The for- mula expressed the nature, spirituality, community life and apostolate of the new religious order. Its famous opening statement echoed Ignatius’ military background:

Whoever desires to serve as a soldier of God beneath the banner of the Cross in our So- ciety, which we desire to be designated by the Name of Jesus, and to serve the Lord alone and the Church, his spouse, under the Roman Pon- tiff, the Vicar of Christ on earth, should, af- ter a solemn vow of perpetual chastity, poverty and obedience, keep what follows in mind.

3 History

3.1 Foundation

On 15 August 1534, Ignatius of Loyola (born Íñigo López de Loyola), a Spaniard of Basque origin, and six other students at the University of Paris[17]—Francisco Xavier from Navarre (modern ), Alfonso Salmeron, Diego Laínez, Nicolás Bobadilla from Spain, from Savoy, and Simão Rodrigues from Portugal—met in Montmartre outside Paris, in a crypt beneath the church of Saint Denis, now Saint Pierre de Montmartre.[18] Church of Saint-Pierre de Montmartre, Paris. They called themselves the Company of Jesus, and also Amigos en El Señor or “Friends in the Lord”, because they felt “they were placed together by Christ”. The name permitted them to be ordained priests. These initial steps had echoes of the military (as in an infantry "company"), led to the founding of what would be called the Society of as well as of discipleship (the “companions” of Jesus). Jesus later in 1540. The term societas in Latin is derived The word “company” comes ultimately from Latin, cum from socius, a partner or comrade. + pane = “with bread”, or a group that shares meals. They were ordained at by the bishop of Arbe In 1537, they traveled to to seek papal approval for (24 June). They devoted themselves to preaching and their order. Pope Paul III gave them a commendation, and charitable work in Italy, as the Italian War of 1535- 3.2 Early works 3

His main principle became the unofficial Jesuit motto: (“For the greater glory of God”). This phrase is designed to reflect the idea that any work that is not evil can be meritorious for the spiritual life if it is performed with this intention, even things considered normally indifferent.[19] The Society of Jesus is classified among institutes as a mendicant order of clerks regular, that is, a body of priests organized for apostolic work, following a religious rule, and relying on alms, or donations, for support. The term “Jesuit” (of 15th-century origin, meaning one who used too frequently or appropriated the name of Je- sus), was first applied to the Society in reproach (1544– Fresco of Approving of bylaw of Society of Jesus depicting 52). It was never used by its founder, though members Ignatius of Loyola receiving papal bull Regimini militantis Ec- and friends of the Society in time appropriated the name clesiae from Pope Paul III.

1538 renewed between Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, Venice, the Pope and the Ottoman Empire rendered any journey to Jerusalem impossible. They presented the project to the Pope Paul III. After months of dispute, a congregation of cardinals reported favorably upon the Constitution presented, and Paul III confirmed the order through the bull Regimini militantis ecclesiae (“To the Government of the Church Militant”), on 27 September 1540, but limited the number of its members to sixty. This is the founding document of the Jesuits as an official Catholic religious order. This limitation was removed through the bull . Ignatius was chosen as the first superior-general (leader of the Jesuits). He sent his companions as mis- sionaries around Europe to create schools, colleges, and seminaries.[19] In fulfilling the mission of the “Formula of the Institute of the Society”, the first Jesuits concentrated on a few key activities. First, they founded schools throughout Europe. Jesuit teachers were rigorously trained in both classical studies and theology, and their schools reflected this. Second, they sent out missionaries across the globe to evangelize those peoples who had not yet heard the Gospel, founding missions in widely diverse regions, such as modern-day Paraguay, Japan, Ontario, and Ethiopia. , 1598 Finally, though not initially formed for the purpose, they aimed to stop Protestantism from spreading and to pre- The Jesuits were founded just before the Counter- serve communion with Rome and the successor of Peter.

By the time of Ignatius’ death in 1556, the Jesuits were already op- erating a network of 74 colleges on three continents. A precursor to liberal education, the Jesuit plan of studies incorporated the Classical teachings of Renaissance hu- manism into the Scholastic structure of Catholic thought. In addition to teaching faith, the Ratio Studiorum empha- sized the study of Latin, Greek, classical literature, po- etry, and philosophy as well as non-European languages, sciences and the arts. Furthermore, Jesuit schools en- couraged the study of vernacular literature and rhetoric, and thereby became important centers for the training of lawyers and public officials. The Jesuit schools played an important part in winning back to Catholicism a number of European countries which had for a time been predominantly Protestant, notably Poland and Lithuania. Today, Jesuit colleges and universities are located in over one hundred nations around the world. Under the notion that God can be encountered through created things and especially art, they encouraged the use of ceremony and decoration in Catholic ritual and devotion. Perhaps as a result of this appreciation for art, coupled with their spiritual practice of “finding God in all things”, many early Jesuits distin- guished themselves in the visual and performing arts as well as in music. Jesuit priests often acted as confessors to kings during the Early Modern Period. They were an important force in the Counter-Reformation and in the , in part because their relatively loose structure (without the requirements of living in community, saying the divine office together, etc.) allowed them to be flexible in meet- ing the needs of the people at the time.

Jesuit missions in America were very controversial in Eu- rope, especially in Spain and Portugal where they were seen as interfering with the proper colonial enterprises of the royal governments. The Jesuits were often the only force standing between the Native Americans and slavery. Together throughout South America but especially in present-day and Paraguay, they formed Christian Native American city-states, called "" (Span- ish Reducciones, Portuguese Reduções). These were so- cieties set up according to an idealized theocratic model.

Conversely, the Jesuits were very active in transmit- ting Chinese knowledge and philosophy to Europe. Confucius's works were translated into European lan- guages through the agency of Jesuit scholars stationed in China, which is why Kǒng Fūzǐ is known in the West un- der his Latinized name to this day. Matteo Ricci started to report on the thoughts of Confu- cius, and father Prospero Intorcetta published the life and works of Confucius into Latin in 1687.[27] It is thought that such works had considerable influence on European thinkers of the period, particularly among the Deists and other philosophical groups of the Enlightenment inter- ested by the integration of the system of morality of Con- fucius into Catholicism.[27][28]

Sainte- Marie II was abandoned in June 1650 as the remaining Hurons and Jesuits departed for Quebec and Ottawa.[36] With all this destruction the Huron began to claim that the Jesuits were sorcerers sent to their homeland to kill. They would blame the outbreak of disease on the Jesuits, claiming that they were casting spells from their books. With the outbreak of disease, many people began to mis- trust the Jesuits and suspect them of witchcraft.[37] As a result of the Iroquois raids and disease, many mission- aries, traders, and soldiers were killed or captured. The Huron tribe ceased to exist.[38] After the collapse of the Huron tribe, the Jesuits were to undertake the task of converting the Iroquois natives themselves. In 1642, previous Jesuits attempted to con- vert the Iroquois but had little success. The Jesuits risked their own lives and well being for the sake of this Iro- quois mission. In 1653 the Iroquois nation had a fall out with the Dutch. They then signed a peace treaty with the French and a mission was established.
