Abstract

[...]the work provides detailed information about missionary strategies, as a letter of 1665 from a Persian Carmelite to the general of the order in Rome makes clear: "To confound Persian temerity accomplished persons are needed, for these people are very studious-they have infinite esteem for a Religious who can stand up to them (in argument)" (1:448).
