1790In 8° (18×12,5 cm); 91, (1) pp. Legatura coeva in piena cartoncino, un leggero alone al margine interno. Carta leggermente ed uniformemente brunita. Piccola incisione xilografica al frontespizio. Iniziali, finalini e testatine xilografici. Prima rara edizione stampata a Foligno da Giovanni Tommasini di questo curioso scritto di Giuseppe Guevara con il quale l’autore vuole rispondere ad un’anonima pubblicazione stampata nel 1789 a Fermo che preannunciava l’imminente fine del mondo. L’autore inizia prendendo in considerazione la difficoltà di capire ed interpretare correttamente le visioni. Segue una dissertazione sulla difficoltà di dare una chiara data all’avvento dell’Anticristo secondo quanto si può sapere secondo la dottrina cattolica. Analizza poi i segni che anticiperanno il giudizio universale dimostrando come non è sicura una loro chiara disposizione temporale. Si analizza anche la profezia dell’anticristo legata al Corno, a Gerusalemme ed ad Antioco in vari capitoli come quello dal titolo “Principio ed ingrandimento d Antioco dichiarato per il Corno Piccolo fatto grande” e anche la profezia di Ezechiele. Esemplare raro, ancora in barbe ed in buone-ottime condizioni di conservazione.
