Nor does one disputation, or even two a day prove sufficient, as for instance at dinner. They wrangle at breakfast; they wrangle after breakfast; they wrangle before supper and they wrangle after supper. At home they dispute, out of doors they dispute. They wrangle over their food, in the bath, in the sweating room, in the church, in the town, in the country, in public, in private. At all times they are wrangling.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHis mother, Blanquina, born 1473, was investigated by the Inquisition for the heresies of being a Marrano and a Judaizer in 1491. She admitted that as a girl of nine, her own mother had insisted following their conversion that their family continue to celebrate Yom Kippur.\u003cbr\u003eOn displaying that she was able and willing to recite the Nicene Creed, she was acquitted. She died of the plague in 1508, when Vives was 15 years old; in 1509 he left Spain never to return.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn around 1524, Vives' father, grandmother, and great-grandfather, as well as several other members of their wider family, were convicted and executed by the Inquisition for Crypto-Judaism, after his uncle was caught hosting a secret synagogue inside his house.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA few years later (c. 1528), allegedly to avoid providing doweries to Vives' sisters, local authorities brought up their mother's heresy investigation once again. Based on her own Yom Kippur testimony,  Blanquina Vives' corpse was re-exhumed and posthumously burned at the stake.\u003cbr\u003eEven though his own belief in Roman Catholicism was very genuine and sincere, Vives was living at the time in Thomas More's house in Chelsea and entered a severe depressive state.\u003cbr\u003e=====================================\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/center\u003e","brand":"Motka","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52560527589678,"sku":null,"price":642.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/8017\/0286\/files\/207499-001jpg.jpg?v=1788396561","url":"https:\/\/motka.store\/products\/1636-disciplinis-by-father-of-modern-psychology-juan-luis-vives-antique","provider":"Motka","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
