1656 1ed James Ussher Life & Death Archbishop Dublin IRELAND Irish Catholic RARE

"What is it which all men especially desire? Eternal life and happiness?" ­
– James Ussher, Body of Divinity
James Ussher was an early 17th-century Archbishop in the Church of Ireland who is most remembered for giving an exact date to the beginning of creation. His full body of work includes letters, sermons, dissertations, and exegeticals, but this work focuses solely on improving the Christians life and strengthening their faith. A biographical sketch of Ussher's life was written by Nicholas Bernard following the archbishop's death in 1656.

1625 1ed English Francis Mason Consecration Bishops Church England anti Catholic

Francis Mason was a notable and important bishop of the Church of England at the end of the 16th-century. He is best remembered for his 1613 defense of the Church, "Of the Consecration of the Bishops in the Church of England". In this book, Mason describes the importance of having bishops be consecrated. This controversial book propelled Catholic authors to condemn Mason's work in which he published more and more editions including this Latin edition which was published in 1625.

Description:
1681 DUTCH Neyn Voyages BRAZIL America INDIANS Florida Ceremony Rituals Funerals
Pieter de Neyn's "Lust-hof der Huwelyken" is a late 17th-century treatise on the ceremonial customs and rites of weddings and funerals from around the world. Neyn covers numerous cultures including natives of Brazil, Native American Indians, Southern Asia, and India, as well as African tribes. Neyn also gives attention to notable Dutch voyagers including Jan Huyghen van Linschoten.
However, the greatest appeal of this work is Neyn's consideration of the Americas. According to Sabin, this work
"[known as] The Pleasant Matrimonial Garden, treats the following American tribes: Appalachians, Brazilians, Inhabitants of Guiana, Florida, Ingas (i.e. Incas), New-Netherland, New-France, Virginia."
A highly desirable and rare 1681 first edition, complete with full-page engravings!
