For Father Sulpicio, Cosimo’s possible return to Granada would mean that Cosimo would be able to continue spreading Enlightenment ideas throughout the Spanish nobility that threaten his own power and control, something he can’t have happen. Don Frederico’s invitation, therefore, indicates that there’s some willingness to change and move forward in Spain. Despite this, it’s telling that El Conde is the only one who’s interested in keeping up with their newfound philosophy after returning home, as it suggests that he’s the only one who has truly internalized Cosimo’s Enlightenment messages.
