Quotes:Index Librorum Prohibitorum

Zirkoff, Boris

*Index Librorum Prohibitorum. The title of the official list of those books which on doctrinal or moral grounds the Roman Catholic Church authoritatively forbids the members of its communion to read or to possess. Those which are interdicted until amended, and of which a list, the Index Expurgatorias, was at one time unofficially drawn up, are now marked with an asterisk or dagger. The Index is now prepared by the Holy Office, the former Congregation of the Index having been abolished in 1917.
