El debate sobre la imagen en la España del siglo XV: judíos, cristianos y conversos

Abstract

This article analizes the polemic on religious images in Spain during the XVth century, and edits two nuclear texts for its reconstruction: two chapters from the apologetic works of Fr. Alonso de Espina and Pablo de Santa Maria. These texts represent opposite attitudes toward the "image problem" in a moment when images became a major issue of the religious conflict between Jews, "conversos" and old Christians.
