Spanish theologian Juan MartÃnez de Ripalda was born at Pamplona, Navarre, where entered the Society of Jesus (Jesuit Order) in 1609. He taught philosophy at Monforte, theology at Salamanca, and "was from there called to the Imperial College of Madrid, where, by Royal Decree, he taught moral theology. Later, he was named censor to the Inquisition and confessor of de Olivares, the favorite of Philip IV, whom he followed when he was exiled from Madrid." Ripalda is described by Southwell as "religious," subtle in argument, sound in opinion, clear & focused in expression, and well-versed in St. Augustine & St. Thomas. According to Drews, no Jesuit ever occupied this chair at the University of Salamanca with more honor." Notably, Hurter considers Ripalda, along with Lugo, "first among the contemporary theologians of Spain, and perhaps of all Europe."
