520 |a The first four (out of eight) books of Daniello Bartoli’s (1608–85) officially commissioned Istoria della Compagnia di Gesù, dedicated to Asia, were devoted to recounting the miraculous deeds of Francis Xavier (1506–52). A century after his death, and thirty years after his canonization, Xavier was still an influential role model for all the Jesuits (especially those who desired to become missionaries in the “Indies”). Bartoli was a supreme stylist (Giacomo Leopardi later called him “the Dante of baroque prose”), and his talents were stretched to their limits by the imperative to celebrate Xavier’s miracles in ways that still accorded with the instructive genre of history. This article examines how Bartoli deployed his sources, which included not only previous biographies of the saint by João de Lucena and Orazio Torsellini, but unpublished letters and, most significantly, the report prepared for his canonization (the Relatio Rotae).
