| Summary: | That Ignatius was a mystic is widely acknowledged. But what kind of mystic? He does not fit into any traditional category. Hence the need to re-examine texts such as his Autobiography, the Spiritual Exercises and the Spiritual Diary.

What his opponents (including Melchor Cano) thought is also relevant and sheds light on many issues. Finally, there are questions that need to be asked today as we assume deeper ownership of the Ignatian heritage. |
