Description: Article from the Elwell evangelical dictionary.
The term "anticlerical" probably first appeared in the early 1850s in Catholic France. It indicated opposition to Ultramontane revival with its reassertion of the sacral power of priests and of the primacy of the pope in the church. A staggering battle in Italy and Europe over the temporal power of the pope focused anticlerical attitudes in the 1850s and 1860s, especially in Italy, Belgium, Spain, and France. Thereafter, to this day, anticlericalism as attitude and as movement has been a considerable political factor in every Roman Catholic area, notably in Europe, Latin America, and Quebec. Anticlericalism has condemned priestly participation in national governments, municipalities, elections, education, and land and capital ownership.
