- Description is exactly "A direct outcome of the Council of Trent, the <em>Index librorum prohibitorum</em> ("Index of Prohibited Books") provided a list of authors and works that were banned by the Catholic Church. The first Tridentine <em>Index</em> prohibited the complete writings of 610 authors, identified 69 additional authors whose prohibited works were listed individually, and banned 297 anonymous titles. As would be the case with all indexes of prohibited books, no explanation for a text's suppression was provided."
