Sydney F Smith (1843-1922), the son of a well-to-do Anglican vicar, became a convert to Catholicism, and a Jesuit. While reflecting the nineteenth century debate, his account of the Suppression of the Society of Jesus in 1773 by Pope Clement XIVth remains by far the fullest, most wide-ranging and most detailed treatment of the subject available in English. Ed Joseph A Munitiz, SJ.
