Description

Three works bound in a single volume by the Dominican Luis de Grenada, Spanish thinker and preacher (Granada 1504 - Lisbon 1588) published by Gabriele Giolito de' Ferrari, an example of typographic art with its light and elegant characters and the engravings that accompany the text with cartoons, headers and drop caps. On the title pages, the famous typographical brand with the phoenix rising from the flames and the motto "Semper eadem". The publication of these devotional texts testifies to the change in Giolito's editorial policy in the post-Tridentine climate of the counter-reformation: having abandoned the contemporary works of literature in the vernacular, the typography devoted itself essentially to devotional works, above all in the vernacular, and to the translation of the Greek and Latin classics. Our three works represent the eighth, ninth and tenth volume of a sort of series of ascetic and preaching writings called "Spiritual Garland" intended for the general public of devotees, inaugurated in 1568 with a book by Luis de Granada.
