1538. Carta de Juan Luis Argente para su hermano Francisco Juan Argente, fraile.

Author(s) Juan Luis Argente      
Addressee(s) Francisco Juan Argente      
In English

Letter from Juan Luis Argente to his brother Francisco Juan Argente, a monk.

The author advises his brother Francisco Juan Argente to reflect on everything that is happening to him, and recommends him to return to his monastery, or, if he still wants to continue with his studies, to go to Paris or to Italy.

The defendant of this process was Francisco Juan Argente, Bernardine monk of the Monastery of Valldigna (Valencia). He was accused of the crime of heretical propositions, but his process was eventually suspended. The letter he was sent to the prison of the Holy Office in Cuenca from his brother Juan Luis Argente was joined to the proceedings as a proof that, if released on probation, the prisoner would have probably run away from the realms of Castile.

 If there is no translation for the letter itself, you may copy the text (while using the view 'Standardization') and paste it to an automatic translator of your choice.
