In 1478, Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile created an organization that went down in history as the Spanish Inquisition. The fundamental difference between the Spanish Inquisition and the institutions of the Catholic Church of the same name operating throughout Europe was that it put the interests of royal power above all else and for their sake sometimes conflicted with the popes. The Spanish inquisitors paid little attention to the persecution of witches, but they did not hesitate to engage in political investigation and severely punished everyone who interfered with the achievement of state and religious unity in Spain - primarily Muslims, Jews, Lutherans. Thousands and thousands of people were forcibly converted by them to Christianity, and then punished for being insufficiently zealous Christians. In his famous work, Samuil Lozinsky describes in detail the existence of the Spanish Inquisition - from its formation to its abolition in the first quarter of the 1914th century. The book, which was published in XNUMX, is published for the first time in modern Russian orthography.
