THOMAS AQUINAS (c.1225-74). Summa theologiae: Pars secunda: secunda pars. Venice: [Leonardus Wild], 1479.
The second part of the second part of the Summa theologicae, Thomas Aquinas’s magnum opus containing the sum of all learning, deals with the virtues and vices. Its authority as a guide to Christian morals and ethics resulted in its separate circulation, a tradition reflected in the early printed editions, as here. A large copy, retaining many deckle edges. HC *1463; BMC V 264; IGI 9594; CIBN T-181; Bod-inc T-178; BSB-Ink T-292; Goff T-215.
Chancery folio (300 x 212mm). Without final blank leaf, initials in red, rubricated (first leaf lightly soiled). Contemporary German blindstamped pigskin over wooden boards, remains of single fore-edge clasps, title written on upper cover and spine (spine lined, repairing neat tears). Provenance: Bregenz, Capuchin convent, then Benedictine monastery (17th-century inscription; contemporary annotations).
