INTERPRETING VISUALS
How is Protestantism different
from Eastern Orthodoxy and
Roman Catholicism?
The Jesuits The Council of Trent was just one force that fostered
the Counter Reformation. The Church also recognized and supported
new religious orders. One of the most important new religious orders
was the Society of Jesus, or the Jesuits (JEHZH•oo•ihts). The Spaniard
St. Ignatius of Loyola formed the Jesuits in the early 1530s.
In some ways, the Jesuits were more like a military unit than a
religious order. A strong central authority commanded the order.
Jesuits learned obedience and discipline. Their education was based
on a balance of faith and reason. They studied the teachings of St.
Thomas Aquinas, whom you read about in Chapter 10. They also
studied languages so they would have the tools to spread Catholicism
across Africa, Asia, and the Americas. Such training allowed the
Jesuits to play an active role in supporting the Counter Reformation.
