• L-Hungary, Budapest Univ. Libr., Hungarian SJ books
  Il fondo antico della Biblioteca dell'Universita Eötvös Loránd di Budapest. La Bibliofilía, 105. (2003) 49-76 [PDF]. Among the most ancient holdings of Budapest's University Library are those remnants of the primitive book collection of the Hungarian Jesuitical University of Nagyszombat, now known as Trnava in Slovakia. Contained in this collection are volumes from several 16th century Jesuitical settlements in Hungarian territory not subdued by Turks following the battle of Mohács in 1526, transdanubian Hungary and Transylvania, only partially independent from the Ottoman Empire. The history of the Jesuitical educational institutes in these areas overlaps with the complex political and religious affairs of the region. The recovery of some 17th century catalogues and a study of provenance notes contained in the books themselves has permitted the realisation of a databank of this material, remarkably important for the history of Hungarian culture.

• L-Poland, Cracow, Society of Jesu Scientific Library
  This library is housed in the Cracow college. A separate section, the so-called: Provincial Library was created within the Writers Library. In 1929, Father Stanislaw Bednarski (1896-1942) took upon himself to gather all old prints of all Society's chapter houses (with the exception of Chyrów), thereby creating the Malopolska Province of the Society of Jesus The collection consists of nearly 20,000 (30,000 volumes) of valuable Polish and foreign prints. Among others: a part of the Jozef Kalasanty Szaniawski's book collection (1764-1843), the books of old Jesuit Libraries in Austria, many rare old prints from Polocko, legal theses from old German universities, not to mention many jesuitica. In 1980, a section of manuscripts and drawings was created. Undoubtedly, an extremely valuable part of the Writers Library is the archival section of photocopies and microfilms regarding the history and the legacy of the Jesuits in Poland. These originate mostly from Roman Archives of the Society of Jesus (Archivum Romanum Societatis Iesu ARSI). Some manuscripts from the archive of the South Polish Province of the Society of Jesu, as well as other manuscripts from Polish archives and non-Jesuit libraries have been secured at this collection. Microfilms of personal files of Polish Jesuits stored at libraries in Austria, Sweden and Latvia complement this collection.

  Remarkable Catholic theological library collection in the U.S. Founded in 1869 at Woodstock College outside of Baltimore, it was located in New York City from 1969-1974 and then moved to Georgetown University, Washington, DC. The library contains approximately 190,000 volumes and has been housed as a separate collection in the Joseph Mark Lauinger Library on the Georgetown University campus since 1975. Its rare book collection of over 17,500 titles is an outstanding theological collection of 15th through 19th century counter-reformational and American theological works. In 2002, the library began to make available on its web site a number of interesting Jesuit texts, including selected letters and instructions of St. Ignatius of Loyola and the works of John Courtney Murray, S.J. Not all Woodstock resources are currently electronically visible on Georgetown University's on-line catalog, GEORGE. These resources can reliably be retrieved only by using the conventional card catalog in the Woodstock Library.

• L-Vatican archives
  

  The Vatican Secret Archive [...] contains the documents concerning the central government of the Catholic Church. It is called "secret" because it is the private archive of the pontiff. He is its sole owner, establishing its norms and deciding whether to open it for consultation.
  
  Today, it can be consulted through the entire pontificate of Pius XI, meaning up until 1939. The next section to be opened, the one dealing with the pontificate of Pius XII, will give free access up until 1958, but a wide selection of documents from the years of the second world war has already been public for some time.

• L-Vatican Library
  

  The new website provides news on the status of the restoration work. But above all, it gives access to the catalogs of the works kept in the library. The main new development is that in addition to the catalog for printed works, there is now also a catalog for manuscripts. For now, it contains a limited amount of information. But it has already been supplemented – for the manuscripts accompanied by complete descriptions – with a selection of images freely available for view.

  Michael Boym (1612 or 1614 - 1659) was a Polish missionary, Jesuit. During his journey to China he visited the coast of Mozambique (1644), in his days called Cafraria. His description of two Portuguese factories -- Sena on the Zambezi river and Mozambique Island -- is one of the most interesting and oldest Polish accounts of Africa. It is illustrated with five water-colours and two linedrawings by his own hand. The manuscript entitled "Cafraria, a P.M. Boym Polono Missa Mozambico 1644 Januario 11" is kept at the Archivum Romanum Societatis Iesu in Rome under the signature Goa 34-I, ff. 150-160. The text has never been edited in a scholarly way.

