About this book

This book is the second volume of a projected 3-volume edition which aims to contribute to our understanding of Robert Persons's significance as a controversial figure in early modern European history. It includes documents and letters by Persons, as well as letters to Persons, notably from the superior general of the Society of Jesus, Claudio Acquaviva. Letters in Latin, Italian and Spanish are presented both in the original language and spelling and with English translation, and letters in English in original spelling. All letters have been collated with the extant manuscript witnesses. The correspondence in this volume covers Persons's sojourn in Spain, the repercussions of the death of William Cardinal Allen, and Persons's return to Rome.
