 Though Fathers Nuremberg and Nadasi compiled collections of a similar character, they did not bear the name Menologium.The earliest Jesuit compilation which is so styled seems to have been printed in the year 1669.A more elaborate Menologium was that compiled by Father Patrignani in 1730, and great collections were made during the last century by Father de Guilhermy for the production of a series of such menologies, divided according to the groups of provinces of the Society called "Assistencies".
