Alonso de Espina y la Fortaleza de Fe

rambam442013

Este es el quinto video que discutirá mi trabajo sobre el criptojudaísmo. El primer libro de una serie de cuatro volúmenes se titula Judíos secretos: la identidad compleja de los criptojudíos y el criptojudaísmo.

Este quinto video trata sobre Alonso de Espina, el autor del Fortalitium Fidei (La Fortaleza de la Fe). Su tratado buscaba combatir varias herejías, incluido el judaísmo. Para De Espina, la solución era clara.

El judaísmo tuvo que ser desarraigado en su núcleo para luchar adecuadamente contra la herejía entre los conversos. También discuto el interesante caso del Convero Ramon Splugues.
