Summary/Abstract: The present study represents an attempt to reconstruct the atmosphere of the Jesuit Superior School of Trnava at the half of the 18th century. The Jesuit College of Trnava is the place where the members of the first generation of Romanian alumni (Inochentie Micu, Petru Aron, Gherontie Cotore, Grigore Maior) had studied. They had been trained in the Catholic Superior Schools of Europe. They acquired discipline and training here owing to their school syllabuses, teachers and students re-united in Trnava in 1725-1746. The author therefore describes the level of the school: teachers and their publications, the College Library, and the alumni’s life during College.
