13 volumes bound in 8 together with Joannis Damasceni, Opera Omnia in 3 volumes. Text in Latin and Greek. (8vo) period half-roan lettered on spines in gilt. From the Series Graeca, itself a subsection of The Latin Patrology or Patroligiae Cursus Completus published between 1841 and 1865. The Patrologia Latina includes Latin works spanning a millennium, from Tertullian (d. 230) to Pope Innocent III (d. 1216), edited in roughly chronological order in 217 volumes; volumes 1 to 73, from Tertullian to Gregory of Tours, were published from 1841 to 1849, and volumes 74 to 217, from Pope Gregory I to Innocent III, from 1849 to 1855. Although the collection ends with Innocent III,[1] Migne originally wanted to include documents all the way up to the Reformation; this task proved too great, but some later commentaries or documents associated with earlier works were included. Institutional stamps and plates. Due to the size and/or weight of this lot extra shipping and/or handling charges may apply.
