Meanings
-
(uncountable) The quality of being maculate, stained or blemished.
It is no coincidence that the honor code and limpieza statutes shared a rhetoric of maculacy and immaculacy (the former associated with adultery and semitic blood, the latter with marital chastity and cristiano viejo origins), or that both applied this rhetoric to a narrative of blood.
