Unlike earlier studies, Defining Nature's Limits engages the history of both learned and popular magic. Tarrant explains how the church developed a program that sought to codify what was proper belief through confession, inquisition, and punishment and prosecuted what they considered superstition or heresy that stretched beyond the boundaries of religion. These efforts were continued by the Roman Inquisition, established in 1542. Although it was designed primarily to combat Protestantism, from the outset the new institution investigated both practitioners of "illicit" magic and inquiries into natural philosophy, delegitimizing certain practices and thus shaping the development of early modern science. Describing the dynamics of censorship that continued well into the post-Reformation era, Defining Nature's Limits is revisionist history that will interest scholars of the history science, the history of magic, and the history of the church alike"-- $c Provided by publisher. 610 20 $a Catholic Church $z Italy $x History. 610 26 $a Eglise catholique $x Histoire. 610 27 $a Catholic Church. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00531720 650 0 $a Inquisition $z Italy $x History. 650 0 $a Magic $z Italy $x History. 650 0 $a Religion and science $z Italy $x History. 650 6 $a Inquisition $z Italie $x Histoire. 650 6 $a Religion et sciences $z Italie $x Histoire. 650 7 $a RELIGION / Christianity / Denominations. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Inquisition. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00973796 650 7 $a Magic. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01005468 650 7 $a Religion and science. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01093848 651 7 $a Italy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204565 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20230317011313.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0A20C3F2C48911EDAC2163E35EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
