The complete title to this work is: CATECHISMUS EX DECRETO Sacrosanti Concilii Tridentini. Iussu Pij V. Pontificus Maximi editus. In Capita, & sectiones distinctus, varijsque SS, Patrum Sententijs, & vtriuaque tum noui, tum veteris Testamenti auctoritatibus munitus, & omni cura emendatus. Cui etiam duo Indices adiecti, Alter earum rerum, qua ad Euangelia Dominicalia, & aliquot Festorum accommoderi possunt. Alter earum, quae in toto opere continentur. This edition was published by Antonij Remondini (variously, Giovanni Antonio Remondini) at Bassani (variously, Bassano), Italy. Remondini (ca 1634-1711) was the foremost publisher at Bassano in his day. The Remondini family had been pre-eminent printers through the 17th to 19th Centuries. This book, like one or two others in my collection, has a calf skin cover. The edges of the covers extend a little longer than the pages, so that they can be bent to protect the page edges. This can be seen in the photo directly below. |
Various chapters and the sacraments were illustrated with woodcuts, as shown below. |
