Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Lives of the Popes, Vol. 4 From the commencement of the re-action which followed so swiftly on the great Reformation, the character of the Roman pontiffs underwent a remarkable change. Men of activity and energy, not mere men of pleasure, were now chosen to steer through troubled waters the "bark of St. Peter." Attention was paid not only to the personal influence, but also to the personal qualities of a candidate for the tiara. Hardly would a Leo x., much less an Alexander VI., have now succeeded in winning the suffrages of the conclave. To this marked alteration in the character of the popes may in a great degree be ascribed the success of the re-action. The world was by no means prepared for so vast a revolution as that of throwing off altogether the supremacy of the pope.
