Beskrivning
In An Overview of the Pre-suppression Society of Jesus in Spain, Patricia W. Manning offers a survey of the Society of Jesus in Spain from its origins in Ignatius of Loyola’s early preaching to the aftereffects of its expulsion. Rather than nurture the nascent order, Loyola’s homeland was often ambivalent. His pre-Jesuit freelance sermonizing prompted investigations. The young Society confronted indifference and interference from the Spanish monarchy and outright opposition from other religious orders. This essay outlines the order’s ministerial and pedagogical activities, its relationship with women and with royal institutions, including the Spanish Inquisition, and Spanish members’ roles in theological debates concerning casuistry, free will, and the immaculate conception. It also considers the impact of Jesuits’ non-religious writings.

Recensioner i media

“Manning’s work merits attention from scholars at all levels of study interested in the Society of Jesus in Spain. For those new to the field, it includes a glossary of commonly used terms and applicable English equivalents, as well as a comprehensive bibliography. Her panoramic view of Jesuit activity across multiple social sectors is sure to appeal to experts in the discipline as well since she attends to major events and personages while illuminating the Jesuits’ presence in the popular imagination throughout the essay.” Brandan Grayson, Anderson University. In: Renaissance Quarterly, Vol. 76, No. 1 (Spring 2023), pp. 295–297.
