Text of the edict of his Imperial Majesty concerning books the
    circulation of which is prohibited under the censorship of the
    doctors of the Faculty of Theology in the University of Louvain;
    issued in the year 1546; printed at Louvain by Seruacs van Sassen,
    1546, with favour and privilege.

    The monograph, which as printed in the edition of Mr. Huntington,
    comprises about ninety pages, is made up as follows: I. The text
    of the privilege. II. The full text of the edict (“Mandamêt”).
    The edict closes with a list of the books the circulation of
    which is permitted, a list which includes: the “Syntaxis” of
    Erasmus, “Grammaticæ” by several authors, “Fabulae Æsopæ,” the
    “Dialectica” and “Rhetorica” of Agricola, editions of the “Letters”
    of Cicero, of the works of Virgil, Lucan, Horace, Cæsar, Livy,
    the “Orations” of Cicero, the writings of Boëthius, the works of
    Gaza and of Laskaris, the works of Lucian, of Isocrates, Xenophon,
    Horace, Aristophanes, Hesiod, and Plutarch, and the “Orations” of
    Demosthenes. III. An address to readers by the Theological Faculty
    of Louvain. IV. A list of the forbidden books, comprising: the
    editions of the Bible issued by Robert Estienne of Paris, Goinus
    of Antwerp, Savoris of Lyons, Boule of Lyons, Cæsar of Antwerp,
    Froben of Basel (this last was probably the edition with the notes
    of Erasmus), Stelsium of Antwerp, Gabianus of Lyons, Regnault of
    Paris, Gryphium of Paris, Paganus of Lyons, Münster of Basel, the
    Greek editions of the Bible by Argentoratus. Dutch editions as
    follows: Liesuelt of Antwerp, Vorsterma of Antwerp, Peeters of
    Antwerp. Flemish editions as follows: by Martinus of Antwerp, by
    Antoninus of Antwerp. Editions of the New Testament as follows:
    by Robert Estienne of Paris, by Maranus of Antwerp, by Batman
    of Antwerp. Editions of the New Testament in Dutch as follows:
    by Gymmick of Cologne, by Cornelius of Antwerp, by Lieseult, by
    Godifredus of Antwerp, by Keyser of Antwerp, by Petrus of Leyden,
    by Van Loe of Antwerp, by Crom of Antwerp, by Mirdmans of Antwerp,
    by Coch of Antwerp, by Claes of Antwerp, by Hage of Antwerp; the
    New Testament in Flemish by De Monte of Antwerp, by Petrus of
    Antwerp, and by Richart of Antwerp. This list includes in all
    forty-nine editions of the Bible and of the New Testament. The
    schedule of Bibles is followed by a list of works, also prohibited,
    aggregating one hundred and fifty-eight titles. In addition to the
    books prohibited by name, this division of the _Index_ includes
    a prohibition of “all the writings” of the following authors:
    Luther, Wiclif, Huss, Massilius of Padua, Oecolampadius, Zwingli,
    Melanchthon, Lambertus, Pomerinus, Brunselsius, Justus Jonas. I add
    a selection of the more noteworthy titles from the list of separate
    works:
