_4._ _1580._ _Parma._--_Index Librorum Prohibitorum. Apud Erasmum Viotum. Parmae. 1580. Concessu Superiorum._ This Index was prepared as a supplement to, or continuation of, the Index of Trent, and in accordance with the instructions given in the Tridentine preface to bishops and to local inquisitors. The Indexes of Liège, 1569, Antwerp, 1570, Lisbon, 1581, and Munich, 1582, were also compiled as a result of these instructions of 1564; but this of Parma is the only Italian example. The lists, which contain 460 names, were undoubtedly utilised by Sixtus V, in the preparation of his Index, as a number of the errors in the names have been repeated verbatim. The Parma lists are full of blunders, and the names of the authors and titles of the books are curiously mixed together. The compilers have had access to certain English material and have thought it important, for instance, to include a condemnation of the Bible of Miles Coverdale, of which but few copies could have been within reach of readers in Italy. The entry reads: _Millo Couerdallus pro falsa translatione noui testamenti et prologis in quaedam loca ejusdem_. The works of some of the Fathers are included, which works it was probably intended to condemn in some heretical edition, but the edition not being specified, the condemnation covers the teachings of the Father himself, as in the entry _Tertuliani Opera_. At the close of the alphabetical schedule, is given a list (without alphabetical arrangement) of twenty-one heretics. The list fails to present certain of the assured heresiarchs, such as Luther, Calvin, and Zwingli, but does include Melanchthon, Erasmus, and the Paris publishers, Henri and Robert Estienne. This Index of Parma had not been included in any of the earlier records of censorship in Italy, and had even escaped the attention of the indefatigable Vergerio. Its existence was unknown to Reusch in 1884, at the time of the completion of his great history, and it is, as far as I have been able to ascertain, not mentioned by any of the other writers on censorship. A single copy was discovered in 1887 by Ludwig Rosenthal, and, at his instance, a reprint, edited by Reusch, was issued in Bonn in 1889. _5._ _1581._ _Lisbon._ _Inquisitor-General._ In 1568, Cardinal Henry, at that time Regent, published in Portugal the decree of the Council of Trent. The Cardinal became King in 1578, and in that year he had published a Portuguese version of the Trent Rules, together with a newly compiled list of books prohibited for Portugal. According to Reusch, no copies of this Portuguese Index are known. In 1581, Portugal came under the rule of Philip II, and in that year, the Inquisitor-General, Dalmeida, published a reprint of the Index of Trent, together with a supplementary list of prohibited books. The title reads:
