Alain Tallon, « Inquisition romaine et monarchie française au XVIe siècle », Presses universitaires de Provence, ID : 10.4000/books.pup.6411
France, in a rather unanimous way, refused that the new inquisitorial jurisdiction set up by Paul III in 1542 be implemented, seeing that even the Ligue did not want the inquisition under its Roman form. Since 1557, when Henri II had obtained the creation of a centralized inquisition in France, the project –that was not to materialize– implied a national inquisition, autonomous from pope and king alike. Afterwards, interventions from French diplomatic circles in favour of the monarchy’s good servants that the Italian Inquisition had called into question, clearly outline the quintessential opposition between a conception of justice attached to privilege and a theoretically egalitarian jurisdiction.
