Theology Today Ignatius of Loyola: Spiritual Exercises and Selected
Works edited by George E. Ganss, S.J. with the collaboration of
Parmananda R. Divarkar, S.J., Edward J. Malatesta, S.J., and Martin
E. Palmer, S.J. preface by John W. Padberg, S.J. I close by asking
God through his infinite goodness to give us the perfect grace to
know his most holy will and fulfill it completely. May it please
the Sovereign Goodness that everything be ordered to his holy
service and continual praise. Ignatius of Loyola (1491-1556)
September 27, 1990 marks the 450th anniversary of the foundation of
the Society of Jesus in 1540, and the year 1991 brings the 500th
anniversary of the birth of its founder, St. Ignatius of Loyola. In
these circumstances the present volume will contribute to the study
of Ignatius' charism and of the ministries he initiated-in
Christian education, foreign missions, and other fields. It
presents his four major writings: the Autobiography and Spiritual
Exercises in their entirety, and his Spiritual Diary and
Constitutions of the Society of Jesus in selections so chosen as to
give an overview of each work. It also offers ten samples of his
almost 7,000 letters. Ample explanations are given in the
introductions and commentaries by way of notes. The General
Introduction is an intellectual and spiritual biography that
sketches the fascinating steps by which, largely through mystical
favors from God, Ignatius reached his inspiring worldview, with
everything in it ordered to the greater glory of God. In his
Exercises we find a synthesis of his chief spiritual principles,
and in his Constitutions an example of his organizational ability.
The Autobiography tells of his mystical illuminations and gifts,
and the Spiritual Diary lets us peer deeply into his heart in his
most intimate dealings with God. His writing reveals many facets of
the warm personality of this influential saint.
