About Early Jesuits and the Rhetorical Tradition (Routledge Research in Early Modern History)

This book explores sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Jesuit contributions to the rhetorical tradition established by Isocrates, Aristotle, Cicero and Quintilian. It analyses those Jesuits who taught rhetoric at the college of Rome, including Pedro Juan Perpina, (1530-66), Carlo Reggio (1539-1612), Francesco Benci (1542-94), Famiano Strada (1572-1649) and Tarquinio Galluzzi (1574-1649). Additionally, it discusses the rhetorical views of Jesuits who were not based in Rome, most notably Cypriano Soarez (1524-93), the author of the popular manual De arte rhetorica . Jesuit education, Ciceronianism and civic life feature as the key themes of book. Early Jesuits and the Rhetorical Tradition, 1540-1650 argues that, in line with Cicero, early modern Jesuit teachers and humanists associated rhetoric with a civic function. Jesuit writings, not only on rhetoric, but also on moral, religious and political themes testify to their thorough familiarity with Cicero’s civic philosophy. Following Cicero, Isocrates and Renaissance humanists, early modern Jesuit teachers of the studia humanitatis coupled eloquence with wisdom and, in so doing, invested the rhetorician with such qualities and duties which many quattrocento humanists ascribed to an active citizen or statesman. These qualities centred on the duty to promote the common good by actively participating in civic life. This book will appeal to scholars and students alike interested in the history of the Jesuits, religious history, and early modern history in general.
