Each episode of Civilisation is narrated by Kenneth Clark, the author of the book the series is based on. Each volume offers an overview of the politics, art, philosophy, and other cultural phenomena that shaped a particular epoch of human development. In this volume, viewers visit Rome during the Counter-Reformation, as Protestant and Catholic churches squared off.
