GHISLERI, MICHELE. - Theologian and exegete, b. in Rome in 1563, d. there on 27 June 1646. A religious of the Theatine Order (1584), he had as his master Antonio Agellio, from whom he learned the Oriental languages and a great love for Sacred Scripture, of which he became an eminent scholar. A friend and confessor of Giovanni Battista Vives, he inspired in that pious prelate the idea of an international college for the missions (the germ of the College of Propaganda).
