J. Galsworthy, ‘Caravan’, ‘A Stoic’) — - А! Вы начинаете разговаривать таким тоном! - сказал Вентнор. - Вы думаете, что вам удастся всегда так бесцеремонно командовать? На этот счет вы очень ошибаетесь.
...If Prussianism is to walk rough-shod over civilization... then life is not worth having. (H. G. Wells, ‘Mr. Britling Sees It Through’, book II, ch. I) —...если пруссачество будет попирать цивилизацию ногами... то жизнь потеряет всякий смысл.
They realized, too, that one of those conflicts lay before them in which there were going to be victims and perhaps loss of life. But their blood was up. The spirit of working men who had struggled against injustice and oppression all through the ages, burning in them, refused to consider any other course than resistance to those who would ride roughshod over them in order to favour the rich and powerful. (K. S. Prichard, ‘The Roaring Nineties’, ch. 50) — Они понимали также, что предстоящая стычка не обойдется без жертв, даже, быть может, будет стоить кому-нибудь из них жизни. Но это не останавливало трудового народа, из века в век борющегося против несправедливости и угнетения; боевой дух жил в каждом из них и указывал им единственный возможный для них путь - путь борьбы с теми, кто хотел растоптать их права в угоду богатым и могущественным.
The panels, in theme and execution, contradicted everything they had expected, offended against the ordinary, set the normal at defiance, rode roughshod over all their inherent ideas and traditions. (A. J. Cronin, ‘A Thing of Beauty’, part IV, ch. IX) — Панно - по теме и по манере исполнения - никак не отвечали тому, что все ожидали увидеть: такая живопись оскорбляла посредственные умы, бросала вызов всем привычным представлениям, совершенно не считалась с вековыми традициями и общепринятыми вкусами.
