Latin trsl. by H. Parry (1561-1616) of “Summe of the
conference betwene John Rainoldes and John Hart”
(London 1584). The present ed. is a re-issue of John
Barnes’ 1610 Oxford ed. “The practice of holding
private conferences with Catholic priests in prison
and of publishing them in support of the Protestant
cause had already been followed by William Fulke...
Subsequently, John Reynolds [1549-1607] arranged
a similar conference, with better success, with the
seminary priest John Hart (who was later received
into the Society of Jesus). His report of it, published
with Hart’s approval, went into several editions, and
was also translated into Latin – though it was not till
1610 that the translation was eventually published
by order of Archbishop Bancroft” (Milward p. 60).
Title within elaborate woodcut border. Printed
within ruled borders. Old ownership entry at top
of title (partly erased) with mention “prohibitus”.
