Henrici Valessi (Henri Valois) (1603-1677), was a 17th-century French philologist and scholar, known in classical and ecclesiastical circles as Henricus Valesius. He was not strictly a theologian in the sense of creating original theological works, but rather a scholar focused on classical and ecclesiastical history, editing and publishing ancient ecclesiastical historians and texts. His important contributions include editing and translating works by early ecclesiastical historians such as Eusebius of Caesarea and Socrates of Constantinople (which are found here). 38cm x 27cm

Henrici Valessi (Henri Valois) (1603-1677), est un philologue et érudit français du XVIIe siècle, connu dans les milieux classiques et ecclésiastiques sous le nom de Henricus Valesius. Il n'était pas à proprement parler un théologien au sens où il créait des ouvrages théologiques originaux, mais plutôt un érudit spécialisé dans l'histoire classique et ecclésiastique, qui éditait et publiait d'anciens historiens et textes ecclésiastiques. Parmi ses contributions importantes, on peut citer l'édition et la traduction d'ouvrages d'historiens ecclésiastiques anciens tels qu'Eusèbe de Césarée et Socrate de Constantinople (que l'on peut trouver ici).

    Paris / Parisiis: Sumptibus P. Lethielleux, 1909. reprint edition of this compendium. Text in Latin. Half buckram binding with marbled boards. Some rubbing to the boards and a shelf label to the bottom of the spine. No titles to the spine. Slight weakness of the binding to the title page, but still holding securely. Internally sound throughout with a moderated darkening to the pages. xvi, 742 pages. This is the abridged, one-volume version of Rudolf Cornely's massive multi-volume introduction to Scripture, originally part of his larger Historica et Critica Introductio in Utriusque Testamenti Libros Sacros (published across several tomes between 1885–1897) — itself the introduction section of the Cursus Scripturae Sacrae, a huge Catholic biblical encyclopedia Cornely helped plan and largely wrote while teaching exegesis at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome. The Compendium (first published around 1889/1900, with the title sometimes given as Introductionis in S. Scripturae Libros Compendium) was created to condense that sprawling scholarly work into a manageable textbook for seminarians and students, since the full multi-volume set was too large for classroom use. Like the parent work, the Compendium is divided into: Introductio generalis (general introduction) — covering the canon of Scripture, the history and transmission of the biblical text, translations and versions (Septuagint, Vulgate, etc.), the doctrine of biblical inspiration and inerrancy, and principles of interpretation/ hermeneutics. Introductio specialis (special introduction) — book-by-book treatment of the Old and New Testament writings, discussing authorship, date, sources, original language, integrity, and historical/critical questions specific to each book. 240 by 160mm (9½ by 6¼ inches). Réédition de ce recueil. Texte en latin. Reliure demi-buckram avec plats marbrés. Quelques traces d'usure sur les plats et une étiquette de rayonnage au bas du dos. Pas de titre sur le dos. Légère fragilité de la reliure au niveau de la page de titre, mais celle-ci tient toujours solidement. L'intérieur est en bon état dans l'ensemble, avec un léger jaunissement des pages. xvi, 742 pages. Il s'agit de la version abrégée en un seul volume de l'imposante introduction en plusieurs volumes aux Écritures de Rudolf Cornely, qui faisait à l'origine partie de son ouvrage plus vaste intitulé *Historica et Critica Introductio in Utriusque Testamenti Libros Sacros* (publié en plusieurs tomes entre 1885 et 1897) — qui constituait elle-même la section « introduction » du *Cursus Scripturae Sacrae*, une immense encyclopédie biblique catholique que Cornely a contribué à concevoir et qu'il a en grande partie rédigée alors qu'il enseignait l'exégèse à l'Université pontificale grégorienne de Rome. Le Compendium (publié pour la première fois vers 1889/1900, sous le titre parfois donné d'*Introductionis in S. Scripturae Libros Compendium*) a été conçu pour condenser cet ouvrage savant tentaculaire en un manuel maniable destiné aux séminaristes et aux étudiants, l'ensemble complet en plusieurs volumes étant trop volumineux pour être utilisé en classe. À l'instar de l'ouvrage d'origine, le Compendium est divisé en : Introductio generalis (introduction générale) — traitant du canon des Écritures, de l'histoire et de la transmission du texte biblique, des traductions et versions (Septante, Vulgate, etc.), de la doctrine de l'inspiration et de l'inerrance bibliques, ainsi que des principes d'interprétation et d'herméneutique. Introductio specialis (introduction particulière) — qui traite, livre par livre, des écrits de l'Ancien et du Nouveau Testament, en abordant la paternité, la date, les sources, la langue originale, l'intégrité et les questions historiques et critiques propres à chaque livre. 240 × 160 mm (9½ × 6¼ pouces).

