GETINO, LUIS ALONSO. - Writer of ecclesiastical history, b. at Lugueros (Spain) on 12 Nov. 1877, d. at Salamanca on 9 July 1946. A Dominican in the Convent of Padron (Coruña) on 14 Nov. 1893, he was professor of ecclesiastical history and theological loci in the Convent of St. Stephen in Salamanca (1901-1909).

He founded the theological journal La ciencia tomista, of which he was the first director (1910-13). He became rector of the College of St. Dominic in Oviedo from 1913 to 1916, then again director of La ciencia tomista (1916-22) and finally provincial of Spain (1922-26).

A tireless worker, he was a prolific and polished writer. He collaborated with various Spanish journals, especially La ciencia tomista. Among his volumes are remembered: Vida y procesos del maestro fr. Luis de León (Salamanca 1907); Historia del convento de S. Domingo el Real de Madrid (Madrid 1919); Documentos legislativos y históricos de las provincias hispano-americanas Ord. Praed. (2 vols., ibid. 1929). He also published various works of G. Tauler, of D. Soto, of Ludovico da Granata, of Francisco de Vitoria and of other Dominicans. By decree of 19 Feb. 1936 the work Del gran numero de los que se salven y de la mitigación de las penas eternas was placed on the Index.
