Publisher Description

Learn the history of the Spanish Inquisition with iMinds insightful knowledge series. 
The Spanish Inquisition was a governing authority started by the crown in the late-fifteenth century.  It included a network of spies who worked across the state to ensure Spaniards conformed to the accepted behaviour of traditional Catholic subjects.  It was relentless in ensuring Catholic orthodoxy within Spain.  But why was Spain so self-conscious in ensuring a singular religious identity?

Let's go back to the year 711.  Muslim armies from North Africa successfully conquer much of the Iberian Peninsula, leaving only pockets of resistance in the North.  There is Islamic rule in at least part of Spain for the most part of the next eight centuries.

Myths and mis-facts

This was filled with myths that have been long disproven by historical record. Specifically the forced conversion of Jews, and the claim of a network of spies acting as thought police. Also, many facts are nowhere to be found here. Facts that are very pertinent to the environment and motive of the inquisition. This is so contrary to history it should be taken off of the book store list. It does a disservice to people who really want to learn. It's practically criminal.
