The Censorship of the Church of Rome and Its Influence Upon the Production and Distribution of Literature V2 is a book written by George Haven Putnam. The book is a detailed exploration of the role played by the Roman Catholic Church in the censorship of literature throughout history. Putnam examines the Church's influence on the production and distribution of literature, including the ways in which it has suppressed or banned works that it deemed inappropriate or heretical. The book is divided into two volumes, with the second volume focusing on the Church's influence on literature in the modern era. Putnam's work is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of censorship, the role of religion in shaping cultural production, and the ongoing struggle for freedom of expression.1906. Other volumes in this set include ISBN number(s): 0766163644. Volume 2 of 2. A study of the history of the prohibitory and expurgatory indexes, together with some consideration of the effects of Protestant censorship and of censorship by the state. In these volumes, Mr. Putnam presents a record of the Indexes which have been issued under the authority of the church of Rome, or which, having been compiled by ecclesiastics, were published under the authority of the State, between the year 1546 (the date of the first list of prohibited books which may properly be described as an Index) and 1900, in which year was issued the second Index of Leo XIII, the latest in the papal series. To this record is added as selection of the more noteworthy examples of censorship during the earlier centuries of the church; a schedule of the more important decrees, edicts, pastoral briefs, etc., issued under ecclesiastical authority; and a specification of certain censorship regulations which came into force in the several States of Europe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
