This Happened in My Presence : Moriscos, Old Christians, and the Spanish Inquisition in the Town of Deza, 1569-1611 Hardback

Edited by Patrick J. O'Banion

Hardback

Description

This Happened in My Presence reveals life in the small Spanish town of Deza during a period that was complex and tumultuous.

The introduction explains the medieval origins of Deza's Christian, Muslim, and Jewish populations and the changing policies toward religious minorities under the Catholic Monarchs and the Hapsburgs.

The workings of the Spanish Inquisition and of Deza's local religious and political institutions are clearly described.

Helpful pedagogical materials enhance the primary sources: a timeline interweaving local, national, and international events; a cast of characters; four modern images of Deza; maps; a glossary; discussion questions; and a bibliography.

Each set of documents is accompanied by a brief introduction and focus questions.
