We ask you why spend your hard earned money and not feel good about how you spend it? This book is offered by Literary Cafe, a small company who believes in recycling good novels and giving historical/valuable works to good homes. The profits we gain supports The Ronald McDonald House, Doernbecher's Children's Hospital, Randall's Children Hospital both in Portland, Oregon, the Shriner's Children Hospital and the Veterans of Foreign Wars.

Condition: Good-, binding is coming loose but still a very collectible copy. Inscription on inside page "To Mamma from G.G Haley 12/25/14" and "$3.00 w check mark inside a small circle". There is also a photograph of a young man, handsomely dressed in period clothing unattached inside of book. This is a very rare copy of this book, I have found no other reference's or copies anywhere on the internet and it may very well be the last 1909 copy in existence.

About this Novel: This is a self published book by the Author telling his version of Cain's Wife and his sermons throughout the midwest in the late 1890's through 1906. The book is covered with green cloth and a beautiful picture of a woman dressed in plant leaves surrounded by large fern like plants. From the light reading of this book, it appears to have Pentecostal type teachings.

Description:
In 4. Dim. 28,5x22 cm. Pp. LVI+376. Rara prima edizione del 1752 di questa importante opera del sacerdote Daniele Concina (1686-1756). Concina era noto principalmente per il suo inflessibile rigore e per le sue orazioni energiche e spesso violente. Il suo intento era quello di un ritorno alla Chiesa delle origini. Questa opera formata da tre dissertazioni è una critica aperta alle rappresentazioni teatrali a causa della loro presunta influenza corruttrice dei costumi. Al verso dell'occhietto il testo di una lettera circolare di Papa Benedetto XIV datata 1 Gennaio 1748 agli arcivescovi e vescovi in latino ed in volgare nella quale egli attesta la tolleranza anche se di mala voglia per il divertimento carnevalesco. Tra gli argomenti trattati: storia degli spettacoli, la dottrina luterana, il pensiero di Paolo Segneri in merito, Pignatellli, Bellarmino, le donne in scena, la voluttà del teatro, la musica teatrale ecc... In buone condizioni. Copertina in cartonato coevo con titolo… Read More
