Description
Against All Heresies by Alfonso de Castro, O. F. M. Written at the request of Spanish merchants in Flanders to combat heresy, this 1534 work is a comprehensive description and criticism of over 400 heretical ideas that had emerged within the Church since the time of the Apostles. The book presents these concepts in alphabetical order, providing a unique insight into the theological debates of its era. The author's most popular work earned him the nickname "the scourge of heretics," while King Philip II of Spain praised the book as "such a useful and beneficial book for the Christian state." This volume remains an important historical resource for understanding the complex theological landscape of the 16th century.
