Beskrivelse
This book is about Spanish secret Judaism and the Inquisition, which strove to uproot the 'Judaizing heresy' among baptised Jews and their descendants. Even in the eighteenth century, Cryptojudaism was still prevalent, but the Inquisition finally triumphed. This book describes the private lives of the crypto-Jews, as revealed in their confessions, together with their fate in prison and at the auto-da-fe at which they abjured their Judaism and were reconciled to the Church or, if not, burnt at the stake.
