"Throughout hr long life, Mildred walked 'the lonely path of peace' with the likes of J.S. Woodsworth, Mahatma Gandhi, and Martin Luther King." She was a crusading socialist and an absolute pacifist who lived her beliefs in word and deed. But this story of her extraordinary life does not seek to sanctify her. Her foibles and frailties are as much a part of the tale as her deep spirituality and unquenchable dedication to social causes spanning six decades." - from back cover. Unmarked with light wear.

1542In-8°; cc (24) incluse 2 ccbb.Al frontespizio un legno.La Vita di San Prosdocimo ha un proprio frontespizio. Alla prima carta bianca nota manoscritta. Legatura coeva in piena pergamena. una raccolta di capitoli in terzine, ciascuno con un proprio titolo, del rimatore petrarchista Antonio Boatto. “Il contrasto (schema antichissimo da Iacopone a Bonvesin) si sviluppa vivacemente in direzione teatrale, opponendo il materialismo dell’uomo esteriore all’ascesi platonica dell’altro; alla fine l’uomo esteriore si converte, in una notevole drammatizzazione dell’intervento della grazia di Dio, che salva l’uomo senza conculcare il libero arbitrio: tema da mettere senz’altro in rapporto con il capitolo contro Lutero. Quest’ultimo testo… è illuminante per capire quanto gli echi della rivoluzione teologica della Riforma fossero diffusi anche tra i semplici fedeli: Boatto descrive con estrema lucidità, nella sua invettiva, i punti salienti della predicazione di Lutero, dal libero esame delle Scritture, alla questione della grazia, del libero arbitrio, e quindi della validità del Purgatorio e dei sacramenti” (G. Da Pozzo, a cura di, Storia letteraria d’Italia, Il Cinquecento, 2, p. 953, 1066).
