8vo, 160x100 mm, full eighteenth century brown calf binding, with gilt title and decorations at a five raised band spine, marbled paper at guards, red colored edges, silk bookmark; 2 parts; pp. [32], 253, [51]; 110. Two title-pages, both with woodcut devices, the first in red and black types, the second in black. Xyl. initials and head-pieces. Text in Latin.

Fine copy of this rare Lyon edition of the Proceedings of the Council of Trent, including a second part (“The index of banned books”), with its own title-page: Index librorum prohibitorum, cum regulis confectis per patres à Tridentina synodo delectos: auctotitzte Pii 4. Primum editus, postea verò à Sixto 5. auctus. Et nunc demum S.D.N. Clementis papæ 8. iussu recognitus, & publicatus [...].

The first Index of banned books was published by Pope Paul IV in 1559 at the request of the Inquisition, and confirmed in 1564. The Congregation of the Index was established in 1571. The Index was updated regularly until 1961, by addition of the Congregation of the Inquisition or the Pope.

Plein veau brun du 18e s., dos à nerfs richement décoré. Bel ex. de cette rare édition lyonnaise des actes du Concile de Trente avec un « Index librorum prohibitorum ». Le premier Index romain fut publié par le pape Paul IV en 1559 à la demande de l'Inquisition, et confirmé en 1564. La Congrégation de l'Index fut instituée en 1571. L'Index fut régulièrement mis à jour jusqu'en 1961, par ajout de la Congrégation de l'Inquisition ou du pape.

Provenance: Ex-libris label glued at first paste-down (initials: J.L.; a donkey with spectacles looking at a bookshelf).

References: IT\ICCU\CFIE\008640 (only one copy). OCLC, 461054829 (one copy in France but apparently without the Index of banned books). Apparently no copy in USA.
