Marranos on the Moradas: Secret Jews and Penitentes in the Southwestern United States from 1590 to 1890 - Judaism and Jewish Life
Norman Simms
The Penitentes are a lay Catholic brotherhood that practised bloody rites of self-flagellation and crucifixion. Marranos claim to be anousim. This book redefines the terms and creates contexts in which these groups are viewed with respect and sympathy without idealising or slandering them.
