Perhaps the most dramatic form of censorship in Christendom, the Index was not limited to theology: it banned works ranging from love stories to philosophical treatises to political theory. All the writings of certain authors—including David Hume, Thomas Hobbes, Émile Zola, and Jean-Paul Sartre—were prohibited, while only specific books by other authors were proscribed, such as John Milton’s Paradise Lost and Blaise Pascal’s Pensées. One or more works by nearly every modern Western philosopher were censored in the Index, even those who professed a belief in God, such as Erasmus, René Descartes, Immanuel Kant, George Berkeley, and Nicolas Malebranche. Other famous writers with banned books included Voltaire, Edward Gibbon, Montesquieu, Giordano Bruno, Francis Bacon, Laurence Sterne, Daniel Defoe, Nicolaus Copernicus, and Níkos Kazantzákis. That the works of some atheist thinkers, notably Friedrich Nietzsche andArthur Schopenhauer, were not listed was because of the supplemental Tridentine ban on heretical works. (English)
