RESUMEN:El análisis de la relación directa de los términos “estilo jesuítico” y “noster modus” con las teorías arquitectónicas del Humanismo como aglutinante de la llamada arquitectura de los jesuitas es una parte fundamental del trabajo. A partir de esta hipótesis, hemos utilizado la tipología de San Luis de los Franceses, (Sevilla), como ejemplo característico de la funcionalidad, ornato y lenguaje decorativo de la arquitectura jesuítica. Considerada como de las arquitecturas más notables de la Compañía de Jesús, es destacable su planta centrada en forma de cruz griega inscrita en un rectángulo, poco conocida en Sevilla. El diseño de la arquitectura basado en sus propias reglas constructivas ha sido un hito de la historia de arquitectura occidental. Esta forma de proceder respetaba el pensamiento humanista en el que la casa de Dios debía simbolizar la perfección, armonía, belleza e integridad del Creador.PALABRAS CLAVE:Humanismo; Arquitectura jesuítica; Barroco; Perspectiva Lineal; Noster modus.ABSTRACTThe analysis of the direct relationship of the terms “jesuit style” and “noster modus” (our way of proceeding), with the architectural theories of Humanism as a binder of what it is called Jesuit Architecture, it is also a fundamental part of this work. From this hypothesis, we used the typology of St. Louis of the French in Seville, as an example of ornamental and decorative language of Jesuit architecture. This church is considered one of the most remarkable architectures of the Society of Jesus. It is noteworthy its centered floor plan in the shape of a Greek cross inscribed in a rectangle. This is plan is little known in Sevillian Architecture. The design of the architecture based on Jesuitical construction rules has been a milestone in Western architectural history. This way of proceeding respected humanist thinking, in which the household of God was supposed to symbolize perfection, harmony, beauty and integrity of Creator.KEYWORDS:Humanism; Jesuit Architecture; Baroque; Linear Perspective; Noster modus.

Abstract:
Considered within the context of Jesuit theatre and liturgy, and within the broader culture of spectacle and ritual in the era of Counter-Reform, the works of art and architecture commissioned by the Jesuits in the seventeenth century can be read as “theatres” of religious performance. This concept is given an ideal case study in the work of Jesuit artist Andrea Pozzo (1642–1709). In this essay I present Pozzo’s work within the context of ritual and prayer for which it was produced, focusing on two of his religious scenographies and two of his lesser-known painting projects. As I consider their use of allegory, emblems and symbols, visual narratives, spatial illusions, and architecture, I argue that both the scenographies and the permanent church decorations achieve persuasion through the engagement of the observer as a performer in a ritual involving both internal and external performance.

Abstract:
The article presents the history and accomplishments of Jesuit architecture in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth from the late sixteenth to the late eighteenth century. The author sees Jesuit architecture as a distinct and homogeneous element within Polish architecture. The paper starts with a brief presentation of the existing research in the subject. It moves on to enumerate the activities of the Society in the field of construction, divided into three major booms: the first roughly between 1575 and 1650, the second between 1670 and 1700, and the third from 1740 to 1770, divided by periods of relative decline caused by a succession of devastating wars. The paper identifies the most important architects involved in the construction of Jesuit churches, as well as their most notable works. The paper ends with a brief note concerning the fate of the Jesuit churches after the suppression of the Society and the partitions of Poland.

Abstract:
The article is devoted to the issue of functioning of the “Il Gesù model” in Lima architecture of the first half of the 17th century. The first part describes “models” in sciences and discusses the issue of using “models” in architecture and in research into architecture. Then it formulates the “Il Gesù model” and, making use of it, characterises three buildings in Lima: San Pablo (contemporarily San Pedro) Jesuit church, a Franciscan church and a Merderian one. Deliberations are summed up with the reflection on various ways of understanding of the notion of “Jesuit style”, one of which is closely related to the similarity to the Jesuit Il Gesù church in Rome.

