History

The censorship of the Church of Rome and its influence upon the production and distribution of literature, volume 2 (of 2)

Name: The censorship of the Church of Rome and its influence upon the production and distribution of literature, volume 2 (of 2)
Author: Putnam, George Haven

Putnam, George Haven

Freedom of the press; Liberty of conscience; Prohibited books

This Index contains a condemnation of the “Defence of the Ancient
Faith,” by the Rev. Peter Gandolphy, published in 1816, a work which
had secured the approbation of the master of the sacred palace and of
Damiani, master of theology. The appendix includes also Lady Morgan’s
volume on Italy, and a special decree in regard to the New Testament.

A reprint of the Index of 1819 was issued in Brussels in 1828.

_1835. Rome. Gregory XVI. Prohibitorius._

_1841. Rome. Gregory XVI. Prohibitorius._ Reprints of these
two Indexes were issued (with papal privileges) in Mechlin, Monza,
Monreale, and Naples.

_1855. Rome. Pius IX. Prohibitorius._

_1871. Rome. Pius IX._ Reissue, with an appendix, of the Index of
1841.

_1877. Rome. Pius IX. Prohibitorius._ Each of these Indexes
contains an introduction by Hieronymus Pius Saccheri. The lists
of titles in both present a number of errors, bibliographical and
typographical, and are in fact much less correct than those of Benedict.

_1881. Rome. Leo XIII. Index Prohibitorius_, reprinted with
appendix in 1884.

_1896. Rome. Leo XIII. Index Prohibitorius._ A reprint of the
Index of 1884, with appendix carrying the titles to 1895.

_1899–1900. Rome. Leo XIII. Index Prohibitorius_: for
specification of contents, see Chapter XI.




                               CHAPTER V

        METHODS OF PROHIBITION AND THE CONTINUATION OF CLASS I

    1. Papal Prohibitions in the 17th and 18th Centuries.
    2. Prohibitions by Bishops.
    3. Publication of the Book Prohibitions.
    4. The Continuation of Class I.
    5. Catalogues of Books Approved.


=1. Papal Prohibitions in the 17th and 18th Centuries.=--As in
previous periods, there are in the 17th century numerous examples
of papal prohibitions, through constitutions, bulls, or briefs, of
individual books which were held to be sufficiently important to call
for such special action. In 1602, Clement VIII condemns the works
of Carolus Molinaeus; in 1642, Urban VIII condemns the writings of
Jansen together with a number of treatises by the followers of Jansen;
in 1661, Alexander VII condemns a French version of the missal. The
formula generally utilised for these individual prohibitions was as
follows:
