Abstract: The purpose of this project is to edit the first manuscripts of the first Spanish Dominicans who officially responded to the ‘Concordia’ by Luis de Molina: they are a group of writings composed for the Inquisition from 1594 to 1597. The main work consists of identifying the sources of these manuscripts and writing a contextualizing introduction. In addition, a translation of some Domingo de Báñez’s texts, with the identification of their sources and a introduction is considered.