Abstract:
The visual arts are a powerful tool of communication, a fact recognized and utilized by the Jesuits from the foundation of the order. The Society of Jesus has long used imagery, works of art and architecture, and other aspects of visual and material culture for varied purposes, and the five articles in this issue of the Journal of Jesuit Studies explore how the art they commissioned exemplifies the ideals, goals, desires, and accomplishments of the Society. In particular, these five scholars examine a wide array of images and ideas to consider myriad relationships between the Society and works of art in the early modern period, and the implications of their increasingly global footprint.

Abstract:
At the end of the first half of the 17th century, a “European” character of Peruvian architecture was loosened. In 1650, an earthquake in Cusco destroyed existing buildings and, as the result, proved to be an impetus for building movement intensification. One of a few buildings which were not destroyed was a still unfinished Cusco cathedral, which later played a unique role in baroque architecture development in Peru. The temple was undoubtedly one of the first productions which could be associated with a baroque style. However, without diminishing the significance of the object, it is worth emphasizing other (not less important) sources of baroque architecture in the region. Another temple that undoubtedly influenced the shaping of a new trend in local building was a Jesuit church in Cusco. Mentioned as an important object for Peruvian architecture of the colonial period, it is usually treated as an element in the sequence of baroque architecture development in Peru. It is worth emphasizing the role that the temple played in creation of certain architectural models, which were present in Peruvian building of the late 17th and 18th centuries. Three analysed elements are: a facade composition (influence on the architecture of Cusco: San Pedro, Nuestra Señora de Belén, San Sebastián and the region – temples in Ayaviri, Asillo, Mamara, Huaquira, Puno); a design, a spatial layout and a structural system (similarity to a Jesuit church in Cusco of the temples of San Pedro in Cusco, San Pedro in Juli, Santiago de Pomata, Pisco); decorative-ornamental motifs – towers’ finials (San Pedro in Cusco) or columns’ decoration (Santa Cruz in Juli).

Abstract:
Following a brief discussion of comparative and entangled history, and of the extension of studies of the Renaissance to the world beyond Europe, this article focusses on the Jesuits as carriers of the ideas and forms of the European Renaissance to their mission stations in Asia and the Americas. In their attempts to adapt or ‘accommodate’ Christianity to the cultures of the peoples that they were attempting to convert, Jesuit missionaries made use of Renaissance humanism, rhetoric, grammar and the concern with manners and customs that was later known as ethnography. The missionaries also made use of art and architecture in the Renaissance style to reinforce the Christian message. Their use of local craftsmen had the unintended consequence of introducing new elements into this western style, producing a hybrid art. However, without wanting it or even knowing it, the Jesuits prepared the way for the later reception of western art in India, China and Japan.

Abstract. HBIM methodology is increasingly used for the management of all aspects of architectural heritage, from survey and analysis to conservation, management and restoration issues.Application of HBIM are the so-called Scan-to-BIM processes in which the artifact is surveyed with digital techniques of laser scanning and photogrammetry. These techniques result in point clouds, the basis of the subsequent process of informative and geometric modelling of the artifact. The resulting "smart models" are composed of parametric objects rich in information that can be easily updated at any time.The proposed methodology aims at integrating a study of architectural orders, whose results become preparatory to the subsequent phases of survey and modeling, to the classic Scan-to-BIM workflows. In particular, in the modeling these results have allowed a more targeted choice of techniques used.The method has been applied to the atrium of the former Jesuit College of Santa Croce in Cagliari, which today hosts one of the seats of the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture of the University of Cagliari; in particular, the atrium of the east body of the former Jesuit College, designed by the Piedmontese architect Antonio Felice De Vincenti, has been modelled.

Abstract The implementation of the Velasco administration’s agrarian reforms in the 1970s transformed Peru’s rural landscape and the ways in which communities relate to the physical reminders of the time of the haciendas. Community engagement during recent archaeological research at colonial Jesuit wine haciendas in Nasca’s Ingenio Valley has revealed narratives that link historical memory on the former estates to fantastical imagery of ghosts, treasure, and mysterious tunnels, which simultaneously reference multiple attitudes related to a difficult past. This article ethnographically explores local engagement with hacienda architecture and memories of the hacienda period, which formulate a set of coexisting complex historical narratives indexing the modern communities’ diversely experienced relationship to multiple historical events stretching into the deep colonial past, simultaneously expressing associated trauma, loss, and hope.

