Extract
This book could not have been written without the help, kindness, and competence of the staff of the libraries and archives where I have worked these past few years. I am especially grateful to Monsignor Alejandro Cifres and Dr. Daniel Ponziani, director and archivist, respectively, of the Archivio della Congregazione per la Dottrina della Fede; Professor Martín Morales, S.J., director of the Archivio della Pontificia Università Gregoriana; Dr. Mario Brunello and all the staff of the Archivum Romanum Societatis Iesu; and Dr. Giovanni Castaldo and all the staff of the Archivio Segreto Vaticano. I would also like to thank the staff of the Cambridge University Library, the British Library, and the Duke Humfrey’s Library at the Bodleian Library.
While thinking about and working on this book, I have benefited from the suggestions and criticism of many colleagues and friends. I am especially grateful to Lori Anne Ferrell, Knud Haakonssen, Claudia Mancina, Arthur Marotti, Tom Mayer, Sears McGee, Anthony Milton, Adriano Prosperi, Debora Shuger, Johann Sommerville, Ann Taves, and Colleen Windham-Hughes. I would also like to thank the anonymous readers, Cynthia Read, and the editorial staff at Oxford University Press for their comments, suggestions, and support. Errors and omissions, of course, are my own.
