the popular name for the monastic order called the society of jesus. the order was founded by ignatius de loyola in 1534, and was recognized by the pope in 1540. the mission of the jesuits was in three areas: teaching, service to the n-bility, and missionary work in foreign lands. their greatest mark was made in education, and the collegio romano was their primary seminary.

often jesuit one given to subtle casuistry.

f. j’esuite, sp. jesuita: cf. it. gesuita.] 1. (r. c. ch.) one of a religious order founded by ignatius loyola, and approved in 1540, under the t-tle of the society of jesus.

note: the order consists of scholastics, the professed, the spiritual coadjutors, and the temporal coadjutors or lay brothers. the jesuit novice after two years becomes a scholastic, and takes his first vows of poverty, chast-ty, and obedience simply. some years after, at the close of a second novitiate, he takes his second vows and is ranked among the coadjutors or professed. the professed are bound by a fourth vow, from which only the pope can dispense, requiring them to go wherever the pope may send them for missionary duty. the coadjutors teach in the schools, and are employed in general missionary labors. the society is governed by a general who holds office for life. he has -ssociated with him “-ssistants” (five at the present time), representing different provinces. the society was first established in the united states in 1807. the jesuits have displayed in their enterprises a high degree of zeal, learning, and skill, but, by their enemies, have been generally reputed to use art and intrigue in promoting or accomplishing their purposes, whence the words jesuit, jesuitical, and the like, have acquired an opprobrious sense.

jesuits’ bark, peruvian bark, or the bark of certain species of cinchona; — so called because its medicinal properties were first made known in europe by jesuit missionaries to south america.

if you want torture, they’ve got it: iron maidens, thumbscrews (the original gameboys), the rack (not t-ts, folks), the wheel, cat o’ ninetails, -n-l pears, whips, water-torture (but not chinese because jesuits considered them heathens), and painful vises to make you confess even imaginary vices! this is the spanish inquisition at its finest. you want zealots; jesuits are zealot’s-r-us’s finest antique models.
can you think of anything better than being brutally tortured until you confess to being a filthy heathen (probably a jew) in love with (and having had vast orgies with the minions of) satan?

what a bunch of b-st-rds…
“jesuits?”
“no one expects the spanish inquisition!”
