Description

Explore the complex relationship between religious devotion and secular science in Counter-Reformation Rome. This scholarly work examines the hagiographical writings of Antonio Gallonio (1556-1605), an Oratorian priest dedicated to the lives of saints. While Gallonio's central theme focused on the renunciation of the world through humility and endurance, his method involved a unique engagement with the expertise of lay professionals. This book investigates how Gallonio utilized the knowledge of jurists, physicians, and engineers to reach a broader audience. By addressing these secular disciplines, he sought to demonstrate how saints navigated physical suffering, disease, and torture. This study provides a deep look into Gallonio's published and unpublished works, offering insight into how religious narratives interacted with the scientific and legal minds of the Renaissance period.
