In 1569, Pius V dispatched an expeditionary force to assist the royal armies in the Third War of Religion in France. This was the background against which the Jesuit Antonio Possevino, commissioned by Superior General Francisco de Borja and the militant pope himself, published Il soldato christiano, a short book that outlined a spiritual model of the disciplined soldier, far from previous heroic and aristocratic archetypes. Copies of the catechism were distributed to the officers and chaplains who accompanied the contingent. This essay aims to analyze the conditions in which the papal military intervention in France was conceived and the effects of Jesuit catechesis on the men who made up the papal army, as well as their reactions to this encroachment of “confessionalization” into the profession of arms.

“Dextere sinistram vertere”：耶稣会士在前往法国的教皇远征军中担任军事牧师（1569-70 年）；纪律、道德改革和暴力

1569年，庇护五世派遣远征军在法国的第三次宗教战争中协助皇家军队。正是在这种背景下，耶稣会士安东尼奥·波塞维诺 (Antonio Possevino) 受总督弗朗西斯科·德·博尔哈 (Francisco de Borja) 和好战的教皇本人的委托，出版了《基督教之战》，这是一本简短的书，概述了纪律严明的士兵的精神模式，与以前的英雄和贵族原型相去甚远。教理问答的副本分发给随行的军官和牧师。本文旨在分析教皇对法国进行军事干预的设想条件，以及耶稣会教理对组成教皇军队的人的影响，以及他们对这种“忏悔化”进入军火行业的反应。 .
