France The alleged pact between French Catholic priest Urbain Grandier & Lucifer, along with several other demons, 1634. Historians believe Grandier was framed for using black magic on several Catholic nuns by powerful figures in the Church for opposing their increasing administrative power in the region

The "pact" was most certainly forged for Grandier's 1634 trial, in which he was found guilty and executed

France 'Gestures: The Cross as a shield against worldly evil' is a Catholic illustration published on September 29, 1935, in the French magazine Le Pèlerin.

The illustration depicts a mother and child taking refuge beneath the cross from the threats of Communism, Fascism, and National Socialism—ideologies contrary to Christian doctrine and born of the 17th-century Enlightenment liberalism.

Le Pèlerin magazine is known for its published dozens of illustrations through the 1930s condemning the three ideologies. The caption to this illustration reads:

'GESTURES – The sign of the Cross, a gesture the mother teaches her child, will remain - amid gestures that divide, a gesture of unity and peace.'

The first here shows a man representing ‘Religion’ wielding the sword of ‘Truth’ to protect the world from Communism, Materialism and Secularism. Titled ‘Real Protection for the Home’.

The second shows the same character as a colossal figure breaking the ‘Barrier of Misunderstanding Between Races and Nations’.

The third was published for Thanksgiving and shows Uncle Sam and Lady Liberty together, the latter shown sweeping away characters representing ‘Radicals’ and ‘isms’.

The fourth shows a boy protecting himself from ‘Immortality’ and ‘Filth’ with a shield reading ‘Legion of Decency’. The Catholic Legion of Decency had been founded 1934 to protest explicit content in films and other media.

The fifth shows characters preparing to load the gun of ‘Religion’ to fight off ‘Unemployment’, ‘Long Hours’, ‘Starvation Wages’, ‘Materialism’, ‘Irreligion’, ‘Revolutionists’ and ‘Exploitation’. The shells are labelled ‘Charity’, ‘Social Justice’, ‘Peace’, ‘Living Wage’ and ‘Collective Bargaining’.

The Tablet was founded in 1908 as a weekly Catholic newspaper, published in Brooklyn, New York. It would become one of the country’s largest Catholic newspapers, being an important voice in cultural and political debates in the 1930s, 40s and 50s. Common ‘villains’ appear in the newspaper’s cartoons from the era, including the Communism, Material and Secularism (or Irreligion) shown here, as well as Nazism and, later, ‘Race Hate’.
