Streszczenie: | Analyzes the organization and activities of the Inquisitorial Tribunal of Valencia from its beginnings in 1484. Ch. 5 (p. 209-243), "The Converted Jews: From Persecution to Assimilation, " discusses the condition of the Conversos in Spain and their persecution by the Inquisition in Valencia. Between 1484-1530, some 2,160 Conversos were tried, representing more than 91% of all the victims of the Inquisition in that period. This campaign almost decimated the Converso community of Valencia. A later influx of Portuguese Conversos was met by a series of trials between 1701-30. Refers, also, to persecution and exclusion through "limpieza de sangre" statutes. |
