Description

Explore the complex history of religious control in Renaissance Italy with Forbidden Prayer. Published by Routledge, this scholarly work examines the efforts of the Congregations of the Inquisition and the Index during the sixteenth and early seventeenth century. The book tracks how authorities attempted to purge Italian vernacular devotional texts of heterodox beliefs and superstitious elements. Readers will learn about the Roman Church's efforts to prevent the infiltration of Protestant ideas within mass-market prayer treatises. The text follows the transition of these censorship efforts, moving from an anxious response to Protestant influence toward the imposition of rigid uniformity in liturgical and devotional practices. This study provides a detailed look at how religious authority shaped the spiritual lives of the people through the regulation of written prayer and devotional literature.
