摘要：The conversos can be regarded as a group which adopted even a sort of a communitary behavior, although within it one could find very different social and cultural situations. Therefore, their history must be reconstructed from the study of individuals and families which trajectories intertwined in many ways, and who lived very diverse experiences and personal developments. García de Gibraleón (†1534) represents an exemplary case of survival and adaptation. Son of Pedro Fernández Benadeva, one of the first persons convicted and executed by the sevillian Inquisition in 1481, and whose mother trace is lost in exile, he will never be back to his native city. However, during the first third of the XVIth century, he used his position in the Roman Curia to develop the role of the essential intermediary, the genuine broker of the sinecure market and ecclesiastical benefits. Some spanish churches, like Seville, the city from where his brothers had to abandon their prebends to safe their lives, used (and paid for) his services, while he gathered a big estate, which really symbolised the tragic irony of that time of angst.
