A propos de cet article

This 1688 Paris handbook offers a concise yet authoritative guide to the procedures of the Roman Curia as applied to French ecclesiastical beneficesâ"a core administrative concern in the late seventeenth century, when relations between Rome and the Gallican Church were marked by tension, negotiation, and competing claims of jurisdiction. Printed by Charles de Sercy, one of Parisâs leading law printers, the volume distills the practical steps, signatures, and formalities required for securing provisions, resignations, and dispensations from Rome, offering a vivid window into how French ecclesiastics navigated the bureaucracy of the Holy See. The workâs significance lies in its dual authorship: Perard Castel, avocat au Parlement and Grand Conseil, and Guillaume Noyer, a royal conseiller and experienced Curial banker-expeditionnaire. Their combined expertise yields a text that blends legal precision with practical instruction, making it an essential artifact for understanding the administrative and financial machinery of benefice distribution in Ancien RÃ gime France. Surviving in a handsome contemporary mottled calf binding with richly gilt spine compartments, this example retains the decorative printed signatures typical of Curial forms, a charming feature that underscores its administrative origins. Complete and clean internally, it stands out among surviving copies, which often appear heavily worn due to professional use. Scarce in commerce and held by relatively few institutions worldwide, this volume is particularly relevant for collections in French legal history, canon law, Gallicanism, administrative history, and the history of European ecclesiastical bureaucracy. A well-preserved and attractive example, and a valuable primary source for scholars studying Church-State relations before the Revolution. Scarce 1688 Paris handbook detailing French procedures before the Roman Curia, printed for lawyers and ecclesiastical officers managing benefices and provisions. Attractive contemporary binding; uncommon in commerce. Very Goodâ" (worn headcap, boards rubbed, but text clean and complete) Contemporary full mottled calf, raised bands, gilt compartments, red sprinkled edges.…

Description de la boutique

About Us El Sabio Books Inc. was founded in Calgary by David and Sean O’Neil, a partnership built on a shared fascination with history, philosophy, and the written word. Our journey began when a visit to a local antiquarian bookshop led to the discovery of a remarkable collection: a bulk lot of sixteenth to eighteenth century volumes found in a modest house in Humboldt, Minnesota, a quiet rural town far from any major center of the book trade. When offered the chance to see them, we found a beautiful compilation of survivors of centuries past. The idea that such a trove of knowledge and craftsmanship had resurfaced in a small Midwestern town was astonishing. When Aquila Books offered the collection for sale as a single lot, we recognized the opportunity and decided to purchase it together. If that chance had not been offered, El Sabio Books would never have begun. That decision marked the start of a family enterprise devoted to preserving and sharing the intellectual and artistic legacy contained in these works. With the generous guidance and early support of Aquila Books, one of Canada’s leading antiquarian booksellers, and the technical assistance of Bibliopolis, El Sabio Books took shape around a clear mission: to safeguard the words that have shaped civilization. We believe the words written in these books are history itself, fixed, enduring, and immune to revision. They stand as the unaltered record of human thought. Our purpose is to act as custodians of that word, protecting and presenting it with the respect it deserves, because within it lies the foundation of knowledge and truth that connects all generations. Today, El Sabio Books is a growing family business dedicated to careful research, accurate cataloguing, and respect for the craftsmanship of past centuries. Our goal is to connect modern readers and collectors with the enduring wisdom of the past, to keep alive the voices, ideas, and artistry that have guided human understanding for hundreds of years.…
