Gilt coats of arms to boards of His Grace Hieronymus von Colloredo, Prince-Archbishop of Salzburg and patron of Mozart. Colloredo was noted for his Protestant approach to Catholicism, banning Pilgrimages and superstitious practices, limiting processions and decoration of holy sites. The binding is dated 1772, the year Colloredo ascended the throne. His relationship with Mozart was a turbulent one, and after several arguments he dismissed the composer with the words "Let him go then, I don't need him!" and, according to Mozart, "a kick up the backside".
Schilter was a German jurist and philosopher, and honorary professor at Strasbourg University. In later life he was plagued by gout and became bed-bound; this did not stop his efforts of teaching and he even held lectures from bed. This is an interesting and lengthy 17th century law book relating to the church in Germany.
Provenance: Sold by German bookseller Riese- und Versandbuchhandlung in 1963 to an Englishman; receipt and relevant page from their catalogue are held loose inside the book.
