History of the Inquisition of Spain

Autor: Henry Charles Lea

Número de Páginas: 1795

"A History of the Inquisition of Spain" in 4 volumes is one of the best-known works by the American historian Henry Charles Lea. The Spanish Inquisition (officially known as the "Tribunal of the Holy Office of the Inquisition") was established in 1478 by Catholic Monarchs Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile. It was intended to maintain Catholic orthodoxy in their kingdoms and to replace the Medieval Inquisition, which was under Papal control. It became the most substantive of the three different manifestations of the wider Catholic Inquisition along with the Roman Inquisition and Portuguese Inquisition. The Inquisition was originally intended primarily to identify heretics among those who converted from Judaism and Islam to Catholicism. The regulation of the faith of newly converted Catholics was intensified after the royal decrees issued in 1492 and 1502 ordering Muslims and Jews to convert to Catholicism or leave Castile. The Inquisition was not definitively abolished until 1834, during the reign of Isabella II, after a period of declining influence in the preceding century. The Spanish Inquisition is often cited in popular literature and history as an example of...

IT were difficult to exaggerate the disorder pervading the Castilian kingdoms, when the Spanish monarchy found its origin in the union of Isabella of Castile and Ferdinand of Aragon. Many causes had contributed to prolong and intensify the evils of the feudal system and to neutralize such advantages as it possessed. The struggles of the reconquest from the Saracen, continued at intervals through seven hundred years and varied by constant civil broils, had bred a race of fierce and turbulent nobles as eager to attack a neighbor or their sovereign as the Moor. The contemptuous manner in which the Cid is represented, in the earliest ballads, as treating his king, shows what was, in the twelfth century, the feeling of the chivalry of Castile toward its overlord, and a chronicler of the period seems rather to glory in the fact that it was always in rebellion against the royal power. So fragile was the feudal bond that aricohome or noble could at any moment renounce allegiance by a simple message sent to the king through a hidalgo. The necessity of attracting population and organizing conquered frontiers, which subsequently became inland, led to granting improvidently liberal franchises ...

The Spanish Inquisition

The Spanish Inquisition

Autor: Cecil Roth

Número de Páginas: 354

A history of the Inquisition in Spain from the 13th century to its abolition in 1834. States that the true Spanish Inquisition was organized in 1480 against Converso Judaizers. It succeeded in implementing the expulsion of the Jews in 1492 and grew ever more powerful through the centuries. Discusses Ferrant Martínez's anti-Jewish sermons and the wave of violence and forced conversions in 1391 which initiated the Converso problem, which was more a matter of social success than of religious purity. Stresses that the Inquisition was persecuting not Jews, but heretics within the Church (i.e. Judaizers). Describes the plight of Spanish and Portuguese Conversos at the hands of the Inquisition. Traces, also, Inquisition activities against Conversos in Mexico and Peru.

In this completely updated edition of Henry Kamen’s classic survey of the Spanish Inquisition, the author incorporates the latest research in multiple languages to offer a new—and thought-provoking—view of this fascinating period. Kamen sets the notorious Christian tribunal into the broader context of Islamic and Jewish culture in the Mediterranean, reassesses its consequences for Jewish culture, measures its impact on Spain’s intellectual life, and firmly rebuts a variety of myths and exaggerations that have distorted understandings of the Inquisition. He concludes with disturbing reflections on the impact of state security organizations in our own time.

Daily Life During the Spanish Inquisition

Daily Life During the Spanish Inquisition

Autor: James M. Anderson

Número de Páginas: 312

The life of persecuted minorities, as well as that of the wealthy and the ordinary people of Spain during the Spanish Inquisition, comes alive in this illuminating account. For three and a half centuries, the Inquisition permeated every aspect of daily life in early modern Spain. This history depicts in graphic terms the dangers faced by Jews and Muslims and their suffering at the hands of the Inquisitors, as well as the struggle for survival of the lower classes and the ostentatious display of wealth of the high nobility. Set against the political, religious, social, economic, and cultural events of the time, it presents a balanced account, rich in detail, of the daily activities of the Spanish people during this period. Each chapter offers a succinct perspective of life during early modern Spain, covering the political and social setting, the Church, the Inquisition, Jews and Conversos, Muslims and Moriscos, the court, urban and rural life, family life, clothes and fashions, food, arts and entertainment, military life, education, and health and medicine. All these aspects of life are discussed in the context of a society experiencing profound internal conflicts arising from...

This fourth and final volume mainly continues where Volume III left off. This book continues to explore the areas the inquisition had influence and the way it found out how heretics emerged and worked in the respective fields the inquisition caught them in. Although the methods were brutal and the victims often innocent, the inquisition shows how thorough it was when dealing with these "sins." And then finally, Lea shows us the steady decline of the inquisition after the wars of Napoleon and how they tried to survive but failed.

Toledo, el pozo y el péndulo

Toledo, el pozo y el péndulo

Autor: Fernando González Moreno , Alejandro Jaquero Esparcia , Margarita Rigal Aragón

Número de Páginas: 210

Edgar Allan Poe (Boston, 1809-Baltimore, 1849) publicó «El pozo y el péndulo» en octubre de 1842 en The Gift: A Christmas and New Year's Present for 1843, y ha llegado a ser uno de sus relatos más emblemáticos. Se trata de un cuento con un excepcional aliciente para el público español: su ambientación en Toledo. Pocas veces Poe sitúa sus narraciones en un espacio real concreto; sin embargo, en este caso, esta ciudad contaba con un poder evocador que el escritor no quiso desaprovechar. La tradición romántica de la que bebe Poe había propiciado una visión de la ciudad repleta de leyendas y supersticiones religiosas, muchas de ellas relacionadas con los excesos de la Inquisición. El cuento, al igual que otros de Poe, juega con elementos de gran fuerza visual, por lo cual no es de extrañar que pronto cautivara la imaginación de los ilustradores. La primera ilustración conocida fue la publicada en Londres por Clarke, Beeton & Co. en 1853; la imagen establece ya uno de los momentos más icónicos de la narración: cuando el protagonista se libera del cíngulo que lo mantenía atado a un bastidor de madera. A partir de aquí comenzarían a sumarse nuevas aportaciones...
