FOOTNOTES

At the end of the second volume of my 'Renaissance in Italy' I indulged the hope that I might live to describe
the phase of culture which closed that brilliant epoch. It was in truth demanded that a work pretending to
display the manifold activity of the Italian genius during the 15th century and the first quarter of the 16th,
should also deal with the causes which interrupted its further development upon the same lines.

So far as it was possible, I have conducted my treatment of the Catholic Revival on a method analogous to that adopted for the Renaissance. I found it, however, needful to enter more minutely into details regarding facts and institutions connected with the main theme of national culture.

The Catholic Revival was by its nature reactionary. In order to explain its influences, I have been compelled to analyze the position of Spain in the Italian peninsula, the conduct of the Tridentine Council, the specific organization of the Holy Office and the Company of Jesus, and the state of society upon which those forces were brought to bear.

In the list of books which follows these prefatory remarks, I have indicated the most important of the sources
used by me. Special references will be made in their proper places to works of a subordinate value for the
purposes of my inquiry.
