Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the life of Pietro Carnesecchi, an Italian who played a significant role in the Protestant Reformation despite being relatively unknown outside his native country. His association with Juan de Valdàs and other influential figures of the movement profoundly influenced the development of Italian Protestantism, providing a unique perspective on the religious turmoil of the sixteenth century. The book explores Carnesecchi's journey from being a high-ranking official in the Catholic Church to embracing Evangelical beliefs. His close ties with intellectuals and nobles allowed him to witness the rise of the Reformation firsthand, and the book sheds light on the spread of Protestant ideas within the Italian elite. The author analyzes Carnesecchi's writings and trial documents, providing a glimpse into the challenges faced by Protestants in a fiercely Catholic Italy. The book raises questions about the nature of religious authority, the role of the individual conscience, and the impact of persecution on belief systems. By examining Carnesecchi's life, the book offers a valuable contribution to our understanding of the complexities of the Reformation in Italy, presenting a case study of an individual who navigated the treacherous waters of religious change and paid the ultimate price for his beliefs.
