The Council of Trent, studied for centuries as a crucial episode in European history, was also a world event. This book highlights the importance of not only looking at Europe through the lens of the Tridentine decrees, but also of looking across the oceans where the Church - and the legislative texts from the Council of Trent - can be seen for the first time as truly a universal body.
