She is called the "mother of the Capuchins." <br> The House of Waldstein is a Czech noble family that received prominent state and civil positions beginning in the 17th century. It was one of the first among the Bohemian nobility to be promoted to Graf count in 1628 and two years later to the imperial court. Its most famous members include General Albrecht von Wallenstein and statesman Ferdinand Gabriel von Waldstein the patron of Ludwig van Beethoven. <br><br> The Order of the Capuchin Friars Minor is an Order of friars in the Catholic Church one of the chief offshoots of the Franciscan Order. The Order began in 1520 when Matteo da Bascio an Observant Franciscan friar said he had been inspired by God with the idea of that the manner of life led by the Franciscans at the time was not in keeping with their found St. Francis of Assisi had envisioned. He created the Capuchin Order to return to the primitive way of life solitude and penance as practiced by St. Francis. The name of their order comes from the Cappuccio a hood worn by the Camaldolese monks in gratitude for refuge given by the monks in the initial years of the order. <br><br> Dr. Johann August Wilhelm Neander 1789-1850 was a German theologian and church historian. Originally born into a Jewish family he changed his name to Neander when he became a Christian in 1806. A German Lutheran he studied with F D. Schleiermacher 1768-1834 in Berlin but soon switched his interest from speculative theology to church history. <br> His General History of the Christian Religion and Church Allgemeine Geschichte der christlichen Religion und Kirche remains the greatest monument of his genius. In this Neander's chief aim was everywhere to understand what was individual in history. In the principal figures of ecclesiastical history he tried to depict the representative tendencies of each age and also the types of the essential tendencies of human nature generally. His guiding principle in dealing both with the history and with the present condition of the church was "that Christianity has room for the various tendencies of human nature and aims at permeating and glorifying them all; that according to the divine plan these various tendencies are to occur successively and simultaneously and to counterbalance each other so that the freedom and variety of the development of the spiritual life ought not to be forced into a single dogmatic form" Otto Pfleiderer. <br> Neander had considerable influence not only in his own church and country but also further afield through the combination of scholarly excellence and personal interest that he achieved in his teaching and writing. Neander believed that church history is not just an academic pursuit but part of the mission and ministry of the church. <br><br>The Congregation of St. Maur often known as the Maurists were a congregation of French Benedictines established in 1621 and known for their high level of scholarship. The congregation and its members were called after Saint Maurus died 565 a disciple of Saint Benedict credited with introducing the Benedictine rule and life into Gaul. <br>The primary idea of the movement was not the undertaking of literary and historical work but the return to a strict monastic regime and the faithful carrying out of Benedictine life. <br>Their historical and critical school produced a number of works of scholarship which still are of permanent value. The foundations of this school were laid by Dom Tarisse the first superior-general who in 1632 issued instructions to the superiors of the monasteries to train the young monks in the habits of research and of organized work. The output was prodigious coming from a single society. The qualities that have made Maurist work proverbial for learning are its critical tact and its thoroughness. <br><br> Pope Gregory I Latin: Gregorius I; c. 540 - 12 March 604 commonly known as Saint Gregory the Great was Pope from 3 September 590 to his death in 604. Gregory is well known for his writings which were more prolific than those of any of his predecessors as pope. He is also known as St. Gregory the Dialogist in Eastern Orthodoxy because of his Dialogues. For this reason English translations of Orthodox texts will sometimes list him as Gregory Dialogus. <br> Throughout the Middle Ages he was known as the Father of Christian Worship because of his exceptional efforts in revising the Roman worship of his day. His contributions to the development of the Divine Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts still in use in the Eastern Orthodox Church were so significant that he is generally recognized as its de facto author. <br> The Protestant reformer John Calvin admired Gregory and declared in his Institutes that Gregory was the last good pope. He is the patron saint of musicians singers students and teachers. The mainstream form of Western plainchant standardized in the late 9th century was attributed to Pope Gregory I and so took the name of Gregorian chant. <br> Gregory is commonly credited with founding the medieval papacy and so many attribute the beginning of medieval spirituality to him. Gregory is the only Pope between the fifth and the eleventh centuries whose correspondence and writings have survived enough to form a comprehensive corpus. GREGORIUS I MAGNUS 540-604.

