AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Roberto Bellarmino - In Omnes Psalmos - 1628. Valuable Venetian edition of 1628.
The work of the Grand Inquisitor by Giordano Bruno

Description
I am selling a fascinating antique edition from 1628 of the work "In Omnes Psalmos Dilucida Explanatio" (Clear Explanation of All the Psalms). In very good condition (Note: slight writing damages and a small tear in one of the first pages, both visible in the photos).

The author and the historical context The author is Cardinal Roberto Bellarmino (S.J.), one of the most powerful and intellectually significant figures of the Counter-Reformation. Bellarmino is known in history for his crucial role in the Inquisition Tribunal: it was he who conducted the trial and interrogated Giordano Bruno, who was later sentenced to death by burning in 1600. It was also Bellarmino who, years later, delivered the first formal warning to Galileo Galilei.

Owning this book means holding in your hands a piece of history written by the mind that defined Catholic orthodoxy during one of the most turbulent periods in European history.
