Eso No Estaba En Mi Libro de Historia Los Concilios

Did you know that a pope was tried after his death? Or that there were councils that were never officially recognized, but attempted to change history in the shadows? This book invites you to discover the lesser-known--and more fascinating--side of the Church councils. With a lively style full of anecdotes, human tensions, and unexpected revelations, Jesús Galisteo Leiva immerses us in the ins and outs of the great councils: from Nicaea to Vatican II, including forgotten, scandalous, or outright forbidden episodes. This is not an academic chronicle or a treatise reserved for specialists. It is a critical, entertaining, and well-documented look at the councils as scenes of power, intrigue, and passion: popes in conflict, heresies condemned, dogmas debated, conspiring bishops, saints who doubt, and silences that speak louder than official documents. From the Cadaver Council, where a deceased pontiff was judged, to the debates that still reverberate in the Church today, this work reveals that councils were not only religious events, but also political, social, and deeply human.