ABSTRACT THE ARCHITECTURE OF KNOWLEDGE: THE JESUIT COLLEGE OF OAXACA (XVI-XIX CENTURIES). By Marina Mellado Corriente, MA. A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Art Historical and Curatorial Studies at Virginia Commonwealth University. Virginia Commonwealth University, 2015 Major Director: Michael Schreffler, Associate Professor, Department of Art History The educational endeavor that the Jesuits – members of the religious order known as the Society of Jesus – carried out in Mexico in the course of the colonial period, when this territory belonged to the Viceroyalty of New Spain (sixteenth to nineteenth centuries), was exceptional. Even though this endeavor has been extensively studied, not much has been written about the edifices, and their significant artistic contents, that not only facilitated the endeavor, but also allowed it to thrive. With the aim of contributing to fill that gap in the scholarly literature, this study engages in an artistic and architectural examination of one among the dozens of school complexes that the Jesuits built and decorated in New Spanish territory: the College of Oaxaca. This establishment was the primary educational institution in one of the most prosperous cities of the viceroyalty, and it ranked third in importance among the colleges that the Jesuits founded in New Spain, representing a clear example of the process of spiritual, intellectual and material expansion that the Society of Jesus carried out in Spanish America. By locating, transcribing and interpreting primary sources (primarily inventories and commissions for works of art) that have not been noticed before or have remained unpublished, and by analyzing the material remains that have survived to this day, it has been possible to reveal that the former Jesuit complex – which today serves, simultaneously, as an apartment building, an indoor parking, a series of storefronts, and a church served by a community of Jesuits – once featured a significantly rich artistic and architectural program, the result of assimilating, but also of rejecting, local and Jesuit traditions. This program, unfortunately, has been progressively disappearing since the expulsion of the Jesuits from Oaxaca in 1767.

