Announcement relating to the edict of expulsion of the Moors from the kingdom of Aragon

The expulsion of nearly three hundred thousand Hispanic Moriscos, decided by Philip III on 4 April 1609, was the culmination of the process of eliminating religious minorities that began in our country with the expulsion of the Jews in 1492 and put an end to the more or less peaceful coexistence that had been taking place since the Middle Ages between Christians and Mudejars. The compulsory conversion of the Mudejars, after the conquest of the Kingdom of Granada (1492), now known as Moriscos, brought the conflict to a standstill for a few decades, during which there was equal parts distrust and support, hostility and rapprochement. The different solutions proposed for the assimilation of the Moriscos, ranging from evangelisation to inquisitorial repression, show that doctrinal controversies also involved a political process of repression motivated by the context of the Hispanic Monarchy’s ongoing conflicts with the Turks and Barbary pirates in the Mediterranean. The uprising of the Moors in Granada (1568-1570) marked the end of illusions about the possibility of mutual understanding. The general expulsion sanctioned the triumph of an exclusive Catholicism in Spain. The vicissitudes in which the expulsion took place and the social and economic consequences of forced emigration were suffered throughout the 17th century and are detailed in thousands of documents recorded in volumes and bundles in the Archive of the Crown of Aragon.

Jesuit Luis Pimentel’s request for more religious

Within the framework of the evangelisation process in the Indies and other Spanish colonies, the Spanish monarchy developed an intense evangelisation process in the Mariana Islands and, by extension, in the Pacific territories under its dominion. In the case of the Philippines, this evangelisation was carried out intensively by Jesuits. In the same way, from the Philippines, the idea of trying to evangelise eastern territories, such as China, was postulated, as requested by Luis Pimentel, procurator general of the Society of Jesus in the Philippines.

The presence of the Hispanic Monarchy in America resulted in the spread of the identity of the conquerors, their language, developing an intense process of evangelisation, hispanisation and acculturation. In this context, the first universities were created in the mid-16th century, such as those of Mexico (1551) and Lima (1555).

In this case, he talks about the outstanding role played by the Dominican friar Fray Bartolomé de las Casas as an indoctrinator of the indigenous peoples. Biographical data and key moments in his life are also provided, not without accompanying the narration with historical notes on the conquest of the New World.
