Heaven Open to All Men

A theological treatise by Pierre Cuppé, a Catholic priest of Saintonge in western France, arguing "without unsettling the practice of religion" that all men will finally be saved. Written around 1716 and long circulated in manuscript before printing, it is a rare witness to universalism inside early eighteenth-century Catholicism, and its English translation (this is the 1745 London printing, scanned from the British Library's copy) put the argument before the same public that would soon read Siegvolck and Winchester. Its notoriety was great enough to draw published refutations.
