Description

Explore the complex history of one of Spain's most influential governing pairs with Ferdinand and Isabella (Profiles In Power) from Routledge. Unlike many historical accounts that focus on a single ruler, this book examines the unique dynamics of a marriage lasting over thirty-five years and how a couple shared the practice of monarchical power. Readers will follow the journey of Ferdinand and Isabella as they struggle to establish their regime and implement an elaborate reform programme across both Church and State. The text details their efforts to transform the political and religious landscape of the fifteenth century. This historical study covers the conquest of the kingdom of Granada through what was considered a total war by the standards of the time. It also examines the intense religious shifts of the era, including the use of the Inquisition and the Church to convert Spanish Jews and Muslims to Christianity. This book provides a deep look into the gender issues and power structures that shaped a nation.