Abstract:
A presente tese estuda a produção arquitetônica e artística nas Missões Jesuíticas situadas no território do antigo Estado do Maranhão e Grão-Pará (criado em 1621), com particular destaque à região da Capitania do Grão-Pará. O arco temporal compreende os anos de 1653 (estabelecimento da Companhia de Jesus em Belém) a 1759 (expulsão dos jesuítas das colônias portuguesas). A tese enfoca, em particular, o trabalho artístico de jesuítas e índios nas oficinas que funcionaram no Colégio Jesuítico de Santo Alexandre em Belém a partir do século XVIII; procurando identificar a irradiação de modelos criados nas mesmas em direção às igrejas e capelas implantadas pelos jesuítas ao longo do Rio Amazonas e seus afluentes; sobretudo, àquelas que estavam localizadas em vilas, aldeias ou fazendas jesuíticas mais próximas a Belém (Vila de Nossa Senhora de Nazaré da Vigia, Vila Souza do Caeté, Mortigura, Gibirié, Mamaiacú, Jaguarari, entre outras). É colocada a hipótese de que Belém, como um pólo criador de modelos (também pólo econômico e comercial), alimentou toda a produção artística dos jesuítas no Grão-Pará, ao difundir seus métodos de trabalho e suas experiências técnicas. O título Tintas da Terra, Tintas do Reino sintetiza a idéia central da tese, de que o legado dos jesuítas na arquitetura e na arte nas missões do Grão-Pará é resultado do trabalho de europeus e de índios, e do emprego de suas tradições culturais.
This thesis is a study of the artistic and architectural production of the Jesuit Missions in the former State of Maranhão and Grão Pará, which was established in 1621, with a special emphasis on the Captaincy of Grão Pará. The period under study spans the time from 1653, when the Society of Jesus settled in the city of Belém, to 1759, when the Jesuits were expelled from Portuguese colonies. This thesis focuses in particular on the artistic work of both jesuits and indians carried out in the workshops at the Jesuit School of Santo Alexandre in Belém in the 18th century. The thesis seeks to trace the dissemination of the models created in such workshops throughout the Jesuit churches and chapels that were built along the borders of the River Amazon and its tributaries, especially those located in the Jesuit aldeias, vilas and fazendas closer to Belém (Vila de Nossa Senhora de Nazaré da Vigia, Vila Souza do Caeté, Mortigura, Gibirié, Mamaiacú, Jaguarari, among others). The hypothesis under investigation in this study is that Belém, in addition to being an economic and commercial hub, was also an artistic center providing models, working methods and technical expertise for the entire Jesuit artistic community in the Grão Pará. The title Tintas da Terra, Tintas do Reino summarizes the core idea underlying this thesis, namely that the Jesuit legacy in the art and architecture of the Grão Pará missions is the result of the work of europeans and indians, who in doing so resorted to their respective cultural traditions.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis sets out to shed light on the contribution of the Jesuit Order, often known as the Society of Jesus, to the dissemination of ideas about military architecture in the Baroque age. In the first chapter, it is shown that the Jesuits developed an extraordinarily militant form of religious expression that included in its agenda their involvement in 'just wars' against Protestant 'heretics' or Turkish infidels, these being considered to be the two prime enemies of the Catholic Church. The 'military mind' of St Ignatius of Loyola, the preaching, confessional and wider educational ministries of his Order and the compilation of early Jesuit books on war ethics are all addressed together with the relationship that quickly evolved between the mathematical disciplines entrenched in the Jesuit curriculum of studies known as the Ratio Studiorum and the geometry of war. In the context of the great religious divides and numerous wars that characterized early modem Europe, it is shown in the second and third chapters how the Jesuits assisted Catholic leaders by using the mathematical faculties attached to many of their colleges and seminaries for nobles to disseminate knowledge on fortification matters. This was achieved through teaching (both classroom and private), writing (treatises in manuscript or book form), consultations (letters and reports) and, at times, even active service in the field by Jesuit fortification experts attached to Catholic armies. Such military activity was by no means restricted to the European continent. In SQuth America. the Philippines and China, the Jesuits formed armies, built fortresses and manufactured cannons to protect and propagate their missionary work Ad Maiorem Dei Gloriam. The involvement of Jesuits in military matters and their many fortification treatises, not surprisingly, sometimes provoked a negative reactiQn from Generals of the Order who saw them running counter to Loyola's religious vision of world evangelization. But the expertise was real and recognized as such by contemporaries. By examining a late seventeenth-century Spanish treatise on military architecture entitled Escuela de Palas, the third chapter confirms that Jesuit mathematicians who taught and wrote on fortification (sometimes using pseudonyms to protect their identity) were often regarded as experts in military architecture, rivalling the achievements in this field of knowledge of leading military engineers such as Vauban. In the fourth chapter, the career of the Sicilian Jesuit mathematicus Giacomo Maso has been examined in depth because it provides a good case study of the controversy and crisis of conscience that Jesuits contributing to the dissemination of fortification knowledge often had to face. In conclusion, it has been shown in the fifth and final chapter that the interest of several Jesuits in the subject of military architecture remained strong in the 1773-1814 suppression period, after which, however, it was discontinued.

The architectural-constructive patterns whose origins can be traced back to Rome, continue to Portugal, incorporating new elements, and then to northeastern Brazil, undergoing adaptations due to the new and distinctive context. Different materials, lack of specialized labor and reduced funding defined what can be called the Brazilian northeastern variation of Portuguese jesuit architecture, visible in the Ceará Royal Jesuit Hospice church’s ruins, and given the influence of society at the time, in several other religious buildings in the northeastern countryside Brazil. Given the context, this work brings to light a proposal for technical-constructive analysis and reconstitution of the old jesuit church building in Aquiraz-CE from the perspective of the Archaeology of Architecture.

