Abstract

This article considers the year 1875 and the debate among members of the imperial political camp on a possible amnesty for bishops involved in the so-called “Religious Question” in the 1870s. Based on various texts on the subject driven by a central antithesis of “Freemasonry versus Ultramontanism”, which was the main theme of political-religious conflicts at the time, we examine this state of affairs by considering the response by imperial diplomacy, and fundamentally, the logic of constitutional law, with the debate related in records for the Council of State and other sources, both prior to and during the most tense years of the “Religious Question”.
