This scarce 1671 edition of Bilancio Spirituale dell’Anima by Don Carlo D’Amico is a deeply contemplative work focused on Christian mystical theology and spiritual exercises. The book is structured to guide the reader through ten days of meditations, discourses, and spiritual reflections, blending teachings from sacred scripture with insights from mystical theology. Intended for those pursuing a spiritual vocation, such as preachers or the spiritually devout, the book encourages a deeper relationship with God through solitude, reflection, and meditation.
The book is bound in later paper-covered boards, with woodcut ornaments, head-pieces, and initials. It includes a frontispiece plate.
It is in Good condition. The rear hinge has been reinforced, with light grime and two paper tears at the head of the spine, the headband slightly loose and lacking a tailband. The paste-downs show two wormholes, damp staining, and light grime. The frontispiece and first two gatherings are loose with some separation at the head. The pages are lightly toned but overall clean. Item #5
