Extract from an incunabulum edition of the "Opera omnia" dealing with "de pollutione
nocturna" and the way to confess young people, with onanism and also with the chastity of
ecclesiastics. Gerson is the first to be the most inflexible with boys, in particular children,
guilty of onanism. Title within a large ornamental border and illustrated with a full-page
figuring a pilgrim passing a castle completely different to the plate in the Opera edition
of 1494 attributed to Albrecht Dürer. Compare to that plate, the pilgrim in our extract is
old, he holds the coat of arms (showing the sun, moon, stars and a winged heart with the
letter "T" on it, i.e. Saint Anthony's cross (?)) in the left hand instead the right and the staff
in the right instead the left. There are also an archange added, more details and the dog
is hairy in our plate. Are added in this extract a portrait from another work and the name
"Joannis Gerson" on the first leaf, cancels correcting the foliotation and one at the colophon
specifying the end of the treatises. Gerson (1363-1429) was a renowned French theologian
named "Doctor Christianissimus" and chancellor of the University of Paris.
