In the Shadow of the Virgin: Inquisitors, Friars, and Conversos in Guadalupe, Spain - Jews, Christians, and Muslims from the Ancient to the Modern World
Gretchen D. Starr-LeBeau
On June 11, 1485, in the town of Guadalupe, the Holy Office of the Inquisition executed Alonso de Paredes - a converted Jew who posed an economic and political threat to the town's powerful friars - as a heretic. This book considers the relationship between religious identity and political authority in late-Medieval and early-modern Spain.
