Each life of a martyr with vellum tab at head of page near the gutter. De Theux "Bibliographie Liegeoise" 1867 p. 24; USTC 1506992. Vellum a little grubby and with a couple of small ink stains corners slightly bumped tiny chips gone at spine ends a couple of quires a bit proud but the binding solid and retaining much of its original antique appeal. Occasional minor soiling internally isolated spots of foxing or trivial paper flaws but the text and plates otherwise very appealing the impressions of the engravings being especially rich.<br/> <br/> Written by a Walloon theologian and illustrated by an Antwerp master printer this is a very rare treatise on martyrs of the Augustinian order that was once in the library of an order of teaching nuns. These 27 hagiographies of Augustinian hermits who died for the faith were written by theologian Georges Maigret 1573-1633 prior of the Augustinian monastery in Liège. He begins with St. Evode martyred in Africa in 408 and continues up to 1610 when Blessed Illephonse and Raphael de la Madre de Dios were killed while on missions in the Philippines and Sunda Islands respectively. Other near-contemporary martyrs died closer to home like Brother Gerard Ridder who was murdered by the Huguenots in the Low Countries in 1587. A full-length portrait by Adriaen Collaert illustrates the entry for each martyr with detailed background scenery giving a sense of where these Augustinians were serving at the time of their demise. Some martyrs are shown in the midst of their execution: Boniface hangs on an X-shaped cross Philippe Aymil stands pierced through with arrows Augustin du Rosaire kneels calmly before the swordsman who will behead him. The death of others is represented allegorically as in the case of Jean Sahagoune who was poisoned: he is depicted standing atop a recumbent lion while a richly dressed woman offers him a chalice containing a snake. Collaert ca. 1560-1618 came from a family of prominent Flemish engravers in Antwerp. After training with his father Hans he became a master of the artists' Guild of St. Luke in 1580. Our volume was once owned by the Congregation of Notre Dame in Trier an order of Augustinian Canonesses dedicated to educating the daughters of the poor. The order was founded in northeastern France in 1597 and soon spread to surrounding areas. Of special interest the printing of our volume was authorized by the signature of Jean Chapeauville vicar general of Liege and Inquisitor of the Faith. As a reformer historian and theologian Chapeauville 1551-1617 was a person of considerable prominence in the church of his time. To qualify for personal manuscript authorization like this the work must have had quite a small print run and copies would have additionally been destroyed through devout use. In any case the book is almost never seen for sale today. Christian Ouwerx unknown
