A solid, nice copy of this important book. The Venerable Louis of Granada, OP (b. 1505 d. 1588), was a Dominican friar noted as theologian, writer and preacher. The cause for his canonization has been long accepted by the Holy See (i.e. he has been declared and accepted as a SAINT by the Catholic Church). Scarce.

Louis de Grenade (Grenade, 1504 - Lisbonne, 1588) était un dominicain espagnol, écrivain et prédicateur catholique. Il grandit dans l'Alhambra de Grenade, où vivaient les Mendoza, et étudie les lettres. À dix-neuf ans, il est admis au couvent dominicain de Santa Cruz La Real, à Grenade. Il prononce ses vux en 1525, et prend le nom de religion de frère Luis de Grenade ; il se fait très vite remarquer par ses talents de prédicateur, et reçoit une formation théologique poussée : après ses études à Grenade, il est envoyé en 1529 au couvent de San Gregorio, à Valladolid. Il y fait la connaissance du frère Melchior Cano, avec lequel il aura plus tard maille à partir, mais également de l'archevêque Carranza, qui fut l'un des premiers à mettre en uvre la Contre-Réforme en Espagne.
