Inquisition and Index
  1. Inquisition was ecclesiastical court set up to investigate & prosecute heretics. Established in Germany, Italy and Spain
    1. Spanish Inquisition: by 1520s it was targeting Erasmus and Lutherans. In 1559-62 very active putting some 77 Protestants to death
      1. After, more concerned with lapsed converts, and with investigating acts of immorality by Spanish Christians
      2. Roman Inquisition: aim was to set up network of tribunals throughout Catholic Europe. Most countries acted independently of the Roman court
        1. Spain and Portugal had their own organisations
          1. France and Germany were unwilling to defer to the papacy when dealing with heresy
            1. Much of the time was spent investigating cases of immorality and witchcraft, and a few executions occurred
            2. Censorship formed important part of Inquisition's work
              1. University faculties of theology and city councils produced their own lists of prohibited reading
                1. Spanish Index: Charles V granted it the right to censor books in 1545, and further revisions occurred in 1551
                  1. Roman Index: Begun by Paul IV in 1559. Banned over 500 authors including Erasmus, Machiavelli and 50 vernacular Bibles
                    1. Tridentine Index (1564) complied a more select list
                      1. Released after last session of Council of Trent by Congregation of the Index
                        1. Would be model for every Index to be released from this time.
                          1. Spelled the end of the 'free pass' in all of Italy including liberal states such as Venice for some time.
                          2. Overall: Inquisition was successful in Italy but Europe not really affected as they had their own systems; too few to really be effective
                            1. Revisionist view: some credit due as it improved literacy rates - seen as having educational role - and moral standards heightened
                              1. Traditional view: more of a secret police to keep order and kill Protestats
                              2. Overall: Index not effective as it was impossible to police as there was an extensive book trade in Protestant books at the time
