Ignatius of Loyola (CWS): Spiritual Exercises and Selected Works (Classics of Western Spirituality (Paperback))

A high Quality book, well written in an easy to read styleA specialist subject good for the beginner or any level of Ignation Spirituality

Lengthy and thorough; all the great works of St Ignatius.

This is part of the "Classics of Western Spirituality" series, and focusses upon the life and works of St. Ignatius of Loyola. The volume contains a lot of works - a comprehesive contemporary Biography, a copy of Ignatius' Autobiography, sections from the Consitutions of the Society of Jesus, the Spiritual Diary and most importantly the Spiritual Exercises.I used this manual for the exercises rather than for anything else. It is an excellent and up-to-date whilst uncorrupted translations, and they are laid out in an unusually helpful manner. The biography sets the exercises into context and was a surprising help.I would struggle to criticise this book.
