Latin
The French Jesuit Louis Janin, who provided Latin translations of Bartoli's Istoria della Compagnia di Gesu, also furnished a Latin translation that was first printed in Lyons (1672) and then served as a scholastic edition brought out in Cologne in 1674 "opusculum docentibus atque ac discentibus utile ac necessarium". To this was added a second translation into Latin by Johann Georg Hoffmann for the German world.
