Compare Impelling Spirit by Joseph F Conwell, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

A book about Jesuit origins, this text studies an early document ghost-written for Pope Paul III by one of the first Jesuits. This document-recently rediscovered in the Vatican archives and never-before-published-clearly reveals how the first Jesuits understood themselves and their order. It goes beyond commentary on a single document. It situates early Jesuit decisions in the ferment of the Reformation, bringing in key people-popes, cardinals, early Jesuits and other religious leaders, the saints and the strugglers. | Impelling Spirit by Joseph F Conwell, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
