We will especially focus on the origin of the magazine and we will study some of its most significant personalities, such as Camilo M.ª Abad, Fr. Salaverri, Lucio Rodrigo, Fidel García Martínez, Ambrosio Sanz, Lorenzo R. Sotillo, Valeriano Andérez or Constancio Gutiérrez, most of whom were Jesuit Fathers, who have contributed with their papers to the development of scientific research in the fields of History, Theology, Philosophy, Moral and Canon Law, Sacred Scripture, etc. We will also analyse the evolution of the journal over time, its editors and the thematic field of the papers which have been published in it. Finally, we will carry out a detailed analysis of the issues of the first ten years, which we have studied, explaining the thematic contents of the papers published in the journal, its main authors at that time, etc.
