About this Item
FIRST EDITION, [1], 502pp., a pirated edition (the printer's device is not the more usual armillary sphere image), contemporary vellum over boards, manuscript title to spine, speckled edges, 12mo, Cologne, Pierre Martineau, 1693 First Edition, published at the imaginary address of Pierre Marteau. The historical account of the Catholic inquisition was placed on the Vatican s prohibited book list in 1694. Jacques Marsollier (1647-1724), a French historian and Genevievian Abbot, studied the Inquisition, including censorship. Marsollier establishes the history almost exclusively from Philipp Limborch s Historia Inquisitionis which was published a year earlier. He also references L histoire ecclésiastique by Dupin and Le voyage by Dellon. [USTC:2584009; Caillet III]. Seller Inventory # 6550
