186878800México: Imprenta de José M. Lara 1868. Some chipping in lower front spine o/w very good copy. 15.5cm. Dedicado a los Socios del culto perpetuo de Sr. San Jose x118p frontis pict. wrps Frontis lithography by Iriarte. The author was the famous archbishop of Rio de La Plata. b. 1727 Aragon Spain. Su nombre es José Antonio por parte de su padre se apellida Campos y por parte de su madre Julián. He was part of the Orden de los Frailes Carmelitas. His first work was published in 1766 in Spain by Francisco Medina. He arrived in Buenos Aires and was appointed archbishop of the Rio de la Plata in 1780. Eximio teólogo escritor consumado se estilo sencillo fluido elegante y de conceptos claros. Conocedor profundo de la teología manejaba igualmente las Sagradas Escrituras los Santos Padres los autores profanos y clásicos. Muestra de ello son las Pastorales que en diferentes ocasiones y con varios motivos publicó para edificación de sus fieles para el arreglo y dirección de su diócesis. El Virrey Vértiz proyectaba ya desde 1781 la edición de sus Pastorales por cuenta del Erario en la imprenta de Niños Expósitos; si bien este proyecto no se concretó Vértiz las difundió profusamente " haciendo encuadernar más de trescientos volúmenes de las mismas con destino sin duda a las oficinas y empleados públicos de la colonia y de la metrópoli. En los pocos años que duró su gobierno realizó una obra fecundísima. investía y su propósito de consagrar al cumplimiento de las mismas" todos los talentos de su inteligencia todas las energías de su voluntad y todas las fuerzas de su cuerpo". Propuso al Cabildo municipal su pensamiento de establecer un Colegio de Niñas Huérfanas; esta idea se vio concretada cuando el 21 de abril de 1782 se inauguró el mencionado instituto. Urgía también la terminación de las obras de la catedral iniciadas un siglo antes por el Obispo Mercadillo. Antes de ausentarse de Córdoba hacia su nuevo destino el Alto Perú logró terminar alhajar y consagrar la Catedral el 29 de abril de 1785. A su paso por Catamarca en 1786 fundó el edificio para Casa y Colegio de Huérfanas de dicha ciudad. La actividad que desplegó como Arzobispo de La Plata fue similar a la realizada en Córdoba. Falleció en la nombrada ciudad de La Plata hoy Sucre República de Bolivia el 25 de marzo de 1804. De él dice Angel Clavero: "San Alberto era un Obispo de celo ardiente un gobernante de exquisita prudencia un hombre que tenía clara visión del porvenir un milagro de actividad un varón preocupado por el bien espiritual y material de sus subordinados un sacerdote según el corazón de Dios un patriota sincero y un religioso manso y dulce". Doña Purificación Gato Castaño que realizó su tesis doctoral sobre el mismo personaje ha recopilado las obras de fray Antonio de San Alberto repartidas entre Argentina y Bolivia y las ha encasillado en cuatro bloques fundamentales: de carácter religioso-moral político pedagógico y de disciplina eclesiástica. Según la autora "merece la pena publicar todo ese material por una parte por ser ésta una forma de dar a conocer ese tramo de historia que nos es común con Hispanoamérica por tratarse de unos escritos que exponen una serie de proyectos educativos en gran parte desconocidos sobre todo en España y por tratarse de un material que al estar tan disperso en lugares tan distintos y tan distantes no fácilmente accesibles no están al alcance de cualquiera". Armando Sejas pondera por su parte en "Presentación del arzobispo San Alberto como pastor y educador del pueblo" la labor educativa y pastoral de José Antonio de San Alberto el fraile carmelita descalzo que a fines del período indiano propone una formación sacerdotal continua espiritual y pedagógica en Charcas donde fue arzobispo entre 1785 y 1804. En ese lapso San Alberto funda el convictorio de Oratorianos el colegio de Niñas Huérfanas de la Plata y otro colegio en Catamarca. También escribe numerosas cartas pastorales y diversos textos porque a su juicio las palabras en las cartas y los libros "son más permanentes y por lo mismo tal vez más vivas y más eficaces que las dichas en el púlpito para persuadir mover y conmover los corazones".

Bird & Bull Press. 8vo. quarter leather over cloth covered boards leather label on spine. 131 pages. First edition. Limited to 140 numbered copies. There was a time when book collecting was big news. In the first half of the twentieth century some of America's leading financiers executives and philanthropists played "this book-collecting game" as A. Edward Newton called it and competed with each other for the finest books and manuscripts in the world. Their booksellers were no less newsworthy and one of the most astute knowledgeable and flamboyant of them all was Dr. A.S.W. Rosenbach of Philadelphia. Dr. R. as the press liked to call him helped to build some of America's greatest collections and his own library assembled from the treasures that he took home for himself rather than put into his stock still draws visitors and researchers from around the world. Dr. Rosenbach and Mr. Lilly: Book Collecting in a Golden Age is the story of one collector Josiah Kirby Lilly Jr. of Indianapolis and the books and manuscripts that he bought from Dr. Rosenbach. The story is told through the many letters that they exchanged and through the descriptions and illustrations of the books and manuscripts themselves. Though this book is the story of only one collector and bookseller it is also a microcosm of a great age of book collecting in which choices were made by booksellers and collectors alike that shaped the contents of some of the greatest research libraries of our own day.
