Explanation:

The Index Librorum Prohibitorum, in English "Index of prohibited books", is a list of those publications that the Catholic Church classified as pernicious books for the faith and that Catholics were not authorized to read; It also established, in its first part, the norms of the Church regarding the censorship of books. It was promulgated for the first time at the request of the Council of Trent by Pope Pius IV on March 24, 1564 - printed in Venice by Paolo Manuzio. The Index knew more than forty editions, in charge of the Congregation of the Index, created by Pope Pius V in 1571. The last edition was that of 1948 until on February 8, 1966, Pope Paul VI suppressed it.

This order was applied especially when the rupture of Western Christianity occurred on the occasion of the dissemination of the Protestant Reformation that found a formidable ally in print. Thus, in 1523 the king Carlos V prohibited the diffusion of the works of Martin Luther in all his domains, including the Hispanic Monarchy and the Germanic Empire, which was ratified the following year for the entire Catholic orb by Pope Clement VII.

In this context of religious and political crisis, some Catholic authorities and institutions - faithful to Roman and papal orthodoxy against Protestants, supporters of Luther's ideas, and other reformers - make lists or "indexes" of books forbidden for being considered heretical.

In 1559, Pope Paul IV promulgated the Index librorum prohibitorum of the Roman Inquisition, but the one that covered the entire field of Catholic Christianity was promulgated at the request of the Council of Trent by Pope Pius IV on March 24, 1564.
