x, 339 pages : illustrations, map ; 23 cm. Deals extensively with the persecution of Conversos after the expulsion. States that the expulsion created new problems, provoked social discord, and was criticized by Spaniards both then and thereafter. Discusses the activities of the Inquisition, anti-Converso polemics, and opposition to them. The early decades of the Inquisition effectively destroyed underground Judaism. From the mid-16th century, feeling against Jews showed itself more in prejudice than in persecution. Racial prejudice was commonplace in Spanish society long before the Inquisition became powerful; the Inquisition, therefore, was a product of the society it served, and was not to blame for Spain's political and cultural decline.
