Abstract
Alessandro Ludovisi, born in 1554 to a notable family of Bologna, went to Rome as a young man to study with the Jesuits at the German College and Roman College, beginning barely more than a decade after Ignatius’s death in 1556. This was before the Ratio Studiorum—the Jesuits’ educational guide—was formalized in 1599, but the solid foundation he gained in rhetoric, philosophy, theology, and the humanities was to serve him well.
