Abstract

Recently, new testimonies and analyses have come to light calling into question historians’ long-held and nearly unanimous assumption that the Morisco community was decidedly endogamous. The aim of the present study is to examine different cases and texts indicating that mixed unions between Moriscos and Old Christians may have been more frequent, more desired (despite evident geographical and social differences), and more widespread than previously assumed. These unions created certain social groups in which traditionally accepted religious boundaries became blurred. On the other hand, the Christian authorities afforded this type of mixed unions an importance that far outweighs the scant attention paid to them in the literature. Such marriages were supported and promoted by the monarchy throughout the sixteenth century, and the expulsion orders from the early seventeenth century always provided for exceptions arising from mixed unions and their descendants. These data indicate a social reality which may have been more significant and influential at the local and regional level than has previously been assumed.
莫里斯科家族的身份认同、混合结合和内婚制:重新审视新皈依者的同化
最近,新的证词和分析曝光,对历史学家长期以来几乎一致认为莫里斯科社区绝对是内婚制的假设提出了质疑。本研究的目的是研究不同的案例和文本,这些案例和文本表明,莫里斯科人和老基督徒之间的混合结合可能比以前假设的更频繁、更受欢迎(尽管存在明显的地理和社会差异)、更广泛。这些联盟建立了某些社会团体,在这些团体中,传统上接受的宗教界限变得模糊。另一方面,基督教当局对这种混合结合的重视程度远远超过了文献中对它们的关注。这种婚姻在整个16世纪都得到了君主制的支持和促进,17世纪初的驱逐令总是规定混合结合及其后代的例外情况。这些数据表明,社会现实在地方和地区层面可能比以前假设的更重要、更具影响力。
