Résumé
In its attempt to provide the Catholic Church with institutions that were common to all the countries in its orbit, the Council of Trent regulated the sacramental practices. These included baptism and the role of spiritual godparents. This paper analyzes the functioning of this institution in Castile at the end of the 16th century and the beginning of the 17th. Simultaneously it tries to find out if the Morisco minority showed a different behaviour than the old Christians one .In order to do this, the study is based on the sacramental books of seven parishes of Campo de Calatrava. That region is one of the most important areas in which Granadine moriscos were settled after the Revolt of the Alpujarras. Its parish archives provide us with important and rich information about the former Muslims’ religious and social behaviour.
