"DEVOTION TO THE SUFFERINGS AND TO THE CROSS OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST FOR THE USE OF THE FAITHFUL GENERAL"

This book from 1811 is a devotional text focused on the Passion of Jesus Christ, aiming to deepen the faithful's spiritual reflection on the sufferings and crucifixion of Christ. Published at the beginning of the 19th century, this work embodies the rich tradition of Catholic piety and the emphasis on the redemptive nature of Christ's sufferings. It would typically include meditations, prayers, and possibly visual representations designed to assist believers in contemplating the mysteries of the Passion. The title suggests that the book was intended for general use among the faithful, rather than for a specific religious order or congregation. Such books played a crucial role in the personal and communal devotional practices of the time, providing a means to engage with core Christian beliefs and to participate in the cycle of liturgical commemorations throughout the year, especially during Lent and Holy Week.
