Nice copy of this rare work, first published in 1537, a pessimistical satire on the philosophers who proclaim solutions to the confusion and agitation in that time of religious strife. It contains i.a. a dialogue on the philosopher's stone between Luther, Bucer and Erasmus under thinly disguised names. - Brunet II, 644; Sander 470.€ 240
