Yale Univ, Press, XXIX; 480 S., Abb. Broschiert. Sehr gutes Ex. - Ignatius of Loyola-knight and saint, mystic and ascetic, founder of the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits) - was one of the most influential and most complex figures in Western Christianity. This book, written by a psychoanalyst who is also a Jesuit, is the first work to investigate the inner life of Ignatius and the psychological motivations for the particular forms his spirituality and mysticism took. "A touching, poignant, and straightforward biography, written with clarity and . . erudition." - Robert Coles, The New York Times Book Review "The book of the year in Catholic biography. ... A modest, sensible, yet insightful reading that is never less than fascinating and endlessly informative. A must read." - George W. Hunt, S.J., Commonweal "Meissner shows considerable biographical skill, ably laying out the major stages in Ignatius's life: early adventures as a soldier, gallant, and libertine; conversion while recovering from a horrible cannonball wound; years of asceticism; visit to Jerusalem; founding of the Jesuits, etc. ... A first-rate biography."-Kirkus Reviews "A rigorous psychoanalytic study of the life and mind of the first Jesuit. It is a fearless . . . work by an author confident in his faith and in his psychoanalytic discipline, elucidating specific points at the intersection of divine action and unconscious structures." - Stanley A. Leavy, M.D. Selected as a Notable Book of the Year (1992) by The New York Times Book Review W. W. Meissner, S.J., M.D., is University Professor of Psychoanalysis at Boston College and is a training and supervising analyst at the Boston Psychoanalytic Institute.
