This title argues that the Portuguese Inquisition's stated intention of extirpating heresies and purifying Portuguese Catholicism was a monumental hoax; the true purpose of the Holy Office was the fabrication rather than the destruction of ""Judaizers"".

Recent comparative, interdisciplinary scholarship has underscored the Inquisition’s function in the imperial and colonial Iberian world, particularly in relation to the development of modernity. This book illustrates and enhances these debates on the Inquisition’s relationship to imperialism, colonialism, and modernity through specific case studies of New Christians who became the target of the Inquisition. Drawing on research in the archives of the Spanish and the Portuguese Inquisition in different parts of the Iberian Atlantic World, it analyzes literary writings and inquisitorial testimonies produced by individuals of Jewish heritage who lived in the Iberian Atlantic world during the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and brings to light the direct and mediated discourse produced by New Christians, revealing the still veiled contributions of an important but understudied ethnic and social group.

"Deza and Its Moriscos refocuses historiographical debates about the so-called Morisco problem, a defining crisis for early modern Spain. Drawing deeply upon a diverse collection of archival material as well as early printed works, this study illuminates internal conflicts, external pressures brought to bear by the Inquisition, episcopacy, and crown, as well as the possibilities and limitations of negotiated communal life at the dawn of modernity"--

Esta obra, aparecida por primera vez en 1901, es el fruto de las investigaciones del editor norteamericano Henry Charles Lea (Filadelfia, 1825-1901), quien, una vez retirado, dedicó su atención a la Iglesia Medieval y a la Inquisición. Su labor investigadora, que culminó con una Historia de la Inquisición española (1905-1907), tuvo también presente la tragedia de los moriscos españoles y, así, ofrece aquí una síntesis compendiosa acerca del problema morisco, planteando el papel determinante que la Inquisición jugó en la expulsión de dicho colectivo. Esta edición, con una cuidadosa traducción de Jaime Lorenzo Miralles contextualizada por el prólogo introductorio y las notas de Rafael Benítez Sánchez-Blanco, permite rescatar un texto precursor en la historiografía dedicada a España en los siglos XV y XVI.

There has been a widely-held consensus among historians that the Moriscos of Spain made little or no attempt to assimilate to the majority Christian culture around them, and that this apparent obduracy made their expulsion between1609 and 1614 both necessary and inevitable. This book challenges that view. Assimilation, coexistence, and tolerance between Old and New Christians in early modern Spain were not a fiction or a fantasy, but could be a reality, made possible by the thousands of ordinary individuals who did not subscribe to the negative vision of the Moriscos put around by the propagandists of the government, and who had lived in peace and harmony side by side for generations. For some, this may be a new and surprising vision of early modern Spain, which for too long, and thanks in large part to the Black Legend, has been characterized as a land of intolerance and fanaticism. This book will help to rebalance the picture and show sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Spain in a new, infinitely richer and more rewarding light. Trevor J. Dadson FBA is Professor of Hispanic Studies at Queen Mary, University of London, andis currently President of the Association of Hispanists of Great Britain & Ireland. In 2008 he was elected a Fellow of the British Academy.
