“Historia de Germanorum Origine.” “Commentaria Pythagoræ poema.” “Erasmi Scholia in Evangelium Secundum.” “Matthaeum, Marcum, et Lucam.” “Erasmi Postilla in Evangelia dominicalia, per totum annum.” “Epitome Chronicorum Latine et Teutonice.” “Agrippa de Vanitate Scientiarum.” “Chronicon regum et regnorum, authore Paulo Constatino Phrygione.” “In Joannis Catacuzeni contra fide Mahumeticam librû præfatio, Gualteri Tigurini.” “Geographia Universalis, Basileæ, per Petri.” “Joachimi Camerarii Commentarii in Tusculano quæstionis Ciceronis.” “Paidalogia Petri Mosellani.” “Judocus Uvelichius de pronunciatione Rhetorica.” “La Louainge du Mariage et recueil des Histoires de bonnes (vertueuses) et illustres femmes, composée par Maistre Pierre de Lesuanderie.” The greater portion of the list is devoted to the controversial works of Protestant writers, works which we should expect to find in such an Index. It is, however, somewhat surprising that the Divines of Louvain should have thought it necessary to place their condemnation also upon such apparently innocent productions as treatises on the origin of the “Germans” or on “Universal Geography,” or on the “Tusculan Disputations” of Cicero, and it is difficult to understand the ground on which these should have been considered as likely to prove dangerous to the true Faith. In the spelling of the titles, I have followed Mr. Huntington’s text, which has, I understand, been reproduced from the original by a photographic process. The lists in the several _Indexes_ repeat titles very largely, and in nearly all, after the writings of an author have been condemned _in toto_ under some such head as “opera omnia,” a number of them are afterwards condemned under their separate titles. II. THE LOUVAIN INDEX OF 1550. This comprises the following material: A catalogue of the books condemned according to the judgment of the University of Louvain, and under an edict of “his Cæsarean Majesty” (this list is in part a repetition of that of 1546); a Bull of the Holy Father, Pope Julius III., against all those possessing or reading copies of the forbidden or condemned books; a further catalogue of books previously condemned under the authority of the most illustrious and reverend Lord Don Ferdinand of Valdes, Archbishop of Seville, Inquisitor-General of the Council of the holy general Inquisition; together with the edict of the apostolic inquisitors in the city of Toledo, under whose decree the titles of several later books are added to the original list. The _Index_ was printed in Toledo in the office of Joh. de Ajala, in 1551. The title-page closes with a clause inflicting excommunication and a fine of 50,000 maravedas upon those who may sell or possess copies of the works condemned.
