Ursprung der Verderbniss und alles gottlosen Wesens. So heutiges Tages unter den Christen im Schwange gehet.

Budissin, Hünel, 1713.

8vo. In contemporary full calf with four raised bands and title embossed with black lettering. Light wear to extremities and soiling to frontiespiece, otherwise a good copy. (62), 638 pp. + frontispiece. 

Rare first German translation of Osterwald's "Traite des sources de la corruption" in which he argued for a practical piety, diverging from orthodoxy, such as a job as a central obligation.
