Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the full account of an extraordinary diplomatic mission from Brazil to Rome in 1873. The Catholic Church in Brazil, led by several bishops, had begun to challenge the Brazilian governmentâs authority to intervene in Church affairs. These challenges took the form of public denunciations of Freemasons inside the Church who were often influential in society. After several instances of government authority being undermined by the Church, the Brazilian government dispatched a special envoy to Rome to engage with the Vatican on the subject. The historical account provided is enhanced by the inclusion of official documents that detail the back-and-forth between Brazilian diplomats and the Holy See. These documents provide an insight into the complex negotiations that took place, and the challenges faced by both sides in reaching a resolution. The book presents the way in which the Brazilian government sought to remind the Church of its duty to respect the separation of Church and state, while also demonstrating a desire to work with the Church to achieve a peaceful resolution. Overall, this book is a valuable contribution to the historical record of Church-state relations in Brazil, and provides a fascinating insight into the diplomatic efforts undertaken to resolve a major conflict between the two institutions.
