Protestants condemned and persecuted in early modern decree
A dated extract from 1728 recounts harsh papal and imperial notes condemning Evangelics as heretics, denying burial rights, declaring them infamous, and proposing confiscation of estates. It details religious tensions in Mannheim, Palatinate politics, and pressures from Rome, with references to intercessions in Vienna and Chancery concerns at Ratisbon. News items note galleon cargo, London-Plenipotentiary talks, and continued Catholic-Protestant strains across Europe.
