Life

Born 3 December 1553, Gumiel de Izán (diocese of Osma); died 20 September 1612. [Hurter, vol. III, col. 589]

Jesuit; taught philosophy at Segovia, then theology at Compostela, Barcelona, Salamanca, Valladolid and for many years at Rome. [Hurter, vol. III, col. 589]
Aquaviva counted him among the most learned men of the Society; so well read and of such memory that he seemed a library in himself, and was consulted as an oracle in doubts. [Hurter, vol. III, col. 589]
Wrote Disputationes in I-II S. Thomae (Barcelona, 1607-1609; Lyons, 1611) and Commentarii in II-II de contractibus (Lyons, 1617, posthumous). Hurter: in moral matters a weighty author. [Hurter, vol. III, col. 589]

His Moral System, as Our Authors Report It

Every report quoted in the author's own words and linked to its place; point at a name to see his words. Haringer's signs give St. Alphonsus's judgment as Haringer found it in St. Alphonsus's works (his notice, Gury-Ballerini, 1884, p. XI); a sign on a writer the 1884 editor added to the list is the editor's own, and is said to be his.
