Life
Bernhard Grassoldt entered the Jesuit order in 1712 and, after completing his studies and taking his vows, devoted himself to the subject. He taught ancient languages and rhetoric and then philosophy and theology in various Jesuit colleges . Later he was prefect of studies and chancellor of the University of Olomouc . Due to his age, he then retired to the professorship in Brno, where he died in 1754 at the age of 59.
His writings, belonging to canon law and casuistry , were popular handbooks of their time and were popular with young priests. These works include:
- Candidatus sacramenti poenitentiae administrandi summaria et expedita notitia pro hoc munere congrue obeundo instructus , Olmütz 1741
- Expedita de impedimentis matrimonii notitia per planas quaesitorum et casuum illa concernentium resolutiones facilitata , Olmütz 1743
- Tractatus de contractibus ad justitiae bilancem applicatus per attemperatas quaesitorum et casuum illas concernentium resolutiones combinatus , Olmütz 1744
Grassoldt's ascetic work on the glory of the Lord's Mother ( Maria in coelos assumpta corona 12 stellarum incincta, totidem quaestionibus theologico-scripturisticis concelebrata , Olomouc 1747) is in the tradition of Baroque Jesuit Mariology .
