Quare, ut melius et elm'ius atque profundius unnsquisque nostrum, statum tarn nobilem imo et sublimem, ad quem quis a Deo est evectus, agnoscat, non irrationabiliter duximus banc disquisitionem seu dilucidationem proponere, quam que doctrina. et principiis theologicis evolvere intendimus.

This was a historic event both for our Faculty and for the University. As far as we know no Association of a kindred nature has ever existed within the walls of our venerable Institution. What prompted us to create this Association was, obviously, a keen desire to carry higher and higher the name of Our Faculty. In order to attain this end. we necessarily intended to create new interest in the study of our particular science: Theology.

It is for this reason that we are going to leave apart all the particular views of the authors singularly taken and contenting ourselves of the short bibliography mentioned in the foot-note (1), we intend classifying the causes which they mention into categories, viz : 1. Social causes: class interest and social distinction; :3. Administrative and Juridical causes: faulty administrative system, and confusion of courts and laws; a. Religious causes: Protestantism, Gallican theories and Jansenistic opposition; 4. Philosophic and Anarchic: causes: Illuministic movement and Ma.sonic propaganda; 5. Political causes: King~s weakness and appalling financial plight; 6. Constitutional causes: all-pervading idea of the people's sovereignty and the desire for a change in the form of government.
