15076Queen of Castile 1474-1504 and a Catholic Monarch who ruled jointly with her husband Ferdinand II of Aragon. 1 page Document Signed "Yo La Reina" at the top of the page and dated December 1501. The Spanish Inquisition was originally intended in large part to ensure the Catholic orthodoxy of those who converted from Judaism and Islam. This regulation of the faith of the newly converted was intensified after the royal decrees issued in 1492 and 1501 mandated that Jews and Muslims convert to Catholicism or face exile from Spain. <br/><br/>While the Spanish Inquisition had begun in 1478 it was in full force by the time of this document's creation. With the goal of cleansing all non Catholic sentiment from the Spanish nation King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella issued the Edict of Alhambra that required the force exile of all non-Catholics from Spain. The additional decree issued in October of 1501 further mandated the public destruction of non-Christian texts.<br/><br/>This Document Signed is dated only two months later in the months when the Spanish began to enact trials questioning and enforcement of the banishment of non-Catholics. It marks an important moment in history. Mounting tape marks on verso. Document has minor age related toning and fold lines not affecting text. Some writing also wraps onto the verso fold. Measures approximately 8x11". In very good condition. unknown books

An interesting and important collection of documents regarding British-Spanish relations toward the close of the French and Indian War in it's rare French and English edition. Most of the letters and papers are by Prime Minister William Pitt; Secretary of State for the Southern Department Sir Charles Wyndham the Earl of Egremont; and George Hervey the Earl of Bristol who was the British envoy at Madrid. Though not engaged in open warfare with Spain relations between Great Britain and Spain were tense and deteriorating in the late 1750s and early 1760s especially over issues of fishing rights in Newfoundland territory in the West Indies and Spanish support for the French. Though Pitt resigned as Prime Minister in late 1761 Great Britain declared war on Spain in early 1762. This collection prints documents explaining and justifying the Pitt administration's actions in the years leading up to the declaration of war. Several of the letters contain minute details of meetings and conferences between the Earl of Bristol and Spanish envoys and the Earl of Egremont's reply described by the DNB as a "masterly state paper" to the Spanish Ambassador Fuentes is included as well.
