1681 1ed Life of Jesuit Saint Francis de Borgia Society Jesus Ignatius BartoliSaint Francis Borgia was a 16th-century Spanish Jesuit priest who is often considered the most influential Jesuit following the founder, Saint Ignatius of Loyola.

A century after Borgia's life, Jesuit author Daniello Bartoli published a biographical sketch of Borgia.

Though, perhaps one of his most important works was history of the Iconoclast controversy from its earliest occurrences in 8th-century Byzantine disputes.

1691 History of Charles VIII France King of NAPLES Italian War Varillas 3v SETAntoine Varillas was a French historiographer who is remembered for his numerous historical accounts of French royals such as King Louis XI, Louis XII, Charles VIII, and even Saint Louis. Unfortunately, his writings received little recognition. As a result, his scholarly reputation was negatively impacted. It was not until much later that the public would show interest in his writings.
His 'History of Charles VIII' is an important history of late 15th-century France, the Italian War of 1494-98, and the fall Kingdom of Naples to France.
