The Council of Trent, Plainly Discovered Not to Have Been a Free Assembly: By a Collection of Letters and Papers (1714)

The Council of Trent was a significant event in the history of the Catholic Church, but this book by Michael Geddes challenges the notion that it was a free and fair assembly. Through a collection of letters and papers, Geddes presents evidence that suggests the council was heavily influenced by political and religious forces, and that the decisions made were not necessarily in the best interests of the Church or its followers. This book offers a unique perspective on a pivotal moment in Catholic history, and sheds light on the complex relationships between religion, politics, and power.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
