Do livraria Suíça Harteveld Rare Books , retirámos a seguinte descrição : “The third of the four volumes of

the edition issued in 1586-1588, of the collection of homelies on each day of the year by the Spanish

ascetic theologian Luis of Grenada, who became a Dominican at Grenada in 1525 and studied in Valladolid

from 1529 till 1534. From 1534 till 1545, he was in a convent near Cordua where he met the famous Juan

of Avila. He was appointed provincial of this order for the Portuguese province in 1556. His works have had

a major influence on Charles Borromée and François de Salles, who wrote in 1603 to a bishop: ?Ayez

Grenade tout entier, et que ce soit votre second bréviaire; il dressera votre esprit à l?amour de la vraie

dévotion et à tous les exercices spirituels qui vous sont nécessaires?.The present Conciones de tempore

were first issued by Plantin in 1577-1579 in three volumes, and reprinted in 1581, 1583-1584 and

1586-1588. Each volume was sold separately, which explains why there are no complete copies known of

the whole edition.Please notify before visiting to see a book. Prices are excl. VAT/TVA (only Switzerland) &

Anvers, 1878; RUELENS & BACKER, Annales Plantiniennes, 1967: Sorgeloos in his catalogue wrote: ?There

Moretus Museum), but incomplete? (Our copy is complete).”
