2nd edition for La liberté du cloître.
There are two works in this book. In the first part, a poem is written in which the decline of the monastic order is highlighted. This trend continues in the short story entitled Alexander VI, where this time corruption takes the form of the patriarch of the infamous Borgia family.
A common complaint: the fattening of religious elites at the expense of their priesthood. Hence their obsolescence and decadence.
In good condition.
