La Inquisición española siempre ha sido un tema atractivo y polémico como pocos en la Historia de España. La bibliografía existente sobre ella es ingente, al igual que variados son los enfoques con los que investigadores y curiosos se han acercado a ella. Son muchos los temas sobre su historia abordados por los historiadores, tendiendo en ciertos casos a la repetición y la sobresaturación en algunos de ellos. Las víctimas, la tortura, el procedimiento..., son conceptos recurrentes, mientras que otros, también fundamentales para el conocimiento de la institución, han permanecido ignorados sin que se sepa muy bien la razón. Varias de estas cuestiones tienen que ver con el funcionamiento interno de los tribunales de distrito y, más en concreto, con su gestión administrativa. La presente tesis, que se adscribe a una nueva corriente de investigación, la Diplomática inquisitorial, tratará de paliar, en la medida de lo posible, ese vacío historiográfico. El primer objetivo será, por tanto, dar a conocer los principales documentos escriturados en los tribunales de distrito del Santo Oficio durante el desarrollo de sus funciones, lo que se traducirá en un amplio espectro temático. El siguiente gran objetivo no será otro que el de tratar de profundizar en la figura de los secretarios de estos tribunales. Para ello se expondrán sus categorías, funciones, formas de acceder al oficio, remuneraciones, etc. Se intentará trazar un perfil lo más completo posible de ellos en tanto que responsables de buena parte de la gestión administrativa del tribunal.

There is a huge amount of bibliography about this issue and a lot of different approaches to it. Historians has been studying the institution for more than a century, but sometimes their writings are inclined to be repetitive and monotonous. Always treating the same issues, such as number of victims, torture, procedure... On the contrary, another issues, that are essential to complete our knowledge of this institution, are still forgotten. Some of these matters are related to the internal operations and, more strictly, to the administrative processes of the inquisitorial local courts.

The next aim will be to take a close look to the secretaries working in this kind of local courts. I will focus on status, roles, recruitment, remunerations, etc. Having investigated about documentation and secretaries, it was necessary to extend this research to know more about the archives of the Holy Office, so this time I will focus on history, objectives, organization...
