Converso and Morisco are the terms applied to those Jews and Muslims who converted to Christianity in large numbers and usually under duress in late Medieval Spain. The Converso and Morisco Studies series examines the implications of these mass conversions for the converts themselves, for their heirs (also referred to as Conversos and Moriscos) and for Medieval and Modern Spanish culture. As the essays in this collection attest, the study of the Converso and Morisco phenomena is not only important for those scholars focusing on Spanish society and culture, but for all academics interested in questions of identity, Otherness, nationalism, religious intolerance and the challenges of modernity.Contributors: Luis F. Bernabé Pons, Michel Boeglin, Stephanie M. Cavanaugh, William P. Childers, Carlos Gilly, Kevin Ingram, Nicola Jennings, Patrick J. O’Banion, Francisco Javier Perea Siller, Mohamed Saadan, and Enrique Soria Mesa.

"An important touchstone for scholars working on conversion and religious identity in the Iberian world." - Karoline P. Cook, Royal Holloway, University of London, in: Church History, Vol. 91, No. 4 (December 2022), pp. 921–923"This volume brings together strenuous and convincing efforts to respond to the difficulties of studying the inner as well as outer histories of two groups largely known through the documents of their persecutors. Its findings provide ample proof that the documentation produced by persecutors can, when applying the proper cautions, shed substantial light on those individuals and groups who ran afoul of the ever more stringent orthodoxy of Counter-Reformation Spain." - James S. Amelang, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, in: Renaissance Quarterly, Vol. 76, No. 3 (Fall 2023), pp. 1174–1176
