Book Description
Excerpt from The Religious Policy of the Bavarian Government During the Napoleonic Period Like every other state of Western Europe, Bavaria un derwent numerous and far-reaching changes during the Napoleonic period. At the close of Charles Theodore's long reign in 1799 Bavaria was a group of backward, poorly governed, loosely organized, almost exclusively Catholic lordships held together mainly by the bond of their common allegiance to an elector who regarded them as his private property. As a result of territorial, governmental, eco nomic and religious Changes, as astonishing and important for Bavaria as those experienced by France during the Revolutionary and Napoleonic period, Bavaria, by 1815, had become a modern state. The following discussion is concerned solely with the causes, nature, extent and result of the policy followed by the Bavarian government during the Napoleonic period in matters of religion.

The Pope and the Professor

Book Description
The Pope and the Professor tells the captivating story of the German Catholic theologian and historian Ignaz von Döllinger (1799-1890), who fiercely opposed the teaching of Papal Infallibility at the time of the First Vatican Council (1869-70), convened by Pope Pius IX (r. 1846-1878), among the most controversial popes in the history of the papacy. Döllinger's thought, his opposition to the Council, his high-profile excommunication in 1871, and the international sensation that this action caused offer a fascinating window into the intellectual and religious history of the nineteenth century. Thomas Albert Howard examines Döllinger's post-conciliar activities, including pioneering work in ecumenism and inspiring the"Old Catholic" movement in Central Europe. Set against the backdrop of Italian and German national unification, and the rise of anticlericalism and ultramontanism after the French Revolution, The Pope and the Professor is at once an endeavor of historical and theological inquiry. It provides nuanced historical contextualization of the events, topics, and personalities, while also raising abiding questions about the often fraught relationship between individual conscience and scholarly credentials, on the one hand, and church authority and tradition, on the other.
