«I peccati del Vaticano» is the historical essay by Claudio Rendina, published by Newton Compton in paperback (334 pages, in Italian).
Rendina covers two thousand years of Catholic Church history and documents its vices: crusades, persecution of Jews and witches, nepotism, simony, and trafficking in relics. It includes contemporary paedophilia scandals and the enduring relevance of Gregory VII's Dictatus Papae, which proclaims the Church's infallibility.
Published in 2010 in Italian. Full title: «I peccati del Vaticano. Superbia, avarizia, lussuria, pedofilia: gli scandali e i segreti della Chiesa cattolica».
In Italian, for readers interested in the history of the Catholic Church and its scandals and secrets.
