[RELIGION - MYSTICISM] GEORGIUS Nicolaus – NIEREMBERG Juan Eusebio A set of two important works on Christian devotion and asceticism printed in the Southern Netherlands: - GEORGIUS Nicolaus. De naer-volginge des doodts ons heeren Iesu Christi: af-ghebeelt door den Christelycken mensch... Brussels, published by Ian Mommaert, 1650. In-8°. Full vellum. First edition, adorned with a frontispiece title page and copperplate engravings, some by Guillaume van Schoor. - NIEREMBERG, Juan Eusebio. Verschil tusschen het tydelyck ende het eeuwich... translated into German by the Rev. P. Andreas de Bocye... Antwerp, The widow and heirs of Jan Cnobbaert, 1648. 8vo. Full vellum. First edition of Andries de Booys’ Dutch translation. Text in Gothic type. These major works are fully in line with the Flemish Counter-Reformation movement, exploring themes central to the mysticism of the era, such as memento mori, the contempt for temporal illusions, and the Christian’s spiritual journey toward eternity.
