ISBN: 9780567670250 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

In particular, Pope Urban VIII's aggressive drive to establish papal control through the agency of the Inquisition played out differently among the Italian states, whose local inquisitions varied in number...