Abstract:
Este trabalho nasceu de um discurso fotográfico, isto é, a fotografia não só como uma ferramenta de pesquisa, mas também como um discurso visual, retraduzindo textos em imagens, e que nos revelou que a cruz e a quadra são as marcas da arquitetura da Companhia de Jesus. No primeiro capítulo pretendemos demonstrar que a cruz é o princípio norteador da simbologia dos jesuítas, apresentar quem eles eram, o que queriam, e porque vieram ao Brasil nos primórdios dos primeiros agenciamentos e ordenamentos. No segundo capítulo pretendemos demonstrar como a cruz é um traçado regulador que originou o pátio e a quadra, e o que isso simbolizou ao longo da história; e no terceiro capítulo demonstraremos como isso reflete na arquitetura jesuítica no Brasil. No quarto capítulo verificamos porque a cruz reguladora dos pátios e das quadras foram aplicados no Brasil e de que forma isso foi feito. Concluímos que a arquitetura dos jesuítas foi um lócus onde o modelo cultural, civilizador e educador implantado era o aristotélico-tomismo mesclado aos novos métodos modernos e inacianos tal como os Exercícios Espirituais, as Constituições Inacianas e a Ratio Studiorum, onde seu canteiro e seu desenho foram formas e meios de alcançar o objetivo maior que era tornar o indígena um cristão, a partir da catequese, e um homem, aos moldes europeus. E que no Brasil, entre 1549-1759, a santa linha reta, quadrada, armada, racional e ordeira, da cruz, foi o princípio norteador da concepção, espaço e elementos de uma arquitetura moderna, em quadra, como meio de domínio, conquista e conversão.
This work was born of a photographic discourse, that is, the photograph not only as a research tool, but also as a visual discourse, retranslates text in images, and revealed in the cross and the court are the hallmarks of the company\'s architecture Of Jesus. In the first chapter we intend to demonstrate that the cross is the guiding principle of the symbology of the Jesuits, to present who they were, what they wanted, and why they came to Brazil in the early days of the first assemblages and systems. In the second chapter we intend to demonstrate how the cross is a regulatory route that led to the patio and the court, and what it symbolized throughout history; and the third chapter will demonstrate how this reflects in Jesuit architecture in Brazil. In the fourth chapter we see because the regulatory cross the courtyards and the court were applied in Brazil and how this was done. We conclude that the architecture of the Jesuits was a locus where the cultural model, civilizing and deployed educator was the Aristotelian-Thomism merged to new and modern methods such as the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises, the Ignatian Constitutions and the Ratio Studiorum, where your site and its design They were ways and means to achieve the main objective which was to make the Indian a Christian from the catechism, and a man, the European way. And in Brazil, between 1549-1759, the holy straight, square, armed, rational and orderly, the cross, was the guiding principle of design, space and elements of modern architecture, on the court, as a means of domination, conquest and conversion.

Abstract:
Issues involving the deep and plain kens arose in the construction of temples, between the need to create a structure in normal spacetime and the need to imbue that structure with symbolic resonance. This chapter shows how prominent temples such as the Church of the Nativity, the Mosque of the Cradle, and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre drew meaningful connections with key points in Jesus's life. At the same time, pilgrims, real or would-be, became interested in the plain-ken specifics of the contemporary Holy Land. This plain-ken interest of the actual spatial dimensions of the Holy Sepulchre, for example, was balanced by a deep-ken interest in geometrical perfection. Attention on the tomb itself was part of a broader plain-ken attention to Jerusalem's metrics, which predated, but peaked in, our period. This plain-ken love for precise, if ugly, measurements existed in a deep-ken space where the original tomb consonated with scale copies re-created across Europe. Inscriptions played a particularly important role in Islamic architecture, including Jesus references encircling the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem and the Minaret of Jam near Kabul.

