- Title
S. IGNATIUS VULNERATUS ET CONVERSUS EST: Los tipos iconográficos ignacianos de la herida y la conversión en sus fuentes literarias y gráficas.

- Abstract
The cycle that narrates the process from the wound to the conversion of Ignatius of Loyola had, from its origins, a decisive importance for the Society of Jesus, since it was understood as the second birth of its founder. The genesis of the three iconographic types that form this cycle-Vulneratur, Sanatur à S. Petro and Legit libros pios- must be sought in the Vita written by Pedro de Ribadeneyra (1572) and in its subsequent graphic dissemination in the works of Pieter Paul Rubens (1609) and the Galle brothers (1610). After the canonization of St. Ignatius, Jesuit residences were filled with pictorial series that, in many cases, included representations of these iconographic types, which sought to spread devotion of the saint and depict him as a model to imitate.
