Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Early Account of the Establishment of Jesuit Missions in America Con privilegio real En Madrid, En Casa de P. Madrigal. Ano de 1592. Esta tassada en papel en cinco Reales, y 19 mrs. Quarto; ff 12, 237 3; 193 x 140 mm. Father Pedro de Ribadeneyra, the author, was born in Toledo, November the first, 1527, and died at Madrid on the twenty-second of September, 1611. He served in several important posts in the Company of Jesus, and besides other works was the author of the Lives of Loyola, Laynez, and Borgia the first three Generals of the Order. The "Vida de Borja" was first printed in Madrid in 1592, the foregoing being the title to the first edition. The other editions that I have been able to trace are: Verdun, 1596, in French; Douai, 1596 and 1603, in French; Florence, 1600, in Italian; Ingolstadt, 1613, in German; Mentz, 1603, in Latin; Rome, 1616, in Italian, cited by Backer; and Antwerp, 1598; Mayence, 1613; Douai, 1603; Lyons, 1609, cited by Nicolas Antonio. These are all separate editions of the Life of Borgia. The three "Vidas" of Loyola, Laynez and Borgia appear together in several editions, the earliest being 1594. Perez Pastor in Bibliografia Madrilena, Madrid, 1891, gives the interesting information about this edition of 1594, that the Duke of Gandia, son of Francisco de Borgia, gave 1500 reals to assist the printing "de ce livre." This sums up the bibliographical information that I have found in regard to the book. As to the book itself, I have not been able to locate a copy of any edition in any public library in America. The British Museum catalogue has two editions, Madrid 1592 (imperfect) and Mentz 1603. The copy which I owned and from which the chapters quoted in this article are taken is now in the library of Mr. Henry E. Huntington. I obtained it through Mr. Robert Dodd, and a name on the title indicates that in the early part of the 19th century it was the property of Alfred Hennen of New Orleans.
