title: “For the salvation of Russia”: Some Remarks on Russipetae in the Twentieth Century
abstract: Working on the "New" Society of Jesus's Indipetae involves dealing with a succession of problems and enigmas caused in large part by an archival arrangement that did not envisage a separate section for this sort of documentunlike that of the "Old" Society. Researching this form of correspondence, then, presents the historian with an archival challenge that involves negotiating a considerable range of documents while, to some extent, entrusting the success of the enterprise to chance discoveries.
