About This Item
FIRST EDITION. 12mo,. bound in full havanan speckled calf, smooth back decorated with golden fillets and florins, title piece, red slices (binding of the time), XXVI + 588 pp. An excellent copy. Original edition of this anonymous charge against the Society of Jesus, proposing to expose "the seditious doctrine of the Jesuits that authorizes attacks on the sacred person of kings. The author trumps up a global conspiracy theory in which Jesuits murdered kings and emperors, including an organized plot to kill King Henry IV and the execution of Emperor Kangxi of China by missionaries. The text systematically moves from one country to the next, reporting on the supposed crimes that Jesuit residents or visitors committed there: seduction, fraud, homicide, theft & libel. Bibliotheca Brasiliense, 1316; see Goldsmiths' -Kress, 9442.
