Product Description
Canons & Decrees of the Council of Trent: Original Text with English Translation
In the list of general councils Trent holds the first place, not only because of its restatement of Catholic doctrine and its initiation of a genuine reform, but also because of its extraordinary influence both within and without the Church. Its purpose was twofold, to define the doctrines of the Church in reply to the heresies of the Protestants, and to bring about a thorough reform of the inner life of Christians. To enhance the merits of this treasure, included in the second half of the book is the authentic Latin text of the cannons and decrees. The translation of these dogmatic decisions will be of immense advantage not only to the clergy, but also to seminarians and laypersons.
