1626 Prohibited Book Index & Catholic Council Trent Index Librorum Prohibitorum

1626 Prohibited Book Index & Catholic Council Trent Index Librorum Prohibitorum

The Council of Trent has long been one of the most important and foundational ecumenical councils of the Catholic Church and has been described by scholars as the epitome of the Counter-Reformation. It was prompted out of issues concerning heresy committed by Protestant doctrine based on justification, salvation, and most famously the Biblical canon.

Jean Gallemart’s account of the council provides details concerning liturgical and theological discussions, the reformation, the sacraments, the progression of sessions, and notable orations given. It is also paired with the Prohibited Books Index

The ‘Index Librorum Prohibitorum’ or Prohibited Books Index is the complete list of books that have been banned for heresy or morality by the Catholic Church. First established in 1557, this book was recognized as an official list and no Catholics were permitted to possess or even read books from this list.
