Perdonarás a tus enemigos, pero no a los enemigos de tu Dios, sobre El Inquisidor de Francisco Ayala

This work proposes an analysis about the story El Inquisidor, authored by Francisco Ayala, published in the book Los Usurpadores (1949), this story is set at the time of the Spanish Inquisition and represents the reality of an old rabbi who, once become a new Christian and after having studied in Rome to be a bishop, he has the task of judging "false new Christians" who, hiding over their false faith, they continue to practice Judaism. The objective is to stand out the religious fanaticism and estrangement that occurs between the protagonist in front of his old Jewish friends and family. That is, it will seek to reflect on how religion divides the characters (placing some in more privileged categories than others) and promotes violent practices such as torture, in the name of a god, in this case, the Christian god versus the Jew and to the Mohammedan. Moreover, we will reflect about the way in which this story is a metaphor for the Spanish Civil War and the Franco dictatorship, since it brings with it the fratricidal drama as the axis of the narrative.
