Exposition of the Doctrine of the Catholic Church
A plain statement, stripped of polemic, of the Catholic faith on the points disputed with Protestants: worship, the invocation of saints, justification, the sacraments, the Eucharist, the Mass and the authority of the Church. Written in 1671 and approved by Rome, it was among the most widely read works of controversy of the seventeenth century. With the letters concerning the Exposition and five fragments on controversy. Lachat edition (1864).
