In 1977, the members of the
Jesuit Historical Institute in Rome decided to begin the difficult task of
preparing a historical dictionary (encyclopedia) of the Society of Jesus.
In 1979 Fr. Arrupe approved the dictionary project, and work was begun. On
the feast of St. Francis Xavier (December 3), 2001 the finished dictionary
finally came off the presses. The Diccionario de la Historia de la Compañía
de Jesús counts some 4274 pages in four volumes, and includes some 5,637
biographies, 138 articles on Jesuit activity in various countries, and 158
articles touching various themes and activities of the Society and its
Institute. More than seven hundred authors, translators, and editors were
involved in the preparation of this work.
