The Jesuit William Darrell (1651–1721) was born in Buckinghamshire and became a Jesuit priest in 1671 and had a distinguished career as scholar and teacher both in England and in France. The work was first published as The Gentleman Instructed in the Conduct of a Virtuous and Happy Life, in 1704 and the Italian translation in 1728. The work was very popular in Britain and was frequently reprinted. "It was published with a supplement, 'A word to the ladies', in 1708 and was in its tenth edition by 1731. According to Dodd it was 'much admired and often reprinted' (Dodd's Church History, 3.494). It was translated into French by P. de Mareuil SJ in 1728 and also into Hungarian and Italian" (ODNB). Library Hub doesn't record or list any copy of the Italian translation in its subscribing libraries. OCLC records only one copy of the Italian transation, at Bibliotheque Cantonale et Universitair in Switzerland. The BL, however, has two copies, one the first edition of 1728 and the second edition of 1732.
