Abstract
The repression against the sins of the language is a subject of intense attention from the law and courts of justice in Europe from the low Middle Ages. In Spain there were enacted severe civil and religious laws against the crime of blasphemy by an unequal application. In Catalonia the secular and ecclesiastical judges participated in the repressive politics favoring deterrence springs of moral coercion wit little recourse to physical coercion.

Summary
Do fueran proferidas en determinadas situaciones que justificasen la gravedad de la acusación. En los fondos de Tribunales Reales del Archivo General de Navarra hay una docena de procedimientos judiciales por el mismo delito.[40] Estas informaciones dan fundamento a la explicación de que en España nunca se persiguió a los blasfemos por motivos políticos, el Estado jamás consideró a los blasfemadores elementos peligrosos amenazadores de la cohesión social y religiosa de la nación,[41] cosa que si ocurría en Francia enfrentada a las cruentas guerras de religión, y también en Inglaterra, tras el cisma de Enrique VIII con la Iglesia de Roma.
