Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book contains the exchanged letters between the French bishops and the Pope during the abolition of the French monarchy and the establishment of the French First Republic. The Pope's letters condemned the new constitution regarding the powers of the French church and the bishops denounce the pope's interference, asserting that the new French constitution does not violate Catholic doctrine. While the Pope maintains that governments have no right to interfere with ecclesiastical affairs, the bishops claim that the church should defer to the will of the people and not seek special exemptions for itself. Through this conflict, the book explores the limits of papal authority, the boundaries between church and state, and the nature of religious freedom.
