Another issue that the sources of drinking in the Black Legend is the story of Don Carlos, Prince Charles of Habsburg, son of Philip II of Spain. As seen above, William of Orange and Antonio Perez that would have paved the way Vichard Cesar de Saint-Real in 1672 with his Dom Carlos. Saint-Real says that his story is "historico " and based on the historians who have treated the time, but Peters believes that the author meant this rather 'in the past, historically fascinating and consistent with the relato . The story contains elements that characterize later: Don Carlos is promised to Elizabeth of Valois, Philip II, but by politics marries her opposes Don Carlos / enema with the Inquisition and is in favor of the independence of the Netherlands , Don Carlos was imprisoned by Philip II because of jealousy, for treason (to support the independence of Flanders) and by the intrigues of the Inquisition, Don Carlos is finally killed.
The book was translated to English in 1674 and 1676 appear in Don Carlos, Prince of Spain (Don Carlos, Prince of Spain) by Thomas Otway, which blend in with theme of Don Carlos Othelo elements of Shakespeare and Racine Mithridate . Several authors have written the story more emphasis on the character of Philip II, the largest Spinoza Inquisitor in Don Carlos and the Marquis of Posa, a friend of Don Carlos and in later works shall become the spokesman for the Liberals.
However the work that would gain more fame and become part of history in European culture will be the Don Karlos, Infant von Spanien of Friedrich Schiller. Published in 1787 and based in the history of Saint-Real and History of Philip II by Robert Watson, the book focuses more on Don Carlos and the relationship with his father, portrayed as a monster with no heart, that the role of Inquisition. However, the Inquisition and in particular the Cardinal Grand Inquisitor unemployed go wrong: your shadow is particularly strong throughout the work, even though his appearance is brief, and ultimately will be the instrument of the death of Don Carlos.
The impetus given by Schiller to the topic will be published several works and some works with the same story. The most famous opera undoubtedly be the Don Carlos by Giuseppe Verdi. The French librettists Joseph Mery and Camille du Locle used Schiller's work for the texts, but the librettos for Verdi reworked to get closer to the original Don Karlos and increase its political aspects. forbes Verdi's greatest contribution to the legend of the Inquisition will be the scene of the car of faith, a great show that shows the horrors of Spain absolutist. It will also give more prominence to the Grand Inquisitor, symbolizing opposition and the Church of absolutism and republicanism to liberalism.
