The book provides a detailed account of how the Inquisition was established in Portugal, including its origins, its purpose, and the people who were involved in its creation. Herculano also examines the impact of the Inquisition on Portuguese society, including the persecution of Jews, Muslims, and other religious minorities. The book is a comprehensive study of the Inquisition in Portugal, and it provides valuable insights into this dark period in the country's history. It is an essential read for anyone interested in Portuguese history, religious history, or the study of authoritarian regimes.1926. The documents used in this volume are, for the most part, drawn up by the very men who took part in those varied intrigues, and they are largely the originals themselves.

This work traces the history and origin of the Inquisition in Portugal from the Inquisition in Europe to the Inquisition being established without restriction in 1547 and 1548, with an epilogue of 1561.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
