Description
Constancia's Household: A Story of the Spanish Reformation is a historical novel set in 16th century Spain during the time of the Protestant Reformation. The story follows the life of Constancia, a young woman from a wealthy and devout Catholic family who becomes interested in the teachings of the Protestant reformers. As she begins to question the traditional teachings of the Catholic Church, Constancia faces opposition from her family and the Inquisition, which is determined to root out any heresy.The novel explores the themes of religious tolerance, freedom of conscience, and the struggle for individual liberty in a society dominated by religious dogma and political power. The story is also a portrait of the complex and often violent political and religious landscape of 16th century Spain, where the Inquisition wielded immense power and dissent was met with harsh punishment.Written by Emma Leslie and first published in 1872, Constancia's Household is a vivid and engaging historical novel that brings to life a fascinating period in Spanish history. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the Protestant Reformation, the Inquisition, or the struggle for religious freedom and individual rights.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
