Winner of the John Gilmary Shea PrizeThe Council of Trent (15451563), the Catholic Churchs attempt to put its house in order in response to the Protestant Reformation, has long been praised and blamed for things it never did. Now, in this first full onevolume history in modern times, John W. OMalley brings to life the volatile issues that pushed several Holy Roman emperors, kings and queens of France, and five popesand all of Europe with themrepeatedly to the brink of disaster.During the councils eighteen years, war and threat of war among the key players, as well as the Ottoman Turks onslaught against Christendom, turned the council into a perilous enterprise. Its leaders declined to make a pronouncement on war against infidels, but Trents most glaring and ironic silence was on the authority of the papacy itself. The popes, who reigned as Italian monarchs while serving as pastors, did everything in their power to keep papal reform out of the councils handsand their power was considerable. OMalley shows how the council pursued its contentious parallel agenda of reforming the Church while simultaneously asserting Catholic doctrine.Like What Happened at Vatican II, OMalleys Trent: What Happened at the Council strips mythology from historical truth while providing a clear, concise, and fascinating account of a pivotal episode in Church history. In celebration of the 450th anniversary of the councils closing, it sets the record straight about the much misunderstood failures and achievements of this critical moment in European history.
