Encadernação do século XIX, inteira de pele marroquim castanha, com nervos e ferros decorativos a ouro na lombada e esquadrias roladas a ouro nas pastas. Cansada nos cantos e nas dianteiras das pastas. Ilustrado com um grande gravura xilográfica na página de título mostrando Satanás a atacar a Igreja Cristã. Este livro é considerado um oráculo apocalíptico sobre a Reforma da Igreja no início do século XVI, vendo-se aqui o mundo infestado por demónios em tempos perigosos. Segundo o estudo de Michael Dean Milway ( The Burden and the Beast an Oracle of Apocalyptic Reform in early sixteenth-century Salzburg ), a reforma e o apocalipse eram, neste período, uma e a mesma coisa. A visão apocalíptica foi dominante entre os sectários radicais. O anticlericalismo e mundo apocalíptico, de acordo com o autor de Onus Ecclesiae, era uma preparação para a Reforma, não só como uma manifestação de descontentamento, mas uma reacção e um prelúdio para a mesma Reforma. As palavras de admoestação na folha de rosto da obra são uma declaração belicosa com base nas declarações da Bíblia. In folio 28x19 cm. [2], 125 folios (numbered V-CXXV; i.e. total: 246 pp). Binding: late 19th century full calf, raised bands and gilt tooled at spine and at cover frames; worn out at edges and corners. Illustrated with a large woodcut on title page showing Satan attacking the Christian Church. This book is an oracle of apocalyptic reform in early 16th Century, about a demon-infested world in perilous times. After the study of Michael Dean Milway ( The Burden and the Beast an Oracle of Apocalyptic Reform in early sixteenth-century Salzburg ) the reform and apocalypse were one and the same. Apocalypticism grew deepest on the margins of society among radical sectarians. The anticlericalism and apocalyptic world in the author of Onus Ecclesiae was a preparation for reform, not only as a manifestation of discontent but a reaction and a prelude to Reformation. The watchword admonition on the title-page of Onus Ecclesiae is a bellicose statement based on the statements of Bible.
