Publisher's Synopsis
The Vatican Council and Its Definitions: A Pastoral Letter to the Clergy (1871) is a book written by Henry Edward Manning. The book provides a detailed account of the proceedings of the First Vatican Council, which was held in Rome from 1869 to 1870. The author, who was a prominent English Catholic priest and theologian, offers his insights into the council's decisions and the significance of its definitions. Manning's pastoral letter is addressed to the clergy, and it seeks to provide guidance on how to interpret and apply the council's teachings in their pastoral work. The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the Catholic Church's development during the 19th century and the role of the Vatican Council in shaping its theology and practice. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Catholic Church, its doctrines, and its relationship with the wider world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
