Johannes Busaeus , also Jean Buys , (born April 14, 1547 in Nijmegen , Spanish Netherlands , † May 30, 1611 in Mainz ) was a Dutch Jesuit and theological writer.

Life

Busaeus joined the Society of Jesus on July 1, 1563 and studied philosophy at the Jesuit Novitiate in Cologne . He studied at the "Electoral College" of the Society of Jesus in Mainz, where he was one of the first Jesuits to obtain a diploma in philosophy in 1564. Busaeus made his preliminary studies for the priesthood at the Collegio Romano , a Jesuit school from which the Pontifical Gregorian University emerged after the end of the Papal States in 1870 . There he befriended Johann Schweikhard von Kronberg , who later became the Archbishop and Elector of Mainz, and there he was ordained a priest.

His brothers were the Jesuit Peter (1540–1587) and Thomas Buys (1548–1585).
