In Napoli per Luc’Antonio di Fusco, 1665. (mm. 203 x 153). Pergamena coeva con titolo manoscritto al dorso. pp. (24), 288, 128, 88, 176, (24). Edizione originale, adornata di una bella tavola f.t. con la genealogia da Adamo, incisa da P. Miotte. Timbro di collegio gesuita al frontespizio. legatura internamente scollata, ma non staccata. Bibl: Elisa Novi Chavarria, Sacro, pubblico e privato. Donne nei secoli XV- XVIII, pp. 24/25 “ Assai cauti nei confronti delle varie estatiche e carismatiche di cui pullulò la città di Napoli tra la fine del ‘500 e i primi decenni del ‘600, i religiosi della Compagnia privilegiarono modelli spirituali legati a culti antichi e consolidati da una lunga tradizione agiografica. Rivisitandoli alla luce dei nuovi orientamenti pastorali non solo ne valorizzavano l’autenticità, ma rafforzavano anche la propria esclusiva capacità di intermediari moltiplicando al contempo, le possibilità di ricorso dei fedeli ai luoghi di culto patrocinati dalla Compagnia. Emblematica in tal senso e la diffusione del culto di S. Anna, celebrata all’interno delle chiese e nelle strade di Napoli grazie a una moltitudine di altari, di edicole votive e nei quadri di devozione privata, nella cui immagine ben più sostanziale rispetto al passato fu il peso accordato dai Gesuiti all’educazione e ai valori del matrimonio, della maternità e della fami- glia. Di S. Anna si esaltò la figura materna, sin dalla fase del concepimento, della gravidanza e del parto, la sua capacità di trasmettere l’educazione cristiana, la profondità dei legami familiari e di solidarietà tra madre e figlia. La sua invocazione era raccomandata in particolare agli sposi e alle donne, secondo modalità in qualche modo concorrenziali alla devozione per il Rosario, patrocinata in quegli stessi anni dai Domenicani “. deantiquislibris@gmail.com 393 8246419
