Appendix II.
Bibliography.
I. Primary Sources.
The Constitutions of the Society of Jesus. Numerous editions in Latin. The English translation, published by a Protestant in 1838 (London, Rivington, etc.), is very unscholarly and unreliable. – The fourth part of the Constitutions, which treats of the studies, is given in Latin and German in the work of Father Pachtler quoted further on (vol. I, pp. 9-69).
Decreta Congregationum Generalium. (Decrees of the General Congregations of the Society.) The General Congregation is the legislative assembly of the Order; the decrees of different Congregations relating to studies are contained in Father Pachtler's work, vol. I, pp. 70-125.
Ratio atque Institutio Studiorum Societatis Jesu, usually quoted as Ratio Studiorum. Latin text and German translation in Pachtler's vol. II, and German translation in Father Duhr's Studienordnung.
