Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is primarily concerned with the history and significance of the sale of indulgences by the Roman Church. The author collects documents that provide an insight into the evolution of how indulgences were used as a form of spiritual bribery to finance projects such as the build…ing of St. Peter's Basilica in Rome. Martin's focus is not just on the history of this corruption within the Church, but on its broader spiritual significance. In this book, he discusses the damage done to individuals and the Church as a whole by the venal sale of indulgences, using examples, quotes, and historical context. The author's detailed research and well-documented evidence provide a valuable resource for academics and religious thinkers, providing context on how a nominally holy enterprise became a tool of vice. One of the most important points made in this book is the historical purchase of indulgences not only by corrupt priests and bishops, but by wealthy laypeople seeking to escape the consequences of their sins. That is to say, the author argues that the sale of indulgences allowed many to avoid the consequences of any sin, so long as they were willing to pay.
