1684 Spanish Louis of Granada Catechism Catholic Council Trent + 1666 Memorial

Louis of Granada was a 16th-century Spanish Dominican friar and preacher. Best known for his homilies and devotionals, Granada wrote an important edition of the 1566 Roman Catechism of the Council of Trent. Granada edited and translated the Catechism to make it more understandable for Spanish readers. Years later, the work was translated into French and published throughout the French speaking world.

This 1684 edition was translated by Girard and published in Paris in four volumes. This set features a 1666 printing of Granada's "Additions to Memorial of a Christian Life" – a supplement to his earlier 'Christian Life'. This work was written to instruct on proper and moral living under the Christian church, with devotions and prayers.
