Historia della sacra Inquisitione, composta gia dal R.P. Paolo [Sarpi], servita, ed hora la prima volta posta in luce. Appresso Fabio Albicocco, In Serravalle en 1638. Large 8vo (21 x 17 cm), contemporary vellum, 127 p. Ex-libris of the Luton Library. The history of the inquisition was written in 1613 at the request of the senate. It was intended to provide guidance for Venetian officials in their dealing with the Inquisition. Sarpi s writings are critical of the Catholic Church and its scholastic tradition. Although not opposed to the Inquisition as such, he stipulates that many things do not fall within the scope of the church. Like ordinary blasphemies, the delict of having two Wives, inquisitors shall not proceed against the orthodox, and the Jews, nor should the inquisition cause any prohibition of any sort of books to be printed, etc.

Store Description

Making the impossible possible. That is what I love about the antiquarian book trade. Books have had to endure the ravages of time, from mere careless handling to the burning pyres of Savonarola and modern war. Someone may ask me for a 15th century book on witchcraft or express interest in a biblical manuscript, and I have to seek out these treasures from the flea markets of Paris and alleys of Istanbul to New York Fifth Avenue apartments and the ritzy auction rooms of London.
