The Holy Coat of Treves and the New German-Catholic Church (1845)

""The Holy Coat of Treves and the New German-Catholic Church"" is a historical book written by John Ronge in 1845. The book discusses the controversy surrounding the Holy Coat of Treves, a relic believed to be the tunic worn by Jesus Christ during his crucifixion. Ronge argues that the veneration of relics is a superstitious practice and that the Catholic Church's insistence on their authenticity is misguided. He also advocates for a new German-Catholic Church that would be free from the authority of Rome and more in line with the values of the German people. The book is considered a significant work in the history of German Catholicism and religious reform movements.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
