De Júlio César Escalígero a Luís da Cruz, S. J., tendo por referência o Concílio de Trento

As experiências dos descobrimentos ajudariam a moldar o conceito de humanitas, de pendor universal, cuja formação se há-de basear na leitura dos clássicos – a fé na exemplaridade do mundo clássico; Silvio Piccolomini, mais tarde Papa Pio II, acrescentaria àqueles a leitura dos Padres da Igreja, o Antigo Testamento, os Evangelhos e autores contemporâneos, como Leonardo Bruni. Através do studium, o homem atingia o seu pleno desenvolvimento, elevado ao grau superior da virtus, realizando um dos valores mais característicos dos Romanos, cuja formação em muito é idêntica à da aretê grega. Foi esta propensão conciliatória do pensamento greco-latino com a doutrina da Igreja que havia de inspirar a grande súmula da pedagogia humanista, cristalizada na Ratio Studiorum (1586, Pe. Acquaviva) da Companhia de Jesus, de cuja fundação se ocupou o teólogo Paiva de Andrade. O A. vai fixar a sua atenção nas concepções poéticas de César Escalígero, valorizando uma aproximação à retórica que, em simbiose harmoniosa, nos leva a atingir a suprema perfeição da linguagem humana, ao serviço do paradigma do vir bonus dicendi peritus, no contexto de um verdadeiro programa ético-político de renovação da sociedade.
