    Estrategias políticas de un familiar de la Inquisición en Buenos Aires. El caso de Juan Ignacio de Ezcurra (1784-1806)
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2021-12-01) Nasif, Samir
    The article explores a case brought forward to the Cabildo of Buenos Aires after the annual election of council positions held in January 1804. The sudden resignation of one of the elected mayors triggered a dispute involving several government agencies and even resonating in the Madrid Court. Using documents from multiple sources, and drawing from the methodological contributions of the new political history, the jurisdictional approach to political power, and Inquisition studies, the study focuses on the strategic use of appeals and political powers, as well as on the juxtaposition of privileges and positions among Inquisition “familiares”. It also approaches the dispute as part of the confrontational dynamics of local elite groups, where capitulars’ connections with Court procu-ration mechanisms was highly relevant. Furthermore, the study considers the monarchy’s polysynodal rationale, as well as an evolving global context where certain privileges (especially within the Inquisition’s jurisdiction) were being seriously challenged.

    Los proyectos de instauración de tribunales de la Inquisición en la frontera urbana colonial de la región «platina»: Tucumán y Río de la Plata (siglos XVII-XVIII)
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2019-08-26) Vassallo, Jaqueline
    In this work we address proposals for the creation of Inquisition courts by inquisitorial, royal, and ecclesiastical authorities, between the 17th and 18th centuries, due to the immense territorial extension of the Lima court’s jurisdiction, and the problems that derived from it. This study specially focuses on the governorates of Tucumán and Rio de la Plata, as part of the so-called «región platina», a space linking population centers of the colonial urban borderland shared by Portuguese, Castilians, Spanish Creoles, and Portuguese Americans.

    Contra los gravísimos males que combaten la Religión y el Estado: Inquisición e Iglesia en Cuba a inicios del siglo XIX
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2019-08-26) Fernández Mellén, Consolación
    Between 1810 and 1824 the Spanish Antilles witnessed the beginning, maturation and culmination of Independence in the continental American territories, while Spain—beginning with the French invasion of the Iberian Peninsula in 1808—lived through its first two experiences with Liberalism. Neither of these historical developments would have been possible without the subversion of the absolute monarchy—at that time in the person of Fernando VII—, the consequences of which were perceived in the islands. After the restoration of absolutism, emerging voices in Cuba tried to adapt inquisitorial structures to the new reality that, imposed by external events, conditioned the development and effective action of the Inquisition on the islands. This article aims to reconstruct a project to establish a new Inquisition tribunal in Havana, which was presented as an appropriate instrument for the control of ideas, the defense of religion and against heresy.

    El establecimiento de la Inquisición en Brasil: un proyecto frustrado
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2019-08-26) Santos Pereira, Ana Margarida
    The Inquisition of Lisbon extended its jurisdiction to the Portuguese territories of the Atlantic, including Brazil. Nonetheless, the religious authorities and the settlers themselves, or at least some, frequently requested the establishment of a court in Portuguese America. In this article, we will analyse the projects that were discussed in the 17th century, with a view to achieving that objective. Starting from the information contained in the inquisitorial documentation, we will try to show that Monarchy, Church and Inquisition had disparaging interests, and this was decisive so that none of the proposals under discussion came to be put into practice.

    ¿Gestión de la distancia o reajuste de jurisdicciones? La propuesta de fundación de un tribunal del Santo Oficio en las Filipinas por el jesuita Francisco Velho (1658)
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2019-08-26) Rodrigues Lourenço, Miguel
    This article aims to analyze the role of the Jesuit brother Francisco Velho as procurador general of the Jesuit Province of the Philippines in Madrid. During his stay at the Court, Velho presented three memorials that attempted to solve the difficult question of the spiritual dependence of the islands of Maluku. He proposed to the Consejo de Indias and the Consejo de la Suprema Inquisición the creation of a tribunal of the Holy Office in Manila. In this study we will analyze how the Holy Office was perceived in the strategy of the procurador general of the province of the Philippines. Likewise, we will consider why the project failed.
