Abstract


The countless murders of Old Christians at the tip of morisco scimitars during the rising of the Alpujarras caused a curious "mentality of martyrdom" among the survivors, unparalleled in the old Kingdom of Granada. The "martyrdoms" of Christmas Eve 1568, immediately exploited by the ecclesiatical hierarchy of Granada (led by the archbishop, Pedro de Castro) in order to establish a complex programme of Counter-Reformation propaganda, created a peculiar religious mentality that would be expressed throughout the resettlement process and in the shaping of a new Old Christian society that affected not only man in the Early Modern age but also, indelibly, the attitudes and behavior of the present.
