Meticulous manuscript copy of the 1736 "Theologia Supplex", a heretical work prepared and published anonymously by the French Dominican theologian Jacques-Hyacinthe Serry (1659-1738), challenging the Apostolic constitution "Unigenitus" of 1713 that opened the final phase of the Jansenist controversy in France. As Serry defends several of the propositions of Pasquier Quesnel that were censored in the "Unigenitus" bull, his work was placed on the Roman Index in 1737.

Provenance

From the collection of Johannes Kelecsényi, pastor in the parish Zay-Ugrócz in the diocese of Nitra in present-day Slovakia, with his ms. ownership to flyleaf (prepared by a scribe, as the 94-year-old suffered from "trembling hands").

Later in the episcopal library at Székesfehérvár in Hungary, with their stamp of ownership to title-page and two more pages. Two later ms. shelfmarks to title-page; another two pasted to front cover and spine.

Condition

Binding slightly rubbed; a small wormhole near upper end of lower hinges and pastedown. Occasional brownstaining.
