Summary:
Cuando los hombres tienen que morir por sus ideas, algo nuevo est̀ a punto de comenzar. Con una combinaci̤n de intriga y rigor hist̤rico, Palabras de fuego traslada a los lectores a un momento hist̤rico, en el que la palabra impresa pod̕a ser el arma m̀s transformadora. Ąo 1557. Fray Cipriano de Valera es un monje del Monasterio de los Jer̤nimos de San Isidoro del Campo, que se encuentra fascinado por las nuevas ideas que est̀ introduciendo su amigo Casiodoro de Reina. Sevilla parece revolucionada por las riquezas que llegan de Am̌rica y las ideas de Alemania. La imprenta ha conseguido que las ensęanzas de Lutero y Erasmo se extiendan por Europa, pero la Inquisici̤n acecha. Los monjes son advertidos de una inminente redada y escapan hacia C̀diz para buscar un barco que los lleve hasta Italia. La Inquisici̤n env̕a tras los monjes ±herejes a dos monjes que intentar̀n traerlos de nuevo a Espąa para que sean juzgados y quemados en la hoguera. Mientras que Cirpriano de Valera y sus compąeros huyen por Europa, Casiodoro de Reina comienza a gestar la idea de traducir la Biblia al castellano, pero los esp̕as de Felipe II est̀n en todas partes y tienen mucho inteřs en que el libro no se publique.
When men have to die for their ideas, something new is about to begin. With a combination of intrigue and historical rigor, Words of Fire takes readers to a historical moment, in which the printed word could be the most transformative weapon. Year 1557. Fray Cipriano de Valera is a monk from the Jer̤nimos Monastery of San Isidoro del Campo, who is fascinated by the new ideas that his friend Casiodoro de Reina is introducing. Seville seems revolutionized by the riches that come from America and the ideas from Germany. The printing press has made the teachings of Luther and Erasmus spread throughout Europe, but the Inquisition lurks. The monks are warned of an imminent raid and escape to C̀diz to find a ship to take them to Italy. The Inquisition sends two monks after the "heretical" monks who will try to bring them back to Spain to be tried and burned at the stake. While Cirpriano de Valera and his companions flee through Europe, Casiodoro de Reina begins to develop the idea of ​​translating the Bible into Spanish, but the spies of Felipe II are everywhere and they are very interested in the book not being published .
