Reviews

“Kathy Stuart has written an excellent study of suicide by proxy, a term she uses to refer to people who committed crimes, usually the killing of young children, with the intention of being executed. ... Stuart’s most important contribution is her linking suicides by proxy to social discipline, which, historians agree, greatly increased among both Protestants and Catholics during the Reformation era. ... Stuart has ... produced an excellent piece of scholarship.” (Jeffrey R. Watt, Austrian History Yearbook, March 11, 2024)
