  • SANCTI IULIANI TOLETANAE SEDIS EPISCOPI OPERA. Pars I. Cura et studio J.N. Hillgarth. Brepols, Turnhout, 1976. LXXIV,263p. Original terra-cotta gilt titled cloth. Small sticker glued to paste-down endpaper. Series: Corpus Christianorum, Series Latina, CXV. Nice copy. (Rare). ‘Professor Hillgarth is well known as a historian of early and high medieval Spain, and one of exceptional width and learning. He now shows himself highly competent in quite another skill, a skill only rarely allied to historical gifts. This new volume of the ‘Corpus Christianorum’ contains texts of Julian of Toledo’s 'Prognosticum’ (with the letters of Idalius), ‘Apologeticum de tribus capitulis’, and ‘De comprobatione setae aetatis’ that are imcomparably better than any previously printed. (…) Hillgarth’s long introduction, in English, discusses the life and writings of Julian, and goes into elaborate detail on the manuscripts and previous editions of the works here newly edited.’ (MICHAEL WINTERBOTTOM in The Journal of Theological Studies, 1977, p.571). € 85.00 (Antiquarian)
