Facts on File Encyclopedia of Catholicism by Frank K. Flinn 2007 PDF eBook

The Encyclopedia of World Religions series has been designed to provide comprehensive coverage
of six major global religious traditions.Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, Roman Catholicism,
and Protestant Christianity. The volumes have been constructed in an A-to-Z format to provide a
handy guide to the major terms, concepts, people, events, and organizations that have, in each case,
transformed the religion from its usually modest beginnings to the global force that it has become.


In creating these encyclopedias, the attempt has been made to be comprehensive if not exhaustive.
As space allows, in approximately 800 entries, each author has attempted to define and explain the
basic terms used in talking about the religion, make note of definitive events, introduce the most
prominent figures, and highlight the major organizations. The coverage is designed to result in both
a handy reference tool for the religious scholar/specialist and an understandable work that can be
used fruitfully by anyone.a student, an informed lay person, or a reader simply wanting to look up a
particular person or idea.


The main body of each encyclopedia is constituted of the approximately 800 entries, arranged
alphabetically. These entries include some 200 biographical entries covering religious figures of
note in the tradition, with a distinct bias to the 19th and 20th centuries and some emphasis on
leaders from different parts of the world. Special attention has been given to highlighting female
contributions to the tradition, a factor often overlooked, as religion in all traditions has until
recently been largely a male-dominated affair.


The Encyclopedia of Catholicism seeks to cover the landmark people, movements, institutions,
practices, and doctrines of Roman Catholicism from its earliest origins.
