  16. Church of England • During this time, Henry was trying desperately to change England’s religious stance. • England was affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church.

Protestants • Violence erupts in 1566 when Calvinists destroy Catholic Churches. • Phillip sends in 10,000 troops • English Aid to Netherlands – War? Spanish Armada

  35. Catholic Response Catholic Reformation Counter Reformation Stop spread of Protestantism • Revive Catholic Spirituality

  36. Agencies of Catholic Reform • The chief agencies in carrying out this work were: • The papacy • A group of religious orders, especially the Society of Jesus or Jesuits • The Council of Trent • The Inquisition • The Index of Prohibited Books

  37. The Society of Jesus • The Jesuits were the creation of St. Ignatius Loyola. He was a Spanish soldier, injured in battle, who experienced a conversion during his convalescence.

  38. St. Ignatius Loyola • As a consequence, he felt a new desire to devote his life to the service of God and carried his military ideals with him. Henceforth, he would be a Soldier of Christ.

  39. Purposes of the Order • The original purpose of the Jesuits was to reach and convert the masses of people who had strayed from the church. Thus preaching was their fundamental task. They also stressed the instruction of children in Christian doctrine and urged more frequent confession and communion.

  40. Council of Trent (1545-63) • Salvation could be achieved by faith and works • Only the Church could translate and interpret the Bible. • Selling indulgences were forbidden • Creation of seminaries – training schools – better education and training of priests • Reaffirm celibacy, good works, authority of the papacy, and transubstantiation(bread and wine)

  41. Persecution and Repression • The states of Europe were asked to facilitate the work of the Inquisition. • In France, the request was denied. • In Spain, however, the activities of the Inquisition, long vigorous, were stimulated even further. • Roman inquisition – Galileo incident

  42. Witchcraft Craze • 1480s-1660s – most common in 1560s • Economic and Social upheaval results in social tensions that manifest themselves in witchcraft craze. • Causes? • As many as 100,000- 200,000 trials • Who was most frequently accused? Why?

  43. The Index • The Roman Index of Prohibited Books, another means of suppressing heretical doctrines. • It included a wide variety of books, including not only heretical ones but also obscene books and books on witchcraft. • In addition, the pope appointed a Congregation of the Index, to keep the Index up to date and to publish revised editions periodically. • Lasted to 1966

  44. Results • The church did correct many of their abuses. i.e. indulgences • Europe was religiously divided. The Protestants controlled the North and the Catholics controlled the South. • Religious persecution – Jews, lesser Protestant groups • Protestant work ethic/Capitalism • Future War
