About this title

Synopsis

Beall presents a new Latin edition with facing pages of English translation of Libellus ad Leionem Decimum, a long letter addressed in 1513 to the new pope Leo X. The authors were two Camaldolese monks, Paulo Guistiniani and Pietro Querini, convinced that the Church needed imminent reform. Their letter predates the Theses of Martin Luther by three years, and though they agreed in principles with some points in previous reformers' understanding of the problems and their solutions, Beall says, their orientation was fully in support of the core of traditional doctrine and of the supremacy of the bishop of Rome and the steadfast tradition of previous councils. There was no response to the letter from Rome, and Leo's reaction to it is not known, but it remains one piece of the movement that led to the Reformation.
