Book Description
Work contains history of popes from Saint Peter, the first Bishop of Rome to Pius IX, who was elected in 1846 "[while the preceding work was passing through the press, intelligence was received of the death of Gregory XVI ...]" vol. 2, p. 432. "This work opens to our view a clear exposition of the public history and private practices of the men, who, from the position of simple pastors of a singe church, advanced their authority, step by step, until they became not only the ecclesiastical, but in fact the temporal lords of Christendom"--Translator's Preface, p.[3].
A History of the Popes

ISBN: 1580512291

Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
A History of the Popes tells the story of the oldest living institution in the Western world—the papacy. From its origins in Saint Peter, Jesus' chief disciple, through Pope Benedict XVI today, the popes have been key players in virtually all of the great dramas of the western world in the last two thousand years. Acclaimed church historian John W. O'Malley's engaging narrative examines the 265 individuals who have claimed to be Peter's successors. Rather than describe each pope one by one, the book focuses on the popes that shaped pivotal moments in both church and world history. The author does not shy away from controversies in the church, and includes legends like Pope Joan and a comprehensive list of popes and antipopes to help readers get a full picture of the papacy. This simultaneously reverent yet critical book will appeal to readers interested in both religion and history as it chronicles the saints and sinners who have led the Roman Catholic Church over the past 2000 years. The author draws from his popular audio CD lecture series on the topic, 2,000 Years of Papal History, available through Now You Know Media (www.nowyouknowmedia.com).
