A series of grievances on ecclesiastical matters submitted to Pope Urban VIII by the newly installed Bishop of Cordova, Domingo Pimentel Zúñiga, and his counselor, Juan Chamcero y Carrillo, during their embassy to Rome on behalf of the Spanish clergy in 1633. The Spanish complaints are countered with responses by Vatican secretary Monsignor Maraldi (presumably Marc' Antonio Maraldi), which are printed here and followed in turn by Spanish rebuttals. Much of the argument concerns proper church recognition for Spain's disproportionate role in defending and expanding the Roman Catholic faith. On page 70 the authors offer an impassioned account of a "New World conquered to the faith" by Spanish arms, learning, and preaching: "A cuyo titulo ninguna otra Corona puede tener igual razon, para ser ayuda de la Silla Apostolica con sus rentas; porque de la España es la que mas la sirue, y defiende à la Iglesia Vniversal con las armas, y con las letras, y predicacion. Vn nueuo mundo hà conquistado à la fe, siempre continua la promulgacion del Euangelio en nueuos Reynos, y Prouincias de las Indias Orientales, y Occidentales, consumiendo en esto sus tesoros, y vassallos."
