The Rule of the Monk: Or Rome in the Nineteenth Century is a historical book written by Giuseppe Garibaldi and published in 1870. The book is a critique of the Papal States and the power of the Catholic Church in Rome during the 19th century. Garibaldi, a prominent Italian nationalist and revolutionary, argues that the Church's influence over the state has resulted in corruption, oppression, and stagnation. The book is divided into two parts. The first part explores the history of the Papal States and the Church's role in Italian politics. Garibaldi describes the Church's control over education, the economy, and the legal system, arguing that this has prevented progress and kept the people of Rome in poverty. The second part of the book presents Garibaldi's vision for a secular, democratic Italy free from the influence of the Church. He calls for the unification of Italy and the establishment of a republic, with Rome as its capital. Overall, The Rule of the Monk is a passionate and persuasive argument against the power of the Catholic Church in Italy. It provides valuable insight into the political and social climate of 19th century Rome and the struggle for Italian unification.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
