Documents and Studies in Book and Library History 205 Attraverso l?analisi di inedite testimonianze archivistiche e di un?ampia documentazione internazionale, il volume ripercorre secondo una nuova ottica l?affascinante storia delle biblioteche dell?antica Compagnia di Ges?. Mentre larga parte degli studi precedenti si era concentrata principalmente sull?analisi dei patrimoni librari gesuitici settecenteschi, questo lavoro si focalizza sulla vita delle raccolte dell?ordine nei due secoli precedenti la soppressione clementina del 1773. In ultimo viene approfondito il caso esemplare di Perugia, la cui originale storia bibliotecaria viene proiettata nel pi? largo orizzonte della storia culturale ignaziana.
