Description

Forbidden Prayer examines the Catholic Church's systematic effort during the sixteenth and early seventeenth century to control devotional literature in Italian vernacular. Published by Routledge as part of the Catholic Christendom, 1300-1700 series, this scholarly work traces how the Congregations of the Inquisition and the Index purged prayer texts of heterodox beliefs and superstitious elements whilst enforcing liturgical uniformity. The book reveals Rome's anxious response to Protestant infiltration in devotional treatises designed for mass consumption, exploring how ecclesiastical authorities shaped religious practice through censorship and textual control. Essential reading for historians of Renaissance Italy, religious history, and the intellectual foundations of the Counter-Reformation.
