Description: Antwerpen, Frederick van Metelen, 1684. Cont. full vellum, engraved titlepage: "Het Alderheyligste Concili van Trente. Gehouden onder de Pausen Paulus den III, Iulius den III ende Pius den IV door N.S.P.A. Antwerpen, By Balthasar Moretus, 1657", 436, (8)pp. Ca. 15 x 8,5 cm.Curious and very rare edition with two titlepages: one engraved, dated 1657, and one with text-titlepage (and a small title-engraving), dated 1684; with two different publishers. Probably translated by Nicolaus Stenius = Nicolaas van der Steen from Antwerp. With a description of the "Stadt Trente". Cornelius Jansenius (Cornelis Ianssz, "Doctoor in de Theologie tot Leuven") was one of the participants; extensive, very good readable text with decisions etc. taken at the Council of Trente, which have been very important for millions of people during the ages (cfr. i.a. page 301-302 about marriage and virginity!). The "Blad-wijser" is probably missing one page; a little "worm-holed" at the end; otherwise a very good copy.
