(ANTISEMITICA). FRANCISCO DE TORREJONCILLO.
Sentinella contra judeos [“Sentinel against the Jews.”]
Translated from Spanish into Portuguese.
pp. (4), 202, (2). Light wear. Contemporary mottled calf, rubbed. 12mo.
Porto, Manoel Pedroso Coimbra, 1745.
Written by a Spanish friar who records here a wealth of Christian anti-Judaism along with popular stereotypes about Jews (including the belief that Jews possessed tails).
A central theme was to prove that Jewish converts were false Christians since their hatred of Christianity could not be erased by baptism, but continued to transmit due to family lineage. Hence the need for statutes of Blood Purity (“limpieza de sangre”) to separate “new Christians" from “old Christians."
