Fulvio Androzzi

He bore the title doctor of both laws, probably having graduated from the University of Camerino, and became vicar general to Berardo Bongiovanni, Bishop of Camerino, and was appointed to a canonry in the Basilica della Santa Casa in Loreto.

[1] In December 1555 he joined the Society of Jesus, founded just 15 years previously, and returned to Marche as an itinerant missionary.

[1] He was active helping victims of the plague in 1570–1571, and began the extension of the college buildings (completed in 1580).

[1] After Androzzi's death, his manuscript writings were prepared for publication by Francesco Adorno, rector of the Jesuit college in Padua, and were printed in Milan at the press of Pacifico Pontio in 1579, under the title Opere spirituali del R. P. Fulvio Androtio della Compagnia di Gesù.

The collection went through many reprints between 1580 and 1626, in Milan, Venice and Naples, and individual treatises were translated into all the major languages of Western Europe.
