| Summary: | In the central centuries of the Modern Age, Latin was the official language of the Church of Rome, but from the analysis of bulls, edicts and decrees it emerges that the vernacular was preferred as a vehicular language.

On what issues was it necessary to be understood? Was there fidelity to the originals or were the margins of interpretation exploited to stem the repressive grip imposed by the post-Tridentine papacy? |
