Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive insight into a particular auto-da-fe, an act of the faith in 1646, in New Spain (Mexico). It was presided over by the Mexican Inquisition Tribunal and authorized by the Archbishop of Mexico. The Mexican Inquisition aimed to preserve the purity of the Catholic faith and prevent the spread of opposing ideologies. This act of the faith was held to punish those who had strayed from the Catholic doctrine through various offenses like practicing Judaism in secret, performing unauthorized religious ceremonies, and holding prohibited beliefs. Through the trials and sentences described in this book, we gain insights into the religious climate of the period, the strategies employed by the Jewish community to maintain their faith while facing persecution, and the methods used by the Inquisition to suppress religious dissent. The book also sheds light on the social and cultural dynamics within the Mexican society of the time, making it a valuable resource for understanding the complexities of religious persecution and the interplay between power, faith, and society in colonial Mexico. Its historical importance lies in its detailed accounts of individual cases and the broader context of religious intolerance during that era.
