Christian Doctrine.- Colloquium zu Altenburgk in Meissen..., title printed in red and black, the occasional small hole or marginal nick, marginal toning and scattered spotting or foxing, contemporary blind-stamped calf, portrait of Johann Wilhelm, Herzog zu Sachsen-Weimar to upper cover and his arms to lower, gauffered edges, rebacked preserving old spine, cracking at joints, rubbed and bumped, [VD16 K 1945], Jena, [Donat Richtzenhan], 1569; and another 16th century German work, folio (2) *** This copy is particularly notable for its association with Wilhelm, Duke of Saxe-Weimar (1598–1662), a prominent German prince and patron of learning, whose name and coat of arms appear on the binding. The work records the Altenburg Colloquy of 1568–1569, an important Lutheran theological debate concerning justification, free will, and adiaphora.
