Fray Luis de León

Note 57 — II III

Reading edition

Opinions differ as to whether Luis de Leon was imprisoned in the original Inquisitionary cells on the site of which 18 and 20 calle del Obispo now stand. Blanco García thought that this was not the case (op. cit., p. 129 n). The recurrence of such phrases as mandó subir de su cárcel (Documentos inéditos, vol. XI, pp. 22, 36, 129, 196) perhaps indicates that Luis de Leon's cell was underground.
