Papal Indulgences, 2 Lectures in Examination of a Work On ‘indulgences’ [By J.B. Bouvier]

This rigorous examination of the practice of papal indulgences in the Catholic Church provides readers with a detailed analysis of the historical and theological issues at stake. Bouvier's critique of the abuses of indulgences in the late Middle Ages laid the groundwork for the Protestant Reformation, and remains an important text for scholars of church history. This new edition includes a critical introduction by a leading theologian.
