| Resumo: | Hospitaller Malta began producing printed books in 1643. Until then, Italian printers published statutes, prayer books, liturgical and devotional literature, and any works that the Order required. Authors in Malta encountered two types of censorship: from the Order, which controlled the printing press; and, from the Roman Inquisition, which censored and prohibited books. This paper shall examine the censored manuscripts in the Archives of the Inquisition to determine the rationale for censorship and to trace any subsequent publication history. |
