Jerónimo Nadal’s meditative treatise 'Adnotationes et meditationes in Evangelia' is a foundational Jesuit propaedeutic, for it taught the order’s scholastics how to convert the Gospels into exegetical images, which could then be utilized for prayer, preaching, and evangelization. The prints were immensely influential and were copied, both exactly as freely, numerous times also in painting and sculpture. - De Backer/S. 1518-9; Funck 367; Hollstein LXIX, 56 (not mentioning this 1607 edition). - Sold w.a.f., not subject to return.€ 600
