Sample Book Insights:

#1 The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith is the body in charge of promoting and safeguarding the doctrine on faith and morals throughout the Catholic world. It is one of nine Vatican congregations, and it generates plenty of rulings of its own.

#2 The Congregation has a long history with the Inquisition, which was the Church’s effort to deal with its perceived enemies, within and without, by whatever means necessary.

#3 The Vatican’s holdings are so great that they need to store some of them elsewhere. The Inquisition records are kept mainly in the palazzo’s western wing, and for four and a half centuries, they were closed to outsiders.

#4 The Archivio di Stato is a repository of the lives disrupted and sometimes summarily put to an end by the Catholic Church. It is a record of actions taken in the name of religion, though the implications go beyond religion.
