Madrid, Imprenta de la Viuda de Manuel Fernandez, 1755. 4to.; 2 hs., XVI pp., 398 pp. y un mapa plegado, grabado en cobre, que muestra las misiones jesuitas en la India. Encuadernación en pergamino, de la época. Parte destacada del presente volúmen esta formada por las "Cartas" del Padre Sebastian Rasle (1658-1724) en las Misiones del Canadá, entre los Indios Abenakis, en Norridgewock, en el Rio Kennebec, en tiempo de las luchas contra los ingleses de New England, a manos de los cuales murió finalmente tras haber sido puesta a precio su cabeza. Su prestigio y fama entre los Abenakis fue imperecedero, su conocimiento de su lengua y costumbres impresionante, como lo prueba el manuscrito de su "Diccionario de la Lengua Abenaki", milagrosamente conservado hasta hoy en la Biblioteca del Harvard College y publicado en 1835. Otra interesante relación es la que contiene el viaje y estancia en el Tibet entre 1716 y 1721 del Padre Ippolito Desideri. No menor es el interés del Informe de la Visita de Fray José Peralta, Obispo de Buenos Aires, a las Misiones jesuítas del Paraguay en 1743.

1757In 8° (17,3×11 cm); (2 b.), 48, 13, (3 b.) pp., 34, (2 b.) pp. Legatura novecentesca in piena pergamena semi-floscia. Esemplare in buone-ottime condizioni di conservazione. Prima edizione italiana e probabilmente, prima in assoluto, di questo interessante scritto di interesse americano. Della stessa opera, esistono diverse edizioni, una in francese (stampata a Parigi nel 1758), due in portoghese (stampate a Lisbona nel 1758 e nel 1759) e almeno tre in italiano (una del 1757, una del 1758 stampata a Siena e una del 1759 stampata a Lugano). L’opera presenta nella seconda parte la “ Breve di Nostro Signore PP. Benedetto XIV e decreti di S. M. Fedelissima”. Il “Manual Bibliographico de Estudos Brasileiros” n.° 4429, riferendosi all’edizione portoghese pubblicata nel 1759 scrive “Este escrito atribuido ao Marques de Pombal, minstero de D. Josè I, rei de Portugal e grande adversario dos Jesuitas, é un panfleto contra a Companhia … Este documento, apesr de seu tom apaixonado e muito parcial contra os Padres, é muito importante para a historia de um dos episodios maximos da vida e das atividades da Companhia de Jesus no Brasil”. Henry Stevens, Rare Anericanam n° 1326 descrive l’edizione italiana stampata a Lisbona nel 1758 dicendo” The original Portuguese Edition appeared at Lisbon in the same year (1758), and there was a edition in French, issued at Paris, also in 1758”. Oggi sappiamo che almeno un’edizione, questa, uscì già nel 1757 in lingua italiana. La seconda parte dell’opera contiene altri due scritti la “Deduzzione abbreviata degli ultimi fatti, e Procedure de’ Religiosi Gesuiti in Portogallo, e degli intrighi da essi macchiati nella Corte di Lisbona; scritta da un Ministro ben informato” e la “Breve di Nostro Signore PP. Bendetto XIV e Decreti di S. M. Fedelissima”. L’opera è un’importante pamphlet antigesuitico per attaccare i componenti della Compagnia di Gesù per la creazione delle celebri “Reducciones” , piccoli nuclei di cittadini, sopratutto nel Paraguay (ma anche in Cile, Uruguay, Bolivia, Argentina e nella Nuova Granada”), in parte autonomi dal potere centrale, da utilizzare come basi per l’evangelizzazione delle popolazioni indigene. L’idea iniziale era quella di creare realtà simili a quelle occidentali ma prive dei lati negativi di queste quali la depravazione, la corruzione, la lotta per il potere ecc. La fine delle Riduzioni fu l’inevitabile conseguenza delle lotte fra spagnoli e portoghesi, per il controllo del Sud America risolto nel 1750 con il Trattato di Madrid che sanciva i confini dei due imperi. Questo provocò migrazioni di popolazione. I gesuiti come i Guaranì non accettarono il trattato. I gesuiti ottennero dal sovrano spagnolo, dopo il pagamento di enormi ricchezze, di lasciare che l’opera di evangelizzazione potesse andare avanti con i metodi fino ad allora utilizzati basati sui valori religiosi e culturali ma impossibile fu ottenere lo stesso dal sovrano portoghese per i rapporti, già fortemente deteriorati con i gesuiti. Questa mancanza di accordi portò allo scoppio di diversi scontri, fino al definitivo inizio, di quella che sarebbe poi passata alla storia come la Guerra Guaranì che imperversò dal 1750 fino al 1756. Nel frattempo, in Europa, i gesuiti subirono fortissimi attacchi diffamatori con la pubblicazione di libelli e opere diffamatorie che puntavano a discreditare la Compagnia di Gesù agli occhi dei popoli europei. Prima edizione, assai più rara di tutte le edizioni edite nel 1758. Rif. Bibl.: IT\ICCU\CFIE\037507 che descrive questa edizione del 1757 priva però la “Deduzione, abbreviata degli ultimi, e Procedure …ecc., l’Avvertimento e la Breve di Nostro Signore PP. Benedetto XIV e decreti di S. M. Fedelissima); Borba de Moraes, II/ppp. 184-5, Palau, XVI/n. 260622; Parenti, Falsi Luoghi, p. 112; Henry Stevens, “Rare Americana” n° 1326, descrive però l’edizione italiana stampata a Lisbona nel 1758.
