Description
1586 Jacop Passavanti Mirror of Penance 14th-c Bible Sermons Origen Venice
“Go, O man of the heavens, when thou art in thy mind, and consider the goodness of the burial.”
― Jacopo Passavanti, Mirror of True Penance
A rare 16th-century printing of Jacopo Passavanti’s “Speccio di Vera Penitenzia”. This collection of anecdotes was originally printed in 1495 and is the only known work of the 14th-century theologian. In this work, Passavanti explains moral principles and clarifies scriptures. In addition to his work as a preacher, Passavanti was also an architect and his writing helped inspire various frescoes of Santa Maria Novella.
According to Gamba, this fourth edition is “extremely sought after” and is the first edition to include dogmatic works of Origen, a 3rd-century Greek theologian and scholar. While the title page mentions this as a second edition, three editions were printed before this 1586 issue.
