Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. First Edition. First impression of the true first edition. Jacket illustrations: (front) Ignatius Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus; (rear): Jesuit martyrdom in India. ***Illustrated with black and white photographs. ***Fine in black cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to spine. No inscriptions. Interior pages bright and clean. In a near fine colour illustrated dustwrapper. Spine of dustwrapper very slightly faded. No tears. Front and rear panels of dustwrapper bright. ***242mm x 162mm. 320 pages including appendices, bibliography and index to rear. ***'We are called the Pope's janissaries, "the favourite brood of anti-Christ," reported Jesuit missionaries to England in 1614. Very soon after its foundations in 1540 the Society of Jesus had gained an almost legendary reputation for efficiency and unscrupulous cunning as the spearhead of a Catholic counter-attack that wrested the initiative from a seemingly triumphant Protestantism. ***The original ambition of its founder, the Basque aristocrat Ignatius Loyola, was to travel alone to the Holy Land to convert Muslims. Yet an astonishing sequence of inspired improvisations transformed a group of ten ragged fanatics into the most formidable religious force of its time. Jesuits - as the "shock-troops of the Pope" took Christianity to distant parts of the world, often suffering torture and martyrdom in the process. The most intrepid explorers of their day, they were also pioneer linguists and anthropologists; their shrewd accommodation to life at the Emperor's court in China, and their enlightened treatment of the Indians in Paraguay, contrast sharply with later colonial rapacity. ***The Society was the first religious order to specialize in teaching on the grand scale - its system of education has produced such diverse intellects as Galileo, Moliere, Descartes, Voltaire and Teilhard de Chardin. ***David Mitchell's exciting account traces the stormy history of this most celebrated and vilified of Catholic orders to the present day. The Society of Jesus has always been at the centre of events within the Catholic Church and its story unfolds against a fascinating background of religious and political turmoil in Europe.' (Quote from inside front of dustwrapper blurb). ***First impression of the true first edition in its original colour illustrated dustwrapper, in fine bright condition. Of interest to historians researching the history of the Jesuits. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 3598
