Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive catalog of books banned by the Roman Catholic Church. This list, known as the Index of Prohibited Books, began as a method to combat the dissemination of ideas contradictory to Catholic teachings during the Protestant Reformation. Over the centuries, the Index evolved to include not only Protestant literature but also works on a wide range of topics deemed heretical or morally offensive by the Church. The author presents a detailed history of the Index, from its inception in the 16th century to its eventual decline in the 20th century. Along the way, the book explores the motivations and methods behind the Church's censorship practices, including the role of the Inquisition and the influence of papal authority. Ultimately, this book shines a light on the complex interplay between religion, culture, and the production of knowledge in early modern Europe. It is a valuable resource for scholars of religious history, intellectual history, and the history of the book. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
