So says the PhD, the Passion Week will star penitential confraternities, which were encouraged and regulated after the Council, being under the authority of the bishop.
On the other hand, the feast and procession of Corpus "brought together key sections of the city, which were pushing that day to have more relevance and visibility."
The study covers the period from the year 1583, "with the arrival of the first clearly Counter prelate, as Manrique de Lara was, until 1705, with the inauguration of Bishop Belluga whose episcopate can be considered a period of new counter. "
The dissertation was directed by Professor of Art History at the University of Murcia Jesus Rivas Carmona.
