of the expensive French silk from which the famous white garments of the Roman popes of the 19th–20th centuries were made. The pages of this publication tell the biographies of outstanding figures whose destinies were inextricably linked not only to the history of Italy but to the history of the whole world. The life of the pontiffs was extraordinarily interesting, and the events surrounding them are worthy of the best adaptations. Each of the Roman popes had something in common with us. They loved and hated, suffered and rejoiced. Today we enjoy watching historical series that vividly demonstrate events of the past, but why not turn to a text that will allow your imagination to present much more vividly what you are reading about? This book is not a textbook and not religious literature. Before you is a historical saga, only not filmed on tape, but written on paper.
