    Journal of Religion & Society Volume 1 (1999) ISSN 1522-5658 Galileo and the Inquisition1 William E. Carroll, Cornell College (Mt. Vernon, Iowa) Abstract The story of Galileo's encounter with the Inquisition in the early 17th Century continues to be an important part of the story of modernity. Galileo is frequently seen as breaking with the scientific heritage of Aristotle to found a new science of nature and, in the process, he also had to do battle with an entrenched biblical literalism in the Catholic Church. According to the generally accepted view, Galileo's break with both Aristotle and the Inquisition is a founding feature of modern culture. This essay challenges such a view and argues that Galileo's science, at least in its principles, is Aristotelian in inspiration, and that Galileo and the theologians of the Inquisition shared first principles concerning both the complementarity of faith and reason as well as the authority of the Church to be the authentic interpreter of the truths of scripture. In fact, the controversy between Galileo and the Inquisition would be unintelligible were it not the case that all parties shared common first principles. Introduction [1] On the occasion of the publication, in March 1987, of the Catholic Church's condemnation of in vitro fertilization, surrogate motherhood, and fetal experimentation, there appeared a cartoon in a Roman newspaper, in which two bishops are standing next to a telescope. In the distant night sky, in addition to Saturn and the Moon, there are dozens of test-tubes. One bishop turns to the other, who is in front of the telescope, and asks: "This time what should we do? Should we look or not?" The historical reference to Galileo was clear.

    AVVERTENZA 11 lavoro, nato come inventario di un « fondo » dell Archivio di Stato geno­ vese a fini essenzialmente archivistici e non storici, risente di questa sua origine nella rigorosa limitazione dei regesti a quel fondo, pur ricostruito sulla base dell’ordine cronologico dei documenti, e nella sobrietà discreta dei singoli re­ gesti. Del pari la bibliografia non vuol essere un repertorio critico e non intende richiamare tutte le edizioni comunque eseguite dei diversi atti, ma limita i riferim enti alle edizioni principali, apparse nelle raccolte sistematiche più comu­ nem ente accessibili, ed a quanto fu pubblicalo del codice diplomatico dell Im­ periale. Si è ritenuta peraltro utile anche una serie di riferimenti agli Annali di Caffaro e Continuatori per i passi in cui si ricordano i fatti significati dai docum enti del fondo. Il lettore d’altra parte facilmente rileverà che tale appa­ rato si riferisce con larga prevalenza ai secoli del Medio Evo; il che rappresenta un fatto pieno di significato, anche se la serie dei richiami, come si è detto, e largamente incompleta. Gli indici, alla cui redazione ha direttamente collaborato, col dott. Liscian- drelli ed il dott. Costamagna, anche il Segretario prof. T.O. De Negri, che ha cu rato l’edizione, si riferiscono strettamente ai nomi riportati nei Regesti, ove spesso, per ovvie ragioni, i nominativi personali sono suppliti da richiami anoni­ mi o da titoli generici (re, pontefice1, imperatore...). Essi hanno quindi un valore indicativo di massima e non possono esaurire la serie dei riferimenti. Per m aggior chiarezza diamo di seguito, col richiamo alle sigle e nell or­ dine alfabetico delle sigle stesse, l’elenco delle pubblicazioni utilizzate.

    Memoirs of Napoleon Bonaparte — Volume 09

    Memoirs Of Napoleon Bonaparte — Volume 09 By Louis Antoine Fauvelet De Bourrienne Memoirs Of Napoleon Bonaparte CHAPTER I. 1805. Abolition of the Republican calendar—Warlike preparations in Austria— Plan for re-organizing the National Guard—Napoleon in Strasburg— General Mack—Proclamation—Captain Bernard's reconnoitering mission—The Emperor's pretended anger and real satisfaction— Information respecting Ragusa communicated by Bernard —Rapid and deserved promotion—General Bernard's retirement to the United States of America. I had been three months at Hamburg when I learned that the Emperor had at last resolved to abolish the only remaining memorial of the Republic, namely, the revolutionary calendar. That calendar was indeed an absurd innovation, for the new denominations of the months were not applicable in all places, even in France; the corn of Provence did not wait to be opened by the sun of the month of Messidor. On the 9th of September a 'Senates- consulte' decreed that on the 1st of January following the months and days should resume their own names. I read with much interest Laplace's report to the Senate, and must confess I was very glad to see the Gregorian calendar again acknowledged by law, as it had already been acknowledged in fact. Frenchmen in foreign countries experienced particular inconvenience from the adoption of a system different from all the rest of the world. A few days after the revival of the old calendar the Emperor departed for the army. When at Hamburg it may well be supposed that I was anxious to obtain news, and I received plenty from the interior of Germany and from some friends in Paris.

    : Catholic France Prior to the French Revolution. 119 CATHOLIC FRANCE PRIOR TO THE FRENCH REVOLU- TION. 1 DURING the reign of the unfortunate Louis XVI. the popula- tion of the Kingdom of France is said to have been 33,000,000 souls, the great majority of whom were Catholics. The fabric of the Church comprised Archbishops 18 Bishops 117 Bishops in charge of Foreign Missions 11 Canons and Prebendaries 800 Ecclesiastics, including dignitaries and priests 386,000 Parishes and churches 34,498 Parochial annexes having chapels 4,644 Universities 24 Academies 86 Heads of religious communities of men 16 No kingdom in Europe at a corresponding time, with the excep- tion of the Two Sicilies, had so numerous a hierarchy as that of France. The number of ecclesiastics, dignitaries and priests far exceeded that of any other nation in Europe, while the aggregate of parishes having churches exceeded that of Spain by about 15,000, Spain at that epoch having the largest number of any nation in Europe except France. In the cities of France there was an aggregate of 96b hospitals, with free beds and attendance for the sick or for those accidentally injured. There were, where most needed, asylums for foundlings, for orphans, for the blind, for deaf-mutes ; refuges for incurables, for the aged poor, for helpless cripples, and in fact, "for all the ills that 1 flesh is heir to." These works of mercy were served by eighteen different orders of religious women, whose head houses were prin- cipally in Paris, the mother superior of one of which, renowned for the holiness of its community, had been a princess royal of France, daughter of Louis XV.
