1701 Dutch Hazart Church History JESUIT Missions Illustrated TORTURE Martyrs

Cornelius Hazart was a 17^th-century Dutch Jesuit priest and controversialist writer. His “Ecclesiastical History of the Whole World” delivered on the ‘controversial’ side of church history, as Hazart explored some of the most detestable acts of the church including tortures, imprisonments, wars on religion, and brutal executions, such as drowning, hangings, beheadings, and burnings.

This 1701 printing is translated and enlarged from the first Antwerp edition from 1667. This book covers church history throughout Europe, including Germany, France, Netherlands, and England, with parts dedicated to the Americas and Africa. This universal church history is unquestionably Hazart’s greatest work, and is ideal for historical perspective on Jesuit missions and missionaries around the world, as well as martyrs throughout church history. It is filled with 55 engravings depicting important church figures such as Saint Ambrose, Charles I of the Holy Roman Empire, Leonard Vechelius, Alexander Earnesius, Thomas More, Saint John Fisher, Mary Stuart, and more.
