Quattro pagine (un foglio in -4° ripiegato) contenenti tre lettere di Clemente VIII. Si dà il permesso a Francisco De Montilla, missionario francescano in Oriente di prendere delle reliquie dall’Italia per portarle nelle Filippine (dove Clemente, nel 1595, aveva elevato Manila a sede metropolitana). Ferrara era passata sotto il dominio dello Stato Pontificio a gennaio del 1598, cioè pochi mesi prima della redazione di queste lettere: per sottolineare l’importanza del recupero della città, Clemente prese possesso di persona della nuova provincia, dove avrebbe soggiornato fra il maggio e il novembre di quell’anno. La richiesta dell’altare, argomento della prima di queste tre lettere, proveniva da Antonio de Cordoba y Cardona, ambasciatore spagnolo a Manila: da notare che la Spagna decidette, nella questione della successione ferrarese, di mantenersi neutrale. Four pages (a folded leaf in -4°) including three Clemente VIII’s letters. Permission is given to Francisco de Montilla, a Franciscan missionary in Far East, to take holy relics from Italy, to be bringed in the Philippine (were Clemente, in 1595, raised Manila to metropolitan seat). Ferrara become under the Vatican dominion on january 1598, a few months before these letters were written. To underline the importance of having recovered this city, Clemente went himself to the city, where he stayed between may and november of that year. The request of an altair, subject of the first letter, had been done by Antonio de Cordoba y Cardona, performative Spanish ambassador in Manila: it has to be noticede that Spain remained neutral in the Ferrara question.

1945List3159Manila The Philippines 1945. Twenty-one photos: twelve measuring 2 ½ x 2 ½ inches most with stamped captions verso; nine measuring 2 x 3 ¾ inches most with captions on negative. Some wear; excellent. Imperial Japan occupied the Philippines from 1942 until its surrender in 1945. From early February to early March of 1945 American and Filipino forces fought to drive the Japanese out of the Philippines’ capital city of Manila. Though successful this campaign was incredibly destructive to both the infrastructure of Manila and to its people—including mass murder and rape of Filipino civilians by Japanese forces. Offered here are twenty-one photographs of buildings taken before and after the destruction of the city with most the twelve smaller photos showing the aftermath. Locations include several churches and university buildings the treasury building legislative building Manila Central Post Office and others. The photos taken after the battle are arresting showing Manila’s ruined architecture burnt out trees and downed power lines. unknown
