Orueta y Castrillón, Francisco.
Exposicion que el Illmo. S.D.D. Francisco Orueta, obispo de Trujillo, dirije al Illmo. S.D.D. Jose Sebastian de Goyeneche, dignisimo arzobispo de Lima, sobre el proyecto de Lei de desamortizacion de bienes eclesiasticos.
Publisher: Trujillo [Peru]: Impreso por F. Rázuri 1867..
101 pp. Sm. 8vo. Gray paper wrappers. First edition. Quiñones: Imprenta en el norte del Perú p. 31. Francisco Orueta's argument against confiscation of church property. The Catholic Church had seen the adoption of the 1860 constitution in Peru as an assault on its power. Another assault was launched in in late 1866 and early 1867 by Fernado Casos (1828-1881), a revolutionary, author of a history of Peru and two historical novels, and liberal member of the Congreso Constituyente who authored a bill for the confiscation of Church property (republished in this volume after the preface by Jose Sebastian, Archbishop of Lima). Francisco Orueta y Castrillón (1804-1886), Bishop of Trujillo, attacks the proposed law as inaccurate, exaggerated, having no foundation in law nor natural justice: "El Proyecto de desamortizacion presentado al Congreso, cuyos fundamentos, unos parecen nada conformes a la ciencia juridica, y otros inexactos y exajerados, desconoce los derechos que resultan del dominio que compete a la Iglesia en los bienes que posee, y viola los principios generales de la justicia natural." Scarce. We could find none listed at auction. BN Peru has a copy and OCLC locates only five others: Harvard Law, Univ.Texas, and three at the Univ. Calif. None on Copac or any online European or Latin American libraries. Wrappers soiled, two small paper remnants on front edge most likely from a seal being removed, and one partial paper stamp on rear, inked numeral to corner, spine worn at foot, scattered foxing but overall contents clean and still very good.
