Ianua Linguarum, which was to have great infl uence on Comenius and other authors, was published in Salamanca at the beginning of the 17th century. The attribution of this work to the Jesuit William Bathe has led us to undertake the study of the Colegio de los Irlandeses, where it could have been written. The point of view taken focuses on the material nature of the building and dispenses with the more specific institutional aspects, but this does not prevent us from offering a quite broad perspective – especially as regards its economy – on what the life of this College was like from its foundation in 1592 until its move to the Jesuits’ building around 1770.
