Llorente, who had been the Inquisition's general secretary in 1789, became a Bonapartist and published this critical history in 1817 during his French exile, based on his privileged access to the archives of the tribunal. This is his magnum opus, being the first fully documented account of the Inquisition since it's establishment in 1478. /nPossibly as a result of Llorente's criticisms, the Inquisition was once again temporarily abolished during the three-year Liberal interlude known as the Trienio liberal. In 1826 the last person was condemned and executed by the Inquisition. Finally, on 15 July 1834, the Spanish Inquisition was definitively abolished by a Royal Decree signed by regent Maria Christina of the Two Sicilies, Ferdinand VII's liberal widow.
