Description

Explore the complex and often misunderstood history of the Jesuits with this scholarly examination from Brill's Jesuit Studies series. From their founding in 1540 by Ignatius of Loyola, the Society of Jesus has been surrounded by myth and misinformation, viewed by some as saints and by others as devils incarnate. This volume examines how historians have worked to dispel centuries of misconceptions about the order, building on the groundbreaking work of John O'Malley's The First Jesuits (1993) and the subsequent international scholarly attention the Jesuits have received. Ideal for students, researchers, and anyone interested in religious history, church institutions, and the evolution of Catholic thought, this book provides critical analysis and historical context for understanding one of Christianity's most influential and controversial orders.