Abstract:
A tower in the wall of Biar. Consolidation and recovery of an urban imageThe wall of Biar goes around the historical part of the city and connects it with the castle at the top of the hill. This urban wall was comprised by the city wall and a walk wall, which were protected by a battlement and a series of towers. Currently, the urban wall has been swallowed by changes in the area. Internal edifications to the city wall have progressively taken over the wall and, in its outside part, an area as wide as the towers has been occupied, which has eventually set up the front part of Torreta street. The Tower of Jesus is part of this defensive set that nowadays is almost invisible. Before its restoration, the tower was in an unfortunate state of abandonment and deterioration. Large cracks in its masonry warned of its immediate collapse. After its defensive use, it was transformed and joined to more modern neighboring buildings. Removed walls, deformed gaps and variations in the roof concealed its past as it went unnoticed and passed as another house on the street. Only the traces in its walls exposed its history. The intervention process for its recovery began with a thorough, formal, dimensional and technical study, to subsequently propose its restoration and the choice of contiguous elements that had to be eliminated to show a recognizable set. Also, a new way of walking and using it was put forward. During the intervention, several objectives were considered. In addition to the most obvious ones, such as the structural consolidation that would prevent its eventual collapse, recovering its historical image and showing the key facts that would lead to interpreting its past and discovering its secrets. Besides describing in detail the restoration process in its entirety, this text aims to present the issues that were raised during the intervention and to consider those reasons behind all the decisions that were made.

Abstract:
The small village of Montecatini Val di Cecina, capital of one of the largest municipalities in the province of Pisa is perched at an altitude of approx. 420m above sea level and located on one of the last southern offshoots of the Pisan hills. The Montecatini’s first attestation, subject to the civil jurisdiction of the bishop of Volterra, important city of Etruscan origin, dates back to the end of XI century. Montecatini is mentioned as a castle only in May 1225, under the bishopric of Pagano Pannocchieschi. The Belforti family, with the taking of power in Volterra in 1340 and especially following the Filippo’s appointment on the episcopal chair, affirms itself in Montecatini entrusting the construction of the imposing tower to the stone master Ghetto da Buriano, in 1354, on the remains of an earlier structure. To the same, we owe the strengthening of the defensive wall system of the castle and, in the following year, the construction of a residential building. The tower of 30m approx. and the keep, of the latter remain today only a few traces, represent the essential component of the defensive system of the castle, of which today are still visible the towers with circular section. Towards the middle of the 14th century the domain of Montecatini was taken away from the Belforti family and handed over by the Florentines to the town of Volterra until, in 1472, it was subjected to the Florentine republic together with its countryside. At the end of the 60’s the tower was bought by Emilio Jesi, entrepreneur and important art collector (whose collection was donated to the Pinacoteca di Brera in Milan), who made the restoration project of the illustrious architect Franco Albini. The main objective of the work presented is to return, also graphically, new reconstructive hypotheses of the fortified system of Montecatini Val di Cecina, on the basis of the acquisitions resulting from the profitable overlap between the archival documentation and the results of the survey.

Abstract:
Abstract: The article will examin one of Le Corbusier's more emblematic works: the Ronchamp Chapel. The aim is to discover some of the intentionalities hidden within the design of this work by the swiss architect. It will start with the following considerations of Le Corbusier about the Ronchamp chapel:“it began with the acoustics of the landscape taking the four horizons as a reference...to respond to these horizons, to accomodate them, shapes were created…” And: “ Shapes make noise and silence; some speak and others listen...”And again: “ Ear can see proportions. It's possibile to hear the music of visual proportion” (Le Corbusier). The article sustains that the church is nothing but a giant acoustic machine dedicated to Virgin Mary which main purpose is the listening of the prayers. Infact in the Christian religion Mary is the very vehicle between God and man , she has a human but also divine nature since she is the mother of Jesus. To get in contact with the divine it is necessary to pray Mary, she can listen to man's prayers but she can also pass down God's word to man. In support of this hypothesis there stands an analogy between the chapel's map and the image section of a human ear, highlighting the coincidence between the altar position and that of cochlea, which shape is so dear to le Corbusier that he makes use of it very often in his work. Keywords: Ronchamp; acoustic landscape; human ear, architecture as chrystallized music. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/LC2015.2015.719
