Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book uncovers the history of religious reform in Bologna through documents describing secret meetings, inquisitorial trials, and letters from Italian cardinals and inquisitors. With the arrival of the Protestant Reformation, even a city as thoroughly Catholic as Bologna was affected by new religious ideas which infiltrated the area despite papal vigilance. The papal authorities responded with an active and aggressive counter-reformation, determined to suppress the spread of Lutheranism at all costs. The primary means for carrying out this repression was the office of the Inquisition, and this volume draws on its records to shed light on the vast scope of the Catholic Church's efforts to stamp out Protestantism in Italy. Many of the cases recorded in the book center on little-known individuals whose struggles against the Inquisition give voice to the lesser-known stories of religious persecution.
