Resumen
TROPE, Hélène. The Inquisition face to madness in Spain in the XVI and XVII centuries (& II): Slanderer exclusion. Rev. Asoc. Esp. Neuropsiq. [online]. 2010, vol.30, n.3, pp.465-486. ISSN 2340-2733.
This article's second part puts forward the fate of those mad defendants inquisitors considered likely to spread their prophecies and slanders. Essentially, the article analyses certain cases where inquisitors used madness as a power means to exclude, isolate and get rid of them, once and for all. Besides, cases where particularly dangerous slanderers were deemed to be possessed by the devil and finally punished are also studied. Despite being considered mad, slanderers' madness was not believed to be a reason to exempt them from their blame.
