"Even as the Protestant Reformation became a permanent feature of European religious culture, a Catholic reformation was under way in Spain. Yet social historians of the Counter Reformation have written little about this movement, concentrating instead on those of Germany, France, and Italy. Sara Nalle explores this long-overlooked history in God in La Mancha, a case study of religious change in the Castilian diocese of Cuenca." "A prosperous, religiously conformist diocese located in the heart of Europe's most militantly Catholic monarchy, Cuenca had religious concerns that were typical of central Castilian - and even Italian - dioceses that were politically stable, religiously orthodox, and well-to-do. Throughout the sixteenth century, diocesan authorities, inquisitors, and local elites worked to retrain the clergy, catechize the laity, and enforce revitalized norms of Catholic belief and morality. Using the records of local religious courts, parishes, and notarial archives, Nalle shows in striking detail how the people and clergy of Cuenca learned to conform to the new standards of modern Catholicism." "God in La Mancha will be a key book in the study of the Counter Reformation's impact on popular behavior and belief. Its conclusions regarding the movement's success will stimulate further debate about the nature of religious reform in early modern Europe."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Convinced he was the Elijah Messiah, the Spanish peasant Bartolomé Sánchez believed that God had sent him in divine retribution for the crimes committed by the Inquisition and the Church. Sánchez's vocal and intolerable religious deviance quickly landed him in the very court he believed he was sent to destroy. Fortunately for him, the first inquisitor assigned to his case came to believe that Sánchez was not guilty by virtue of insanity, and tried to collect the proof that would save his life. For seven years, Sánchez shuttled between jails, hospitals, and his home village while his fate hung in the balance. Nalle convincingly evokes the compassion of Sánchez's first inquisitor, Pedro Cortes, as he struggled to save his prisoner's life, and argues that the Spanish, compared to other Europeans of the day, were remarkably rational and humane when dealing with the mentally ill. A gripping tale of madness and religious conviction, Mad for God offers new historical insight into the ongoing debate over the nature of religious inspiration, insanity, and criminal responsibility.

Miguel de Cervantes y Saavedra was born in Alcal of Henares in 1547. He was a novelist, playwright, and poet-criticized by himself-considered as one, if not the greatest Spanish language writer of all time, even though he never studied at a university. Don Quixote is his best known work which has transcended nations, cultures, languages, epochs and times. Cervantes has been read by children and adults, men and housewives, rich and poor. He described his own portrait by writing: 'of an aquiline face, brown hair...with a silver beard that twenty years early was a golden one.'The hidalgo Don Quixote of La Mancha wishes to cleanse the world of scoundrels, talkative and goofy: Did he achieve it? Even today he is doing it because although it is utopian to think that human strength can reach such step, he learned to transcend the times and bring us that unequivocal victory while denouncing and trying to introduce some bravery inside our reasoning.We cannot look at the characters of Sancho and Don Quixote as a mere souls' contradiction of the one same people, in this case Spain. They actually complement each other in a kind of literary marriage: one wants justice, shared base of any society and reports it through his ideals, the other is practical as he wants to see them in reality; but two: the announcer and corroborator, are both active in their impeachment.
