Description:
1758 Cyprian Bishop of Carthage Complete Works Early Christian MARTYR FOLIO

"It is a persistent evil to persecute a man who belongs to the grace of God. It is a calamity without remedy to hate the happy."
― Cyprian

Cyprian was an Early Church bishop of Carthage from the 3rd-century. Cyprian was the first to write about the primacy of the Pope as it was set out in "The Unity of The Catholic Church". Most of his writings surround pastoral ministry and addressing many of the issues with the Roman government. He also determined prayer to be "the only refuge of the Christian".

Description:
1690 Life of Pope Sixtus V Gregorio Leti Counter Reformation ROME Vatican 2in1

"While I live, every criminal must die"
– Pope Sixtus V

A rare biography of the life of Pope Sixtus V by the famous Gregorio Leti. Leti was known to possess an 'anti-papal' view when it came to his historical writings, however, "The Life of Pope Sixtus V" was widely read and translated throughout Europe during the 17th- and 18th-century. Even though Leti was called 'inexact' by the Catholic Encyclopedia and 'inaccurate' by the Lutheran church, his historical importance and relevance is well-known and unprecedented. (Mosheim, 194).
Pope Sixtus V was revered for his role in eradicating and decreasing corruption and disorder throughout Rome. While he provoked controversy by destroying some iconic antiquities, he rebuilt much of the Papacy, restored economic conditions, and was a central figure in the Counter-Reformation.

Description:
1686 Frankish Monk Ratramnus Eucharist Supper Carolingian Catholic Blood Jesus
Ratramnus was a 9th-century Frankish monk who served the Corbie Monastery. Ratramnus was a Carolingian theologian who is primarily remembered for his work 'On the Body and Blood of the Lord'. This book was a direct response to Paschasius Radbertus's treatise of a similar title which described the elements of the Lord's Supper, or Eucharist as it pertains to the blood of Christ. Ratramnus argued that the elements did not physically change property, that they remained bread and wine and did not become Jesus's blood and flesh – a debate which has lingered for centuries within the Catholic Church.

Description:
1673 Council of Trent Italian Jesuit Pallavicino Catholic Doctrine HUGE FOLIO
Beginning in 1651, Pietro Sforza Pallavicino composed a thorough and detailed response denying Paolo Sarpi's 'History of the Council of Trent'. With the support of other Jesuits, Pallavicino wrote extensively on Catholic doctrine which does not differ from that which was established by the Council of Trent; however, he does discuss major controversial treatises that arose from the most important ecumenical council. This work became the source and the focus of major criticism and is the reason that Pallavicino is remembered today.
