PHILIP VON HARTUNG.
This very popular preacher was born on the 25th
October, 1629, at Theising, in Bohemia. He entered
the novitiate of the Jesuit order in 1645, at the age of
sixteen. He spent his early life in different colleges,
but finally he ascertained that his vocation was to be a
preacher, and thenceforth he devoted his time and energies to the composition of sermons. He preached most
frequently at Sternberg, in Moravia, and at Glogau, in
Silesia. He died at Eger on the 9th March, 1682,
aged fifty-three. The greater part of his works were
published after his decease.
