Description from the seller
Discours on Universal History by Monsignor Jacopo Benigno Bossuet
Bishop of Meaux
Naples, Minerva Sebezia Establishment, 1841
A quarto volume of 486 pages, (2)
Contemporary binding in half-leather with marbled boards and a dark leather spine decorated with friezes and gold titles. Good condition, showing wear to the binding (corners and edges worn) but the interior fresh and solid.
Renowned work by the great French prelate and orator, originally dedicated to the Dauphin of France. Bossuet traces humanity’s history with the aim of illustrating divine providence through the fortunes of peoples, empires, and religion, from creation to modern times.
Naples edition of the nineteenth century, highly valued for its diffusion in Italian culture of the 1800s.
A classic of Catholic historiography, perfect for collections of history, theology, and rare books.
