A History of the Papacy from the Great Schism to the Sack of Rome V6 is a comprehensive account of the papacy during a tumultuous period of its history, written by Mandell Creighton. The book covers the period from the Great Schism in 1378 to the Sack of Rome in 1527, during which time the papacy faced numerous challenges and controversies, including the rise of rival antipopes, the Council of Constance, the Renaissance papacy, and the Protestant Reformation. Creighton provides a detailed analysis of the political, social, and religious factors that influenced the papacy during this period, as well as the personalities and actions of the popes themselves. The book is the sixth volume in a series on the history of the papacy, and is a valuable resource for scholars, students, and anyone interested in the history of the Catholic Church.1903. Volume Six of Six. Creighton writes in the Preface: My aim in this book is to bring together materials for a judgment of the change which came over Europe in the sixteenth century, to which the name of The Reformation is loosely given. I have attempted to do this from a strictly historical point of view, -by which I mean that I have contented myself with watching events and noting the gradual development of affairs. I have taken the history of the Papacy as the central point for my investigation, because it gives the largest opportunity for a survey of European affairs as a whole. Contents: Book VI.
