Black Pope: A History of the Jesuits is a comprehensive account of the Society of Jesus, also known as the Jesuits, written by M.F. Cusack. The book covers the origins and development of the Jesuits, from their founding by Ignatius of Loyola in the 16th century to their role in the modern world. Cusack explores the Jesuits' influence in politics, education, and religion, as well as their controversial history, including their involvement in the Inquisition and their suppression by the Catholic Church in the 18th century. The author also delves into the Jesuits' missionary work, particularly in the Americas and Asia, and their impact on global culture and society. Overall, Black Pope offers a fascinating and detailed look at one of the most influential and complex religious orders in history.In Roman Catholic circles, it is well known the Black Pope is the term used for the General of the Jesuits. Those Romanists who do not greatly love the Jesuits use the term to indicate the Black Pope rules the White Pope. This book discusses the change of religious opinion since the commencement of the current century, the influence of the Jesuit and how the Jesuits have been the great promoters of change in the creed of the Church of Rome.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
