摘要：On February 1781, the enlightened Government started taking steps in order to forbid the burials in churches and reintroduce the practice of burying in cemeteries located on outskirts of towns. The Consejo de Castilla asked for the 56 bishop's in the peninsular territory. Canaries and Balearic Islands opinion about this subject. Most of them agreed the sanitary policy, also based on ancient canonical laws. However a lot of them noticed the trouble of defraying the costs of these graveyards, and also the falling off in the parish priestess's incomes. The different points of view were not based on the bishop's personal ideology (the «Mayoral circle», jansenists...), in fact was the socioeconomic position of the dioceses (interior versus coastal towns) and his personal relation with the authorities (Toledo, Barcelona, Tarazona, Orense, Osma, Málaga...)
