In response, a group of Jesuit scholars at the behest of Pope Pius IX, sought to combat heresy and restore Italian society with a new periodical: La Civilta Cattolica. This book provides a valuable record of the journal's infancy, presenting a selection of its early writings. Timely and ambitious, La Civilta Cattolica sought to fuse religion with politics by articulating a doctrine of social renewal based on the principles of Catholic Christianity. This volume chronicles the challenges its authors faced: fears of censorship, accusations of political extremism, even threats to their safety. Despite these obstacles, they succeeded in establishing a widely read and influential publication that continues to resonate with scholars of religion and history. Providing a unique insight into the religious and political landscape of early 19th century Italy and the birth of a major Catholic periodical, this book will captivate readers interested in the complex relationship between faith and power.
