In-8°, 135 pp, antiporta calcografica illustrata da L. Banzo, ai piatti legatura in pelle alle armi di papa Pio IX con stemma centrale entro doppia cornice riccamente decorata, titolo in oro al dorso, tagli in oro. Buona copia. Prima edizione. La vita di questo avventuroso missionario portoghese (João de Brito) viene descritta da padre Boero, gesuita che dedicò molta parte della sua vita alla compilazione delle biografie di martiri missionari con uno stile che travalica definitivamente l’agiografia barocca e trionfalista. I suoi lavori sono importanti anche per la descrizione dei luoghi in cui si svolge l’operato del padre missionario. João de Brito svolse il suo ministero in India, nella provincia del Marava, dove ritornò dopo esserne stato cacciato. Venuto in insanabile contrasto con il principe locale, subì il martirio a Oriyur il 4 febbraio 1693. Fu beatificato da Pio IX nel 1859 e canonizzato da Pio XII nel 1947. In-8 °, 135 pp, chalcographic frontispiece engraved by L. Banzo, calf covers with the coat of arms of Pope Pius IX with central coat of arms within a richly decorated double frame, gilt title on the back, gilt edges. Good copy. First edition. The life of this adventurous Portuguese missionary (João de Brito) is described by Father Boero, a Jesuit who devoted much of his life to compiling the biographies of missionary martyrs with a style that definitively goes beyond Baroque and triumphalist hagiography. His works are also important for the description of the places where the missionary father's work takes place. João de Brito carried out his ministry in India, in the province of Marava, where he returned after being expelled. Coming into irremediable conflict with the local prince, he suffered martyrdom in Oriyur on February 4, 1693. He was beatified by Pius IX in 1859 and canonized by Pius XII in 1947.
