Chapiter 41: The Shadow of the Holy Office: The Inquisition in Calatayud (1226-1490)
In this harrowing and extensive episode of “From Calatayud: Voices of Sepharad,” Rabbi Yehudá ben Shlomó Albilbilí guides us through more than two centuries of inquisitorial persecution, from the first cases in 1226 to the establishment of the feared Tribunal in 1488.
Discover the full story: from the interventions of King James I protecting the Jewish converts, through the blackmail of an apostate in 1324, to the arrival of the Holy Office that forever shattered the coexistence between Jews and conversos. Based on the research of Encarnación Marín Padilla, Miguel Ángel Motis, and Álvaro López, this episode reveals real documented cases.
Listen to the testimonies extracted from the inquisitorial proceedings, where every Jewish custom was transformed into an accusation of heresy. Learn the full names of the families who were forced to convert: the Santángels, the Cabras, the Pérezes, the Santa Cruzes… A list of more than 30 documented conversos that represents the “authentic tearing apart” of the Jewish quarter.
An emotional and rigorous account of the resistance of the spirit in the face of intolerance, which includes the heartbreaking confession of Cara Díaz: “although I became a Christian, in my heart and will I was still a pure Jewess.”
