a society in the Church of Rome, founded in Italy by one Baccanari after the suppression of the Jesuits in 1773. Its object was to restore the order under a new name and form. Pius VI favored the organization, and it spread into Austria, Holland, and England. In 1814 its members were united with the re-established order of Jesuits, (See JESUITS).
