Recensione: RMR 13 (giugno 2013), pp. 200-2203 [Jacopo Bertol] Abstract: "Founded in 1540, the Society of Jesus was instantly popular, attracting thousands of candidates in its first century. Camilla Russell looks to the lives and writings of early Jesuits to better understand the Society's appeal, how it worked, and the ideas that drove Christian thinkers and missionaries during the Renaissance and early modern period" |
