| Summary | "Secreta Monita Societatis Jesu. The Secret Counsels of the Society of Jesus" is a historical document written in the early 19th century. This work presents a critical examination of the purported secret instructions of the Jesuit order, exploring themes of authenticity and moral implications. It is likely to attract readers interested in religious history, secret societies, and the controversial legacy of the Jesuits. The opening of the book establishes its structure as a Latin text accompanied by an English translation. It introduces a discourse on the work's authenticity, arguing for its role as an exposé of the Jesuit Society's secretive operations throughout history. The editor outlines the various perspectives surrounding the origins of these counsels, including the possibility that they may have originated from expelled Jesuit members or been crafted by adversaries of the order. This sets the tone for a comprehensive investigation into the real motives and actions of the Society of Jesus, questioning both their moral standing and historical impact.
