The Suppression of the Society of Jesus
Author: Sydney Fenn Smith
Publisher: Gracewing Publishing
ISBN: 9780852446300
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
"Sydney F. Smith's account of the Suppression of the Society of Jesus in 1773 remains by far the fullest, most wide-ranging, and most detailed treatment of the subject available in English. Based on an exhaustive reading of European sources, it reflects the nineteenth-century debate about the Suppression. Originally published as a series of essays in The Month, a century after the first steps were being taken for the re-establishment of the Order at large and within a few years of the abrogation of Clement XIV's Brief by Leo XIII, this work is now presented to a new readership a century later." "Sydney F. Smith's examination of the episode remains both all intriguing account full of human interest and an indispensable work of reference for historians of the period. The study has been newly edited by Joseph A. Munitiz, SJ with a full index and with an appraisal by a modern scholar, R. W. Truman, to set the work in context."--BOOK JACKET.

English Jesuit Education
Author: Maurice Whitehead
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317143051
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 287
Book Description
Analysing a period of 'hidden history', this book tracks the fate of the English Jesuits and their educational work through three major international crises of the eighteenth century: · the Lavalette affair, a major financial scandal, not of their making, which annihilated the Society of Jesus in France and led to the forced flight of exiled English Jesuits and their students from France to the Austrian Netherlands in 1762; · the universal suppression of the Jesuit order in 1773 and the English Jesuits' remarkable survival of that event, following a second forced flight to the safety of the Principality of Liège; · the French Revolution and their narrow escape from annihilation in Liège in 1794, resulting in a third forced flight with their students, this time to England. Despite repeated crises, huge adversity and multiple losses of personnel, property and educational goods, including significant libraries, the suppressed English Jesuits reconfigured themselves. Modernising their curriculum, they influenced the development of Jesuit education not only in the United Kingdom, but also in the nascent United States of America: in 1789, their influence contributed to the founding of Georgetown Academy, which later developed into the present-day Georgetown University in Washington, DC. English Jesuit Education is a unique story of educational survival and development against seemingly impossible odds, drawing on hitherto largely unexplored material in a wide range of archives.

Saints and Sinners in Queen Victoria's Courts
Author: Tom Zaniello
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476680817
Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 243
Book Description
This chronicle of ten controversial mid-Victorian trials features brother versus brother, aristocrats fighting commoners, an imposter to a family's fortune, and an ex-priest suing his ex-wife, a nun. Most of these trials--never before analyzed in depth--assailed a culture that frowned upon public displays of bad taste, revealing fault lines in what is traditionally seen as a moral and regimented society. The author examines religious scandals, embarrassments about shaky family trees, and even arguments about which architecture is most likely to convert people from one faith to another.
