Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Chair of Peter or the Papacy: Considered in Its Institution, Development, and Organization, and in the Benefits Which, for Over Eighteen Centuries, It Has Conferred on Mankind In this Edition, I have been enabled, by the progress of events, to complete the history of the Kulturkampf, practically brought to a dose by the Ecclesiastical Laws Amendment Act of 1887 - a measure of relief for which the hitherto grievously oppressed German Catholics are indebted to four main causes; namely, the firm, prudent, and conciliatory attitude of Pope Leo XIII.; the devoted fidelity of the Bishops and Priests to the See of Peter; the gallant action of the Parliamentary "Centre" party, zealously sustained by the entire body of the German Catholic electors; and the wise discretion of the Imperial Chancellor, in courageously retracing his steps, by the removal of the greater part of those disabilities, which, fourteen years ago, he imposed on more than one third of the total population of Prussia. I have further been enabled to enter into the details of the Mediation of the Holy Father between Germany and Spain, in the affair of the Caroline Islands - an event the importance of which it is impossible to overestimate.
