Beschreibung

1838. Second edition. xi, 430pp. John Henry Newman (1801-1890) was an English theologian, academic, intellectual, philosopher, polymath, historian, writer, scholar and poet, first as an Anglican priest and later as a Catholic priest and cardinal, who was an important and controversial figure in the religious history of England in the 19th century. He was known nationally by the mid-1830s, and was canonised as a saint in the Catholic Church in 2019. He also published many works, and the present volume, first published in 1837, results from a series of Parochial Lectures delivered on week-days. The book is bound in contemporary half-leather over marbled paper covered boards with gold titling on a leather label and four thin raised bands on the spine. The case of the book is in very good condition with shelf wear to the marbled paper on the boards and a bit of loss to the paper on the top and fore edges of the front board. There is some scuffing to the leather and light bumping to the top corners and top of the spine with some loss of colour at the spine ends. The contents are tight and clean with some foxing on the endpapers. There is no inscription. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers gVIRel24