Binding: Contemporary full paper boards expertly rebacked; raised spine with five 5 bands black ink title on vellum label on two; central black fleur de lis design on four. Notes: Provenance: Upper pasted endpaper with owner’s armorial bookplate: “Watkin Williams Esq of Penbedw // in the County of Denbighâ€. Concerning this name Archaeologia Cambrensis states: “1789. Watkin Williams Esq. of Penbedw in the county of Denbigh but owner of property in the parishes of Mallwyd and Llan-y-mowddwy in the county of Merioneth M.P. first for Montgomeryshire and afterwards during nearly thirty years for the Flint contributary boroughs was appointed lieutenant and custos rotulorum for Merionethshire.†Final free endpaper watermarked. <br>This edition of this Canadiana publication is unique in that we are not able to locate another copy of the same anywhere. The second last paragraph of the introduction to the priests clergy and missionaries in this edition states that this publication encloses at the end of the first part or 'Rituel' a second part entitled 'les Statuts Ordonnances & Mandemens.' instructions prepared at various times by the Church for the conduct of all including those entrusted to the clergy that these instructions may not be ignored. The recipient are advised that they are restatements of instructions previously given to be read often just as such given in the Ritual itself; they are to be followed with precisions including all the rules contained not to be lost sight of observed faithfully in all works and ones conduct. The inclusion of this paragraph is unlike the introduction of another edition published at the same time and same location but not including this paragraph or the 'Statuts.'. <br>The present work describing festivals sacraments statutes and ordinances for the use by priests in Quebec is extremely rare and was immediately followed by a second edition published the same year: Gagnon reports that in a copy of the second edition of 1703 now at the Laval University library and previously owned by Abbé Plante a note says that the first edition “would have been almost completely destroyed by the sinking of the ship …carrying it to Canada and for this reason a second edition was immediately made.†<br>On the “privilege†included as the final leaf in our first edition example it is stated that the work was registered on March 30 1703 and completed for print for the first time on March 31 1703; <br><br>Saint-Valier was a supporter of the Counter Reformation. His initial intent in the New World was to engage in the conversion of the indigenous residents. He introduced Jesuits and Recollects in an attempt to evangelize New France. Many of these missions Illinois Louisiana and Mississippi resulted in conflicts between Bishop Saint-Vallier the Jesuits and the seminary of Quebec.<br><br>His various construction projects reflect a desire to restore and renew the authority in the Catholic Church as the main institution of administrative organization. In 1697 Saint-Valier built a palace in Quebec for his clergy and as a place of hospitality. During the same year he also established a nuns monastery in Trois-Rivières Saint-Vallier’s zeal for religious activities and establishments stretched from Quebec Montreal Acadia and Louisiana. His way of life embodied that of the ideals of the Council of Trent.<br><br>The Diocese of Quebec was vast and its population diverse and widespread. It included the whole of French North America or what was called New France divided in seven colonies: Newfoundland Acadia ÃŽle Royale Louisiana Illinois Upper Country and Canada inhabited by Indigenous people and the European settlers. During the tenure of Saint-Vallier immigration from France was mostly over; the European colonists were farmers fishermen sailors merchants and ‘coureurs des bois’ overseen by a small elite of aristocratic leaders but a great demographic explosion occurred between 1685 and 1730 the white population in New France jumping from c. 12000 inhabitants to c. 41500.<br><br>During the same time the number of Amerindian fell from c. 163500 to c. 61500. That loss mainly in the tribes of Louisiana was attributed to warfare and diseases brought to the valley of the Mississippi. The number of Aboriginals compared to white settlers is one reason for the presence of so many religious orders in New France. The missions and conversions to Christianity were deemed very important.<br><br>Priests of the Missions Étrangères of Paris the Jesuits the Recollets and the Sulpicians often worked in collaboration with the nuns from different orders like the Congrégation de Notre-Dame or the Canonesses of St. Augustine of the Mercy of Jesus at l’Hôtel-Dieu de Québec. The arrival of Saint-Vallier and his strong views on what should be the duties of the priests created a shock wave in the orders especially for the Seminary of Quebec newly founded by his predecessor Bishop Laval. … Saint-Vallier's tenure as bishop was defined by interminable quarrels with governmental and religious institutions in French North America. … his active leadership style brought him into conflict with various groups who perceived him as at times domineering and micromanaging.