Each homily has its own title page and date. These were obviously printed as separate homilies and bound together here. Text in French. Vol 1. 1707 4th Edition. This volume has had damage to the bottom edge (looks as if perhaps mice before binding or similar?). As a result, the text block has been shaved to the base (not affecting text). This has resulted in the book being 2.5 cm shorter than the other two volumes. Contains Homily I (Pour le Second Dimanche de L'Avent sur la Correction Fraternelle); XXII; (Pour le premier jour de L'an), XXVI; (pour le Troisieme Dimanche apres L'Epiphanie sur le Lepreux et le Paralytique), XI; (pour les quatrieme Dimanche apres L'epiphanie), XXXVI; XXXVII; XXXVII (pour le cinquieme Dimanche d'apres L'Epiphanie sur le Bon Grain - 3 homilies); XXXIX (pour le vi Dimanche D'Apres L'Epiphanie, sur le grain de Seneve); XXII (Le Septuagesime & part 2); XXVII (de la Sexagesime sur le Deluge); XXXI (la Sexagesime su le juste Abel); II (Quinquagesime sur L'Aveugle de Jericho) 26, 44, 50, [i], 46, 56, 59, 54, [i], 58, 66, 50, 48, 50, 36 pp. 23.5 cm x 19 cm. Vol 2. 1710. This volume is the 3rd Edition. The front end paper has had the top 3 cm neatly cut away (seems to have been removing an ownership signature).

Contains: Homilie XIII (Quinquagesime sur la voye large et la voye etroite) XXXIII (Du caresme sur la Cananee); XXXV, (De Careme dur L'Enfant Prodigue); XXIV (Le jeudy de la seconde semaine de careme sur le mauvaisriche); III (le quatrieme dimanche de Careme sur le miracle de cinq pains); XXXII (le quatrieme dimanche de Caresme sur la Samaritaine); XXX (Sur la patience de Job); XIV (Sur la Passion de Jesus-Christ notre seigneur); XV (Second Dimanche d'apres pasques sur le bon pasteur - second edition); XVI (sur le juste afflige); IV (Dimanche des Rogations sur la Priere - 3rd edition); XXVIII (le Dimanche dans L'Octave du Saint Sacrement sur la viellesse); XXV (Sur la brebis egaree); 52, 52, 66, 52, 48. 64, 66, 64, 46, 44, 48, 56, 47 [i] pp. 26 cm x 19 cm.

Chaque homélie a sa propre page de titre et sa propre date. Celles-ci ont évidemment été imprimées sous forme d'homélies séparées et reliées ensemble ici. Texte en français. Vol 1. 1707 4e édition. Ce volume a eu des dommages sur le bord inférieur (on dirait peut-être des souris avant la reliure ou similaire ?). En conséquence, le bloc de texte a été rasé jusqu'à la base (n'affectant pas le texte). Le livre est donc plus court de 2,5 cm que les deux autres volumes.

There are also references to The Glossop Estate, and settlements in 1841. An annuity to Dr Sandon and his wife is mentioned, as is a re-settlement agreed on the date of the Duke of Surrey's marriage. Full contemporary straight grain dark red morocco, gilt lettered 'Miscellaneous' on the upper cover. Slight wear to the head of the spine, and lacks the clasp. It bears the engraved stationers' label of Bebbington's Bath Paper Warehouse, 426, Strand. 120 mm x 190 mm. Henry Charles Howard and his father were Roman Catholics, although his mother Lady Elizabeth Belasyse was Anglican. It is not clear if Howard was formally and nominally raised Anglican, or if he was already Catholic when he married into a prominent Whig (and therefore anti-Catholic) family in 1814. In 1829, after Catholic emancipation, the Earl of Surrey (as he now was) was elected a Member of Parliament. In 1839
    his son, Henry Granville Fitzalan, Fourteenth Duke of Norfolk, married Augusta Lyons, the daughter of Admiral
    Sir Edmund (afterwards Lord) Lyons, the ambassador at Athens. This necessitated a revision of his father's inheritance provisions.

    First Latin edition of this polemic, originally published in French in 1610 under the title "Institution catholique". The author Pierre Coton (1564 - 1626) was a French Jesuit, friend and confessor of the French King Henry IV and his son, who later became King Louis XIII. After the assassination of Henry IV in 1610, Coton was often the victim of polemics and attacks, who blamed the regicide on the Jesuits. His name went down in history in the form of a quip: "The king has cotton in his ears!" Having become, thanks to the protection of Marie de Medici, the confessor of the young Louis XIII, he remained influential until his disgrace, linked to the coup de force of the young king against the Concini in 1617.

    Première édition latine de cette polémique, originellement publiée en français en 1610 sous le titre
    "Institution catholique". L'auteur Pierre Coton (1564 - 1626) était un jésuite français, ami et confesseur du roi français Henri IV et de son fils, qui devint plus tard le roi Louis XIII. Après l'assassinat d'Henri IV en 1610, Coton fut souvent victime de polémiques et d'attaques, qui imputaient le régicide aux Jésuites. Son nom est entré dans l'histoire sous la forme d'une boutade : "Le roi a du coton dans les oreilles !". Devenu, grâce à la protection de Marie de Médicis, le confesseur du jeune Louis XIII, il reste influent jusqu'à sa disgrâce, liée au coup de force du jeune roi contre les Concini en 1617.
