He lost his chair at the University of Rome owing to his opposition to the Fascists. As a scholar in History of Christianity and religious philosophy he was one of the most important exponents of the modernist current…. He directed the magazine Ricerche religiose (‘Religious Researches’) …. Those magazines were soon banned by the church and placed on the Index Librorum Prohibitorum, the index of publications to be considered as forbidden to Catholic readers. ” (Wikipedia, 2016) The first article in this volume is a scholarly work by Buonaiuti on reform movements with a discussion on Louis Israel Newman, the prominent American Reform Rabbi, and the influence of Jewish reform movements on Christian reform movements.
