HERIBERTUS Iohannes (RAYNAUD, Theophile)
Eunuchi, nati, facti, mystici, ex sacra et humana literatura illustrati
In -4°, pp. (8), 203, (5), cartonato. Frontespizio in rosso e nero. Prima (e unica) edizione. “Zaccaria Pasquale nelle “Decisioni morali” avea sostenuto che i padri hanno diritto di mutilar i flgliuoli per conservarne o svilupparne la voce. Il gesuita Teofilo Raynaud di Sospello genovese, famoso per ampia e disordinata dottrina, lo confutò” in quest’opera (cfr. Cesare Cantù, “L’abate Parini e la Lombardia nel secolo passato”), che tratta di castrazione e di asessualità derivata da varie cause, raccogliendo materiale dottrinario e letterario. Da notare che la condizione di “eunuco”, secondo alcune tradizioni sacre, comprende anche l’omosessualità (gli eunuchi classificati come “nati”). Théophile Raynaud, italianizzato come Teofilo Rainaldo (Sospello, 15 novembre 1583 – Lione, 31 ottobre 1663), è stato un teologo gesuita francese. Entrò nei gesuiti il 21 novembre 1602. Insegnò grammatica e lettere ad Avignone, poi filosofia e teologia a Lione e Roma. The eunuchus condition, according to some interpretation of Scriptures, could include homosexuals (i.e. the eunuchi classified as “nati” i.e. “born”). In this review the author, a jesuit prolific writer, take in exam the holy and profane litterature about the eunuchs condition and status.
