Abstract:
Discusses patterns of behavior of the prominent Converso families of Juan Falcon (from Ciudad Real), Arias Dávila, and Nasi Mendes facing the persecution of the Inquisition during the 16th century. These families chose, respectively, to maintain the Jewish faith in secret, to assimilate into the Christian world, and to go into exile in order to preserve their Jewish identity.
