Very rare edition
given by Felix, cardinal of Monte Alto, containing commentaries with
extracts of the Bible, sermons on the Psalms and on the viriginity, letters and funeral
orations of Theodosius the Great and Valentinian II. Ambrosius (340-397) was the bishop of
Milano, from 374 to 397, and one of the four Church Fathers. This copy belongs to the first
works printed by the "Compagnie de La Grand'Navire", a French group of printers which
published since 1586 works of the Church Fathers and on canon laws. Illustrated with some
head-pieces (one representing the Four Church Fathers in a medallion) and large vignettes
on title-pages of the "Compagnie de La Grand'Navire", figuring a large boat, symbol of
Paris, with fleur-de-lys on the sails and monograms in the center and on the front. Copy
lined with pen in a neat typography.

Very rare third edition
(1
st
ed. : Lyon, 1539) in fresh condition with neat typography. Prosper
(France, c. 390-c. 455) was the first continuator of Jerome's Universal Chronicle and even
if he was a layman he threw himself with ardour into the religion controversies defending
Augustine's doctrine. As he was a disciple of the Church Father, the majority of his works
relay his thoughts. Contains his famous reply to Cassian and letters to saint Augustine on
the necessity of Grace (God wishes all men to be saved), maxims and epigrams to guide
the Christians, etc.
