(1) f., vi, 197 pp., (1 blank) f., 13 pp. With portrait of Don Miguel Mañara de Leca & 1 allegorical plate, both engraved by Joaquin Bullester. The alms-house of Hospital de la Caridad in Seville, founded in 1674 by Miguel de Mañara Vicentelo de Leca (1626-1679), has served the sick and elderly for some 350 years. Legend has it that Mañara, then a licentious nobleman, was returning one night from a riotous orgy when the vision of a funeral procession, in which the partly decomposed corpse in the coffin was seen to be his own, had led him to renounce his worldly goods and join the Brotherhood, devoting his fortune to the care of the poor and building the hospital, but this has been disproved. The brotherhood of the Santa Caridad dates from 1456, and its original task was to comfort criminals before execution and collect and bury their corpses and those of people found drowned in the Guadalquivir River. Miguel de Mañara revitalized the fraternity and persuaded the members to expand their charitable activities and establish a hospice. To embellish the impressive building, which can still be seen today, he commissioned paintings by Bartolomé Murillo and Juan Valdés Leal and the walls of the church were richly ornamented in the high baroque style. The work sets out the hospice's regulations and in this issue the final 13 pp. reproduce the royal decree by D. Ferdinand VII establishing further rules governing the hospice and dated Seville, 27 September 1831. The pagination of copies varies in that some contain one or more copies of decrees associated with the Santa Caridad and others lack any. With the bookplate of Noel Pinelli, the French parliamentary deputy and bibliophile, who, like Mañara's family, originally came from Corsica. Palau 150367. Ruiz Lasala, Joaquin Ibarra y Marin 1725-1785, 0788. Aguilar Piñal X, 2986. Not in Salvá.

Description:
Bruxelles, Melines, Cans... 1854. This is the official French version of the history of the Italians (Beaumont-Vassy does not admit to an Italy) from 1815 to 1850. In his version, the Congress of Vienna served to establish Austrian dominance in the Italian states. Austrian misrule resulted in dangerous unrest among Italians, which resulted in an unfortunate revolution. Fortunately, the French Army at Rome suppressed the irresponsible brigands led by Garibaldi, and the future, under benign French supervision, will restore tranquility to the peninsula. This copy is from the library of Nicholas Brown, Minister of the United States to Rome in 1848-50, whose sympathies were with Italian republicans. Hard Cover. 2 p.l., 292 pages, leather spine, very good copy. Stock#OB383.
