About This Item
Full limp vellum. Owner's inscription to title page. Lacking ties, otherwise an exceptional crisp copy from the library of a prominent Ohio Rabbi. First published in Portuguese in a Lisbon imprint of 1626, this is the first Spanish language edition. A vitriolic attack on Iberian Jews who had converted to Christianity that they might remain in their homes following Ferdinand & Isabella's Alhambra Decree. Matos questions their faithfulness (amongst other accusations) & calls for their immediate expulsion. The book has the usual royal authorizations & licenses. In this edition the author's original prologue is preceded by one of the translator ("Prólogo del auctor, al lector")
14.5 X 19.2 cm. 237, [xx]
