In 16° (cm 5,4 x 10), legatura piena pergamena coeva, pp (16), 635, 19, (2) bianche, impresa silografica al frontespizio, esemplare in buone condizioni, minuscola antica annotazione al front. (il cui inchiostro aveva perforato la carta, senza perdita di testo), ben restaurata con velina. L'A. (1550-1610), gesuita, docente di Teologia Morale a Granada, raccoglie in questo Trattato tutta la normativa relativa al matrimonio, destinata a confessori e direttori spirituali. Data la scabrosità dei soggetti trattati, e approfonditamente e esplicitamente sviscerati, l'opera fece clamore e scandalo (aspramente denigrata da Pascal, divenne spunto di polemiche tra giansenisti e gesuiti) e fu posta all'Index il 4 febbraio 1627; vi restò fino al 1900. La presente edizione riporta ancora tutte le "Approvazioni" degli Inquisitori. De Feller sottolinea che l'A. "avrebbe dovuto essere più riservato nei particolari e nelle decisioni". Tra gli argomenti: in qual modo il seme potè entrare nella Vergine Maria; se sia più peccaminoso congiungersi carnalmente con bestie morte, o vive; come stabilire quale sia il sesso prevalente negli ermafroditi, in modo da determinare se debbano contrarre matrimonio con maschi, o con femmine; ecc.; e innumerevoli minutissimi dettagli relativi ai comportamenti sessuali tra coniugi. Edizione posteriore di tre anni censita in SBN; un esemplare in COPAC. De Feller, tome 11, p 262; Sommervogel, VII, 530-537; Suppl. nn. 2280 e 5266.
