160212702Amsterdam Herman de Buck 1602. 12 287 5 folia. Origineel overslaand Perkament 4°. Goed exemplaar van de eerste druk van deze verdediging van de waarheid van de christelijke religie. Eigenaarsnaam in oud handschrift op het eerste vrije schutblad: ""J. v. Vliet Boskoop Voorganger chr. Geref. Gem."". De originele band is vlekkerig en heeft aan beide zijden goudstempels. Op de rug is naast het originele titelopschrift nog een keer de titel geschreven in later handschrift. Philippe du Plessis-Mornay 1549 - 1623 was een Frans protestants theoloog staatsman en leider van de hugenoten. Na zijn studie in Parijs diende hij onder Hendrik I van Bourbon-Condé in de Tweede Franse Godsdienstoorlog. Hij overleefde in 1572 ternauwernood de Bartholomeusnacht door naar Engeland te vluchten. Vervolgens ging Mornay werken voor Frans van Anjou en namens hem trad hij in contact met Lodewijk van Nassau over eventuele steun van de hertog aan de militaire campagnes in de Nederlanden. In 1576 trad hij in dienst van koning Hendrik van Navarra en deze zag het belang in van het slagen van de Nederlandse Opstand en leende daarom Mornay tot aan het jaar 1582 met enige regelmaat uit aan Willem van Oranje. Hij behoorde samen met Marnix Villiers en Taffin tot de naaste medewerkers van de Prins. In 1589 werd Mornay aangesteld als gouverneur van Saumur waar hij een protestantse kerk liet bouwen en in 1593 een protestantse academie oprichtte. Hij bleef in zijn activiteiten zoeken naar religieuze tolerantie en hij was betrokken bij de totstandkoming van het Edict van Nantes in 1598. Toen de vervolgingen van protestanten weer op gang kwam tijdens de regering van Lodewijk XIII van Frankrijk werd zijn gouverneurschap hem ontnomen en ging Mornay met pensioen. Hij leefde tot aan zijn dood in zijn kasteel in de Poitou. Hij schreef naast enkele vlugschriften gericht tegen Spanje ook mee aan de Apologie van Willem van Oranje in 1580.

165611982Lyon: for Ph. Borde Laur. Arnaud and Cl. II Rigaud 1656. Contemporary card boards small hole in the front panel flat spine. <p> A REMARKABLE STOCK CATALOG OF SOME TEN THOUSAND SIXTEENTH- AND SEVENTEENTH-CENTURY TITLES REPRESENTING THE COMBINED INVENTORIES OF EIGHT DOMINANT LYONESE PUBLISHERS AND BOOKSELLERS ACTIVE FROM 1555 TO 1656.<br /> Beginning in the 1620s the book trade in the France’s second city experienced dramatic consolidation through inheritance and liquidation. Philippe Borde Laurent Arnaud and Claude II Rigaud stood the principal beneficiaries. Between 1650 and 1655 they partnered to purchase the stocks of the Lyonese Giunta of Horace Cardon of Horace Boissat of the Rouillé family and of Claude Prost.<br /> The partners had to sell and this catalog clearly prepared in haste is the result. It swarms with minor errors like reversed and upside-down sorts repeated pagination errors in dates and orthography and chase marks likely arising from the rush to have it ready in time for the Lyon trade fair.<br /> The material is grouped into thirteen categories. The nine subject divisions list only Latin texts in the fields of theology Scripture councils scholastics morals controversies asceticism spirituality preaching manuals law medicine philosophy history politics and civics sciences astronomy mathematics architecture atlases cabbala the humanities grammar rhetoric ancient classics and liturgy. Four sections gather material by language — Greek Hebrew and Arabic together Italian Spanish and French — regardless of subject. In each class entries are arranged alphabetically by author and each work is identified by its author title format printing place date and number of volumes if a set. Imprints span Naples to London and Madrid to Hamburg.<br /> The present example has been marked up in manuscript. Two dozen entries have been canceled in whole or in part across eight different categories motivated in every case but two by religion. Machiavelli's dangerous political ideas and G.B. Marino’s personal immorality earned censure. Hundreds of entries have been ticked in the left margins sometimes four or five to a page. I have located one example in the U.S. Grolier Club.

Gilt dentelle. All edges gilt. Marbled endpapers. Light shelf wear. 24 439 14 pp engraved title. Inscription on first blank. Half title and engraved title soiled occasional spotting. <br> The Imitation of Christ is a handbook for spiritual life arising from the Devotio Moderna movement. The text is divided into four books which provide detailed spiritual instructions: "Helpful Counsels of the Spiritual Life" "Directives for the Interior Life" "On Interior Consolation" and "On the Blessed Sacrament". The approach taken in the Imitation is characterized by its emphasis on the interior life and withdrawal from the world as opposed to an active imitation of Christ by other friars. The book places a high level of emphasis on the devotion to the Eucharist as key element of spiritual life. Antwerp : Ex officina Plantiniana Balthasaris Moreti hardcover

It was published a total of 5 times between 1632 and 1665. "Béthune's treatise was the work of a man at the end of his career who had served the monarchy at home and abroad through the bumpy years of dynastic transition and who thanks to his longevity had witnessed the crisis of the religious wars as well as France's slow rise from the ashes thereafter. He brought to bear his wide knowledge and experience of French government but also his thorough acquaintance with Rome and Italy and both informed the political ideas he mobilised in his treatise" Reinhardt p. 56 Philippe de Béthune was a prominent figure in French politics during the late 16th and early 17th centuries. He served as a diplomat and administrator under Henri III and Henri IV with key roles in diplomatic missions to Scotland Rome and Savoy. Béthune's efforts aimed at securing peace in Italy and resolving conflicts between European powers. He remained influential in diplomatic circles particularly under the guidance of Cardinal Richelieu. Béthune's political career was marked by his dedication to diplomacy and his efforts to navigate complex European relations during a tumultuous period.
