520 | |a This article presents two case studies that explain and contextualize a new documentary discovery for the history of the Litterae Indipetae. These letters of petition for the 'Indies' addressed to the Superior General are a genre unique to the Society of Jesus and the focus of substantial scholarly attention in recent years. Through analysis of the various known sources connected to the Indipetae, as well as of the petitions themselves, the article introduces and transcribes a new source connected to them in the form of three original and autograph letters now preserved at ARSI. The letters were sent as replies to petitioners from Superior General Muzio Vitelleschi (1563-1645; elected 1615). The essay reconstructs and analyses the relevant documentation relating to the missionary vocations of the letters' two recipients, Georg Harman and Ernest Pfliegl, Austrian Jesuits who applied for the East Asian missions. While recent studies of the Generals' letter-books confirmed how Superiors General answered some Litterae Indipetae, this is the first time that the original letters sent from Rome to individual petitioners have been identified in ARSI.
