Regarding the city of Granada the Anales written by Henríquez de Jorquera show many cases of violence. His enumeration of violent events is not exhaustive. The author prefers to select those with striking characteristics. But he also keeps silent on certain crimes. There are cases with notable actors and others with extremely cruel actions. He also highlights the events in which a woman has been the victim or the author of violence, especially in murder cases. His brief narrative contains personal observations. Some cases of Inquisition trials involving women are also included in this study
