1572RF 1076<p><strong>Royal Provision of Phillip II Confirming and Ratifying the Privileges Granted by the Masters of the Order of Santiago to the Village of Corral de Almaguer Toledo 1572</strong></p><p>Manuscript. Small folio. 12 1/4 x 8 1/4". 8 double-sided vellum manuscript leaves originally bound together now unbound hand painted and decorated in blue red and gilt at various points throughout the text. The first page is hand-painted and decorated along the edge and includes a large decorative initial in multiple colors. Manuscript text in gothic style. Signed "Yo el Rey" on the back of the final leaf by King Phillip II of Spain in 1572.</p><p>ATTRACTIVELY ILLUMINATED EARLY MANUSCRIPT. JUDAICA INTEREST. Our manuscript contains the 4 confirmed provisions originally drafted by Infante Henry Duke of Aragon 1421 and 1440 Alonso de Cárdenas here listed as "Alfoso" sic in 1480 and then "The Catholic Kings" in 1494 all of whom at various times served as "Grand Masters of the Order of Santiago". The provisions were instigated against the Jewish communities of the villages of Corral de Almaguer and Ocana in Toledo province. Residents of the towns affiliated with the Order of Santiago repeately complained throughout the 15th and 16th centuries to the the authorities of that order of that the Jews and later conversos had bought land from Christians and had not paid any taxes on their purchases. Ultimately the Jews of Corral de Almaguer were ordered to pay comparable taxes to the Christians for said property but the Jews of Ocana were excepted because of their previous payments of other taxes. Given the fact that this manuscript copy dates from 1572 and was signed and reconfirmed by King Phillip II so long after the expulsion of 1492 shows there were still clearly tensions and persecution of local conversos even long after the communities had converted to Catholicism.</p><p>The top left margin on the front of the first leaf contains a handwritten note in ink stating in Spanish "It consists of this-privilege that Juan Collado was a secretary of the Order of Santiago in the year 1480". There are a few additional scant marginal notes in ink throughout and additional handwritten notes and signatures some indecipherable on the verso of the final leaf under the King's signature.</p><p>This document provide a fascinating and invaluable resource to those studying the history of Jews in Spain during the 15th and 16th centuries.</p><p>Text in Spanish.</p> hardcover
