About
Prague, 1761 and 1763
Folio, 32.7x20.3 cm. Book One, 282 numbered pages + 8 leaves of indexes; Book Two, 282 numbered pages + 6 leaves of indexes, in Czech. Title pages printed in black. Initials, headpieces, vignettes. Sturdy half-leather binding, spine with 4 raised bands and a coating with manuscript shelf-marking. Printed by Žofie Kirchnerová in Prague in 1761 through her foreman Karel Unger, and by Jan Josef Klauser in 1763 respectively.
The book shows wear commensurate with its age: damaged binding, book block intact, occasional foxing, manuscript annotations, slight traces of woodworm.
The collection contains moral instruction, sermons and expositions intended for the individual Sundays of the entire liturgical year and for the feast of the dedication of a church (posvícení). It served priests as material for Sunday sermons and the faithful for devotional reading at home.
