Un ejemplo atípico en el proceso de producción documental moderna: el secretario del rey en el Consejo de Inquisición

Abstract

The main object of this article is to pay attention to the differences between the King’s Secretaries of the Spanish Administration on the XVI and XVII centuries. Related to the Inquisition’s Council, neither the nature of the King’s Secretaries nor their competencies are coincident with the homologies. This fact deeply affects not only on the way of how the documents are expedited, but is also influenced on the relevance and the duties of these Royal Secretaries.
