77p plus plates. A hardcover book bound in original gilt-decorated cloth. POOR CONDITION. Covers detached and edges heavily worn; however, block of pages remains tightly bound in itself. Pages browned with age. Scattered pencil underlining in text. A damaged but readable copy, OFFERED AS-IS. An anti-Catholic work satirically presenting monks as inhuman, animal-like pests, as if to scientifically study them as a "species." Illustrated with cartoonish, unflattering drawings of the monks of various religious orders. The author was a prominent mineralogist in 18th-century Vienna, as well as an active Freemason who embraced the anticlericalism of the Enlightenment. N° de réf. du vendeur 325214