• M-Missionaries and mandarins: Jesuits in China
  Rome not only collected the books from many foreign cultures; in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries it became the center of missionary enterprises that spanned the world. In China, Jesuits like Matteo Ricci and Adam Schall von Bell performed an incredible task of translation and interpretation. They learned the language; they made converts, some of high rank; and, in order to impress the cultivated Chinese elite with western forms of knowledge, they translated into Chinese the classical western science of cartography and the radically improved astronomy of Galileo. They also argued to their western superiors that Chinese classics had a core of values and tenets that matched those of Christianity. Eventually the Jesuits' openness to China led them into trouble; but for the first century and more of their mission, they did a remarkable job of bringing western forms of knowledge to China and Chinese forms of thought to the West. The Vatican preserves remarkable materials from both sides of this cultural exchange.

  This article by Franz Obermeier is about the iconography of the first Argentinian imprint, an edition of Juan Nieremberg's "De la diferencia entre lo temporal y eterno" in Guarani, printed in the Jesuit reducciones in Paraguay 1705. These reducciones, Jesuit missions in nowadays Argentine and Paraguay, were villages controlled by Jesuit fathers in which the Indians, mostly Guarani, were instructed in religion, arts and crafts. In 1705 the Jesuits installed a printing press. Under their supervision, the Nieremberg edition was printed by the Guarani Indians. With more than 40 copperplate engravings it is a masterpiece of early South American printing and the earliest surviving book printed in Argentine.(PDF-German)

  The Religious Emblem Tradition in the Low Countries in the Light of Herman Hugo's Pia desideria

  The development of the love emblem in the Netherlands, from c. 1600 onwards, can be seen a as manifestation of the successful literary relationship between the northern and southern part of the Low Countries. The commercial success of Plantijn's first Dutch translations of emblem books, published in Antwerp, continued after 1600 with the publication of original Dutch volumes published in Leiden and Amsterdam. Initially the Dutch love emblems were mainly Petrarchist in tone and content. The suffering of the lover caused by the whimsical hard-heartedness of the beloved is expressed in clever antitheses and paradoxes. The perspective of the male lover is dominant, although his role is that of victim. Often it is the male feelings that predominate. The many early volumes of love emblems that rolled off the presses were intended for the "courting youth" young men and women in search of a spouse. The heyday of love emblems also brought the publication of several volumes containing both emblems and songs. Hooft's Emblemata amatoria is one example (with 71 pages devoted to emblems and 73 to songs and sonnets), but also the less ambitiously published Cupido's lusthof (Cupid's Garden of Delight) of 1613. Combination volumes like these allowed for optimal social use.
  As the genre evolved, the playful and often Petrarchist tone of the first volumes made way for greater seriousness. In 1615 the love emblem acquired a new dimension with the publication of Vaenius's Amoris divini emblemata, a free adaptation of his previously published Amorum emblemata. Religious love emblematics was thereafter to a large extent influenced by Cats's Sinne- en minnebeelden (first published in 1618) and by Hugo's Pia desideria (1624). Hugo's Pia desideria would become the most influential emblem book published after Alciato's Emblematum liber (1531): the book was reprinted 49 times, and 90 translations and adaptations were published all over Europe.
  Yet, the relationship between the profane love emblems, Vaenius's Amoris divini emblemata en Hugo's Pia desideria have never been studied systematically, although some partial efforts were made. The way in which the Pia desideria was used to help shape and form the Contra-Reformation in the South, as well as the way in which these emblems manifested themselves in the North have not been the focus of recent research. The 'Pia Desideria Project' is aiming to change this situation by publishing:

  • a doctorate thesis on the position and role of the Pia desideria in the South (by Lien Roggen, supervised by Marc van Vaeck)
  • a doctorate thesis on its role in the North (by Feike Dietz, supervised by Arie Gelderblom and Els Stronks, titled 'Emblematic Dynamics in the Seventeenth Century: Word, Image, Religion' )
  • organizing a conference to conclude to project, focusing on related research on the Pia desideria in the rest of Europe (organized by Marc van Vaeck en Els Stronks)
