This catalogue of heretical writings was compiled during the first years of the Protestant Reformation by Bernard of Luxemburg, a Dominican theologian and Inquisitor of Cologne. It was among the first publications to identify the “heretical” works of Martin Luther and his followers, and in subsequent decades it served as the basis for several regionally administered lists of prohibited books as well as the first “Pauline” Index librorum prohibitorum, published for Pope Paul IV in 1559.
