Not much liked by Catholic historians, but now generally accepted and used. Phases in papal reaction to Protestantism: Ignoring the problem (up to mid 1530s) Defensive (up to 1560s) Forward-looking, proactive (after 1560s)Early 16th century Popes: Early 16th century Popes Leo X and the “Luther affair” Adrian VI (1522-23), Dutch, starts serious reform efforts but dies after just 13 months Clement VII (1523-34). Great patron of the arts, learning, the Medici family and Florence. No attempts at reform. “He had no more sense than his uncle Leo X of the urgency and magnitude of what was happening in Germany.” Slide4: Paul III (1534-49), the first “Counter-Reformation” pope Paul III, an “unlikely reformer, an old-fashioned nepotist who as a cardinal had a mistress who bore him four children.” Viewed the church “as a fortress to be guarded, defended, and kept on the alert” Paul III (1534-49): Paul III (1534-49) Reinstates the Roman Inquisition – means that “heretics” will go on trial. Public criticism of the church becomes dangerous Approves the Jesuit order in 1540 (more on this soon) And, importantly, convenes the first session of the Council of Trent in 1545 Council of Trent: Council of Trent Three sessions: the first two “defensive,” the last one, from 1561-63, the most important.
