The Trial of Catarina de Orta
Methodological challenges in scrutinizing an inquisitorial trial
The trials conducted by the Portuguese Inquisition were directed at
scrutinizing the proper observance of the Catholic faith of those who were
unfortunate enough to be arrested, interrogated and sentenced. The unfolding of
the inquisitorial procedures and the concrete dynamics and tensions generated
from the interaction between the judge and the defendant resulted in the
production of a distinctive type of document — the trial. This document offers
partial and uneven views of a person’s life. They are fragmented views, limited
to the periods of their so-called religious offences. On the other hand, they
are also distorted by the fact that a defendant is being questioned on matters
regarding their orthodoxy, which conditions both the facts of one’s life that
are being questioned, as well as the answers being provided. Therefore, how is
it possible for a scholar to overcome the specificities of this type of source?
How can one go beyond what the source is narrating? This presentation will
discuss the challenges of editing an inquisitorial source elaborated by the Goa
Inquisition, and have it further rendered in English.
