LEUTBREWER, Christoph, O.F.M.
- Gulde biecht-konste,
om op den tydt van min als twee uren sich te bereyden tot een generale biechte van heel syn leven/
sonder peryckel van eenighe doodt-sonden achter te laten (…) [trsl. from the Latin Daniel a Virgine
Maria O.Carm.]. Brussels, Jan (II) Mommaert, 1653, 12mo, contemp. overl. vellum (sl. soiled), flat
spine, [76] ff., with movable parts. Good copy.
€ 100/200
Later Mommaert ed. (first 1647) of a confession manual, trsl. into Dutch by Daniel a Virgine
Maria (1615-1678), provincial of the Belgian Carmelites. Part of the book consists of a systematic
catalogue of sins. By a simple but efficient procedure of
movable parts
it was possible to indicate
one’s sins without naming them: each entry was partly cut loose in such a way that one could
make a fold in the relevant slips of paper, hand it over to the priest who then stretched the slips flat
again. The last part of the book consists of a set of appropriate prayers. Ill. with
2 engr. ills.
Gothic
type within border of type ornaments. Stamp. Ownership entry on flyleaf.
