Sadoleto (1477-1547) was an Italian Roman Catholic Cardinal who tried to coax Protestants to return to Catholicism through peaceful dialogue and persuasion, notably exchanging correspondence with John Calvin. This volume's title translates to "On the Education of Children." Only one institutional copy found via WorldCat, and none in the trade or auction record at time of listing.
