	Fray Francisco Jiménez de Cisneros (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Cisneros, que vivió muy de cerca los sucesos, relata en sus cartas esta experiencia misional que él creía comparable a la de la primitiva Iglesia.
		Además de asceta, reformador y político, Jiménez de Cisneros fue un genial creador y mecenas de instituciones y obras culturales y científicas, de corte renacentista.
		De ejemplo podrían servirnos sus numerosas obras benéficas, tan desconocidas; 12 iglesias, ocho monasterios, cuatro hospitales y un elevado número de obras de caridad y beneficencia, estrellas menores en ese luminoso firmamento en que brillan las grandes obras de Cisneros.

		The rebellion was violently put down by a seasoned army under the direction of Don Juan de Austria in 1570, and in its aftermath the Moriscos of Granada —; not just the surviving combatants, but the whole population — were forced to leave Granada and relocate to other regions of Spain, principally Castile.
		King Felipe’s government was run by the ambitious Francisco Gómez de Sandoval y Rojas, Duke of Lerma (1533-1625), who personally saw to it that the policies of the Spanish state reflected his will during his tenure as the king's right hand.
		But, as Francisco Márquez Villanueva has argued, the Morisco expulsion was but part of a series of policies that allowed a powerful minority to chart a future for Spain that would transform it into the nation they desired it to be: homogeneous, resolutely Catholic, and secure from unwanted outside influences (1991).