<br>While subject to much criticism Saint-Vallier was also admired in his diocese for his dedication and self-sacrifice. Rather than staying in Quebec or Montreal he tirelessly traveled the back-country. The founding of the Hôpital Général and installation of Jesuits and Recollets at Montreal were also to his credit.<br><br>There was a very strong suspicion in the colonies and in France that the Bishop of Quebec was in fact a follower of Jansenism. . In the beginning of the 18th century the Bishop wrote 3 books; the Ritual the Catechism and the ‘Statuts et ordonnances’ – two of which are bound in the present volume. <br>…the Superior of the jesuite order decided to attack Saint-Vallier’s authority by writing a long critic of those three books seeing them as a "lapse into Arianism Pelagianism Jansenism Lutheranism and Calvinism". Father Bouvart based his accusations on different passages of the works of the Bishop … who eventually appealed to the Sorbonne to have his works rehabilitated. The doctors of the Faculty of Theology declared the Ritual and the Catechism perfectly orthodox and censured the critic of Bouvart. Nevertheless Saint-Vallier decided to re-edit in 1713 the Ritual so as to cast away all doubts about his pretended Jansenist ideas. This book remained in use in the parishes until the middle of the 19th century. The present work is the unedited original and first edition of his ritual and statuts. <br><br>The disputes with the religious orders of New France the government and the merchants gave way to a more peaceful period that lasted until his death. Austere throughout his life he became more and more humble in his way of living and turned toward contemplation and simple duties. .He also took very seriously his duties of Bishop and developed parishes in the farthest corners of the diocese.<br><br> Size: Octavo 213 x133mm.

Clean unmarked pages. <br><br> Francois Boissier de Sauvages de Lacroix May 12 1706 - February 19 1767 was a French physician and botanist who was a native of Als. He was a good friend to famed Swedish naturalist Carl von Linn 1707-1778 to whom Sauvages de Lacroix sent botanical specimens from southern France for study and classification. Linn designated the genus Sauvagesia from the family of Ochnaceae in honor of his French colleague and in 1748 he was elected a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences of which Linn had been a co-founder. The following year he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society. As a physician Sauvages de Lacroix is credited with establishing the first methodical nosology for diseases. His classification was based on the framework created by Thomas Sydenham 1624-1689 and was in accordance with the methodology used by botanists. His classification system listed 10 major classes of disease which were further broken down into 44 orders 315 genera and 2400 species individual diseases. This system is explained in his 1763 treatise Nosologia Methodica which was an inspiration to Philippe Pinel 1745-1826 and his early work with mental illnesses.

Pictorial wood-engraved ex-libris by Leo Wyatt for Lord Norwich on front pastedown. <br/><br/>Sauvages major nosological treatise after Sydenham. François Boissier de Sauvages wrote this comprehensive symptom-based classification called Nosology after the science that deals with the systematic classification of diseases. The author a professor of medicine and botany at Montpellier presents clinical cases classified according to the methods of Thomas Sydenham considering mainly the symptoms and the morphology of the disease and showing much more interest in the diagnosis of disease and for its care. The beginnings of the systematic model in medicine appear early in the writings of Sydenham. A friend of Locke and admirer of Francis Bacon Sydenham called for the setting aside of hypotheses and philosophical systems in favor of a natural description or history of all diseases. He took the significant step of asserting that as there were species of plants so too there were species of disease. This implied that diseases were distinct entities not merely disturbances blending into one another and that these distinct entities could be systematically grouped or classified. This Sauvages magnum opus arranged its objects in classes orders and genera as well as species. Like Sydenham Sauvages distrusted contemporary physiological theories and rejected the idea that a classification of diseases could be based on knowledge of their underlying causes. He insisted that classification be based instead on study of directly observable symptoms. Species definition depended largely on designation of the various circumstances in which symptoms might appear. Species proliferated accordingly finally reaching 2400 divided into 315 genera 44 orders and 10 classes. Sauvages and his contemporary Carl Linnaeus set the pattern for the nosology of the latter 18th century. There is a clustering of nosological treatises in the 1760s and 1770s. Vogel published at Göttingen in 1764; Cullen at Edinburgh in 1772; Macbride at Dublin in 1775; Sagar at Vienna in 1776; and Vitel at Lyons in 1778. All followed Sauvages in departing from Sydenhams original emphasis within the systematic program. Rather than seeking new more accurate descriptions of disease the nosologists of the latter 18th century took existing descriptions and tried to catalogue and group them usually on the basis of symptoms.
