Born at Florence, 1554; died 1606 at Rome, 17 May. He entered the Jesuit
novitiate 7 Nov., 1572; became rector of the Jesuit college at Nola; was master
of novices at Naples for five years; and finally appointed secretary of the
general Acquaviva, who in 1558 detailed him to write the history of the Jesuit
Order. This work comprises only the generalate of St. Ignatius. It was edited by
Sacchini, and appeared under the title "Historiæ Societatis Jesu prima pars"
(Rome, 1614, 1615, 1621; Antwerp, 1620; Cologne, 1620). It is written in the
form of annals, and is based chiefly on a life written by the saint's secretary,
de Polanco. Ranke, "Hist. of the Popes", III (London, 1903), 328, says of
Orlandini: "In his style of writing, as well as in the business of life, he was
exceedingly careful, accurate, and wary". The history was continued by Sacchini,
Possinus, Jouvancy, and Cordara. The sixth and last part, reaching to 1633, was
published at Rome in 1758. Other works are: "Annuæ litteræ Societatis Jesu, anni
1583-85" (Rome, 1585-86-88); "Vita Petri Fabri" (Lyons, 1617); the same under
the title "Forma sacerdotis Apostolici, expressa in exemplo Petri Fabri"
(Dillingen, 1647); and "Tractatus seu Commentarii in Summarium Constitutionum et
in regulas communes" ed. Soero (Roehampton, 1876). His "Vita Petri Fabri" has
been translated into French (Bordeaux, 1617) and Italian (Rome, 1629).
