Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book details the papal reign of Pius V, focusing on his struggle to balance the powers of the church with those of temporal rulers, particularly that of Spain's King Philip II. The author analyzes the depth of Pius's commitment to the church's independence, both through letters and implemented policies. Despite Pius's efforts to ensure full papal authority over the church and its practices, such as the enforcement of the decrees of the Council of Trent, Pius was met with resistance from the King of Spain, who clung fiercely to his claims of authority over the church within his own territories. The book details the ongoing disputes and negotiations between the pope and the king, showcasing the wider political and religious tensions of the era. Through the lens of Pius V's papacy, the author provides a nuanced view of the relationship between the church and the state during the 16th century.
