Epistolary Furor Surrounding the expulsion of the Jesuits from the Philippines / Jose S. Arcilla ,S.J. - 4 0 16; Jose S. Arcilla, S.J.; 5 (Quezon City : Office of Research and Publications, Ateneo de Manila University)
ABSTRACT : unknown to many, the Royal pragmatic expelling the jesuits from the Philippines precipitated a power struggle between Archbishop Sancho de Santa Justa, who harbored strong hatred for the jesuits and the Oidor, domingo de Blas Basaraz, who was a strong supporter of the Jesuits. Basaraz's confiscation of pamphlets denouncing the jesuits led to moves and counter-movers from both sides, which led to important outcomes. This paper documents these events and their aftermath, which made the Jesuit expulsion from Philippines not an easy process for its implementors.
