Resumen
ITA RUBIO, Lourdes de. Foreignness, Protestantism and Inquisition: English and French in Spanish America during the formal establishment of the Inquisition in New Spain. Sig. his [online]. 2017, vol.19, n.38, pp.8-55. ISSN 1665-4420.
In this essay I discuss the relationship among foreignness, Protestantism and the formal establishment of the Tribunal of the Holy Office of the Inquisition in New Spain in the complex geopolitical context of the 16th century, when the Anglo-Spanish and French-Spanish relationships had been deteriorating. I consider some English and French incursions into New Spain during the 1560s and the early 1570s. These derived into an English contingent and a French one, whose survivors would be the first prosecuted and punished by the Inquisition -which had just been established in Mexico- on the charge of Lutheran heresy.
