after 1696, the year is specified, and occasionally the Bull itself. In the cases in which the entry includes the place and date of publication, the prohibition applies not to the work as a whole, but only to the particular edition cited; but in the absence of such specification, the condemnation applies to the work in all its issues. The addition of the term _donec corrigatur_ or _donec expurgetur_ indicates that the responsibility for the corrections rests with the Index Congregation. Reusch points out that the lists in this Index, while presenting corrections of many of the errors contained in the Tridentine and Clementine, are themselves by no means either correct or complete. A number of the names of the Clementine lists have been omitted simply through the oversight of the transcribers. The _Decreta Generalia_ have the sub-heading: “Prohibited books which have been written or published by heretics or which have to do with heresies or with creeds of unbelievers.” This part of the work contains the following subdivisions: 1. The prayers and offices of the heretics. 2. _Apologia_ in which their errors are defended or favoured. 3. Editions of the Scriptures edited or printed by heretics, or containing notes, _scholia_, or commentaries prepared by unbelieving writers. 4. Any portions of the Scriptures put into verse by heretics. 5. Heretical editions of calendars, martyrologies, and necrologies. 6. Poems, narrations, addresses, pictures, or compositions of any kind in which heretical beliefs are commended. 7. Catechisms, A.B.C. primers, commentaries on the Apostles’ Creed or the Ten Commandments, instructions in doctrine. 8. Colloquies, conferences, disputations, synodical proceedings concerning the creeds, edited or printed by heretics. 9. Articles of Faith, confessions, or creeds of heretics. 10. Dictionaries, vocabularies, glossaries, and thesauri compiled or printed by heretics (as examples are specified the works of the class bearing the names of the Stephani, Scapula, and Hoffman); these books may, however, be permitted when they have been purged of heretical passages or of entries that could be utilised against the Catholic faith. 11. Works presenting or defending the creeds of any of the Mohammedan sects. Certain of the above specifications of classes are entered in the alphabeted lists under the headings: _Apologia_, _Catechesis_, _Colloquium_, _Confessio_, _Disputatio_, etc. The titles of individual works belonging to such classes, titles which had found place in many preceding Indexes, are then omitted. In some instances a specific work is entered as an example or type of the class to be prohibited, as _Apologia Confessionis Augustinae_, with the _addendum_, _et caeterae omnes haereticorum apologiae; vide Decreta_.
