Abstract
The exegetical habits of the spirituali and the Jesuits are explored in this case study through a focused examination of the exegetical theory and practice of Cardinal Gasparo Contarini (1483–1542) and Juan Maldonado, SJ (1533–83). A comparative approach to these figures illuminates the ways that the spirituali’s irenicism and Jesuit’s Counter-Reformation militancy shaped corresponding exegetical practices. Contarini’s exegetical method is gleaned from his Scholia in epistolas divi Pauli (1571). Discussion of Maldonado’s theory of exegesis, on the other hand, is based on his De ratione theologiae docendae (1573). The chapter concludes by pointing out that the contrast between these two exegetical approaches underscores an intra-confessional tendency in early modern Catholicism towards post-Tridentine regulation and normalization of exegetical practices.
