Popery: Its Character And Its Crimes (1847)

""Popery: Its Character And Its Crimes"" is a historical book written by William Elfe Tayler in 1847. The book provides a critical analysis of the Roman Catholic Church, its practices, and its role in European history. Tayler argues that the Church's authoritarianism and intolerance have led to numerous crimes, including the persecution of Protestants, the Inquisition, and the suppression of scientific and intellectual inquiry. The author also explores the Church's political influence and its impact on the development of European civilization. Tayler's work was part of a larger movement of anti-Catholic sentiment in the 19th century, and the book remains a significant historical document for understanding the relationship between religion and politics in Europe during this time period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
