Description from the seller
Very rare edition of this important collection of Catholic sermons by Johannes Eck (1486–1543), the principal intellectual opponent of Luther and the Protestant Reformation. These texts were written to provide Catholic priests with doctrinal and homiletic tools to defend the traditional faith and counter the theses of Martin Luther and other reformers of the time. See VD16
Available only the Tome II (of 2), dedicated to the period from Easter to Advent.
