Vigil, Francisco P. G. de, _Defensa de la Autoridad de los Gobiernos y de los Obispos contra las Pretenciones de la Curia Romana_, printed (in Lima) in 1848, prohibited in 1851. The author was a priest and at the time of his death Curator of the National Museum at Lima. The work, issued in six volumes, octavo, gives consideration to almost every detail of the organisation of the Church. _Manual de Derecho Publico Eclesiastico, and Dialogos sobre la Existencia de Dios y la Vida futura, á la Juventud Americana_, printed (in Lima) in 1863, prohibited in 1864. Vigil died in June, 1875. He had declined to submit himself to the condemnation of the Church and he was therefore refused the last sacraments. The Congress of Peru directed, however, that he should have the honour of a public funeral. La Riva, J. F., _El Espiritu del Evangelio comparado con las Practicas de la Iglesia Catolica_, printed (in Lima) in 1867, prohibited in the same year. Fotvárad, Carlos H. de, _O Casamento civil_, etc., printed (in Rio Janeiro) in 1858, prohibited in 1859. This monograph was written in reply to a treatise, published in Rio in 1858, by Canon de Campo. The author undertook to maintain the exclusive authority of the Church (as against the State) in all matters connected with marriage. _Las Biblias falsificadas_, etc., printed (in Rio) in 1867, prohibited in 1869. This was a further criticism of the utterances of de Campo. D’Aranjo, M. R. (Bishop of Rio), _Elementos dé direito Eclesiastico publico_, etc., printed (in Rio) in 1857, prohibited in 1869. _Compendio de Theologia Moral_, printed (in Oporto) in 1858, prohibited in 1869. Monte, Carmelo J. de, _O Brazil Mystificado na Questao religiosa_, printed in 1875, prohibited in 1876.

Portugal, Bishop of Michoachon, printed (in Mexico) in 1835, prohibited in 1840; and by two treatises of N. Pizarro, _Catecismo Politico Constitutional_, and _Catecismo de Moral_, printed in 1867, prohibited in 1869. =45. Periodicals, 1832–1900.=--In 1832, the Congregation of the Index issued a declaration stating that the regulations of the Index of Trent (renewed in the succeeding Indexes) concerning ecclesiastical censorship, covered material printed in journals as well as that published in books. After the year 1848, however, the attempt to enforce in Rome ecclesiastical censorship, over the contents of journals as given up was impracticable. It was pointed out that no advantage could be secured in placing upon the Index journal issues of a back date, the reading of which had already been completed.
