The Jesuit Order in Europe and Its History
An aging chronicle reviews the Jesuits from Loyola’s early days to their expansion across Catholic Europe. It notes vows, obedience to the Pope, and high internal surveillance, while contrasting views on their influence, wealth, and moral purity with critiques from various political figures. The piece blends religious history, parliamentary commentary, and satirical notices on contemporary politics and society.
