Collection of the militant Roman Catholic writings by the Jesuit priest Cornelius Hazart (1617-1688), born at Oudenaarde and a popular preacher at Antwerp. All the present pamphlets are polemical, devoted to defend and explain questions rejected by the Dutch Protestants, like the devotion of Saints, relics and pilgrimage to Saints, the interpretation of the Last Supper, etc. They were mainly intended for the Jesuit Mission into the Northern Dutch Republic. Special attention was given to the Southern Provinces, Dutch Brabant and Limburg, which were at the time more or less second-grade provinces within the Dutch Republic, and in these provinces Roman Catholicismwas still strong among the common people. Thus the polemics of the third and fourth work were addressed to Schuler, and Van Renesse, both ministers of the Protestant Church at Breda. Written in the vernacular and intended for the general public these pamphlets were rather popular. Good copy, with the bookplates of the Jesuit College at Culemborg, and of Jean Grand Jean Perrenod Comtesse.- (Ms. index on first free endpaper).
