Tomás Sánchez (1550-1610) was a 16th-century Spanish Jesuit and famous casuist. In 1567 he entered the Society of Jesus. The chief work of Sanchez (and the only one he himself edited) is the Disputationes de sancto matrimonii sacremento. Soon after the death of Sanchez a second work appeared: Opus morale in præcepta Decalogi; the first folio volume was prepared by the author himself, but the second volume, as well as the whole of his third work, Consilia morale, had to be compiled from manuscript notes. These works also went through a series of different editions, and likewise drew upon themselves the accusation of laxity, especially with reference to the question of what is called “mental reservation.” A complete work. Dis-bound. FORN-MSB-0324-0700-HK1321
