Description
Volume 1 (Prima Pars) from a set of the Summa Theologiae in Latin from 1773, published in Rome. This set has 5 volumes and each item is 42 cm tall. This particular volume is 29 cm long and 6 cm wide with a black and white cover with a red and beige spine. Within the front cover is a bookplate indicating that this book was once owned by Rev. James H. Driscoll. The recto has handwriting. Although this set of the Summa also includes commentary by Cardinal Cajetan, the commentary is below the text, not surrounding it. The verso of the title page includes a very large and striking illustration of St. Thomas Aquinas as he is writing, being divinely inspired.
