About This Item
1482 Exposition BIBLE Psalms Spanish Torquemada Incunable COMPLETE Incunabula
Juan de Torquemada was a 15th-century Spanish Dominican and papal apologist at a time when Protestants were pressuring the authority of the pope. Proofs of his papal defenses were prevalent in his writings, including his 'Exposition of the Psalms'. This commentary was very popular throughout the 15th-century.
Dating on this work comes from the ISTC. While the exact date is unknown, the ISTC notes that it was published at or before 1482 – an extremely rare 15th-century bible commentary!
It is incredibly rare to find a complete incunabula, especially one as early as this! Note the original leather binding as well. A true masterpiece of 15th-century printing!
