Petrus Canisius SJ (1521-1597)
Im Auftrag des Hugo von Sankt Viktor-Instituts Frankfurt am Main herausgegeben von Rainer Berndt SJ Seit dem Ende des Imperium Romanum im 5. Jahrhundert bis in die Neuzeit hat das Abendland in seinem Selbstverständnis Maß genommen an der griechisch-römischen Antike. Die mittelalterlich-frühneuzeitliche Geschichte des werdenden Europa in seinen Umbrüchen und Aufbrüchen ist als eine einzige Rezeptionsgeschichte verstehbar: In Begrifflichkeiten und Inhalten setzten sich die weltlichen und geistlichen Mächte in Beziehung zu Früherem; die sprachliche und kulturelle Vielfalt der Räume hat ihre gemeinsame Wurzel in der Levante; die alltäglichen religiösen Kontinuitäten genauso wie deren...
The Reform of Christian Doctrine in the Catechisms of Peter Canisius
The catechisms of Peter Canisius highlight the struggle within the Catholic Church to reframe Christian identity after the Protestant Reformation. In contrast to the defensive catechesis of Rome, Canisius's catechisms proposed to achieve orthodoxy by encouraging Christian piety.
Catechism of St. Peter Canisius
This book is a reformatted edition of the original work as it first appeared in the English language in the year 1622. St. Peter Canisius of the Company of Jesus originally composed his catechism in Latin as an easy handbook for people ""of a simpler sort."" It's use by the Jesuit fathers in Germany during the time of the Protestant Revolution was instrumental in saving half of that country from the slavery of disbelief. St. Peter Canisius' catechism, or ""Sum of Christian Doctrine,"" has been translated into over 500 languages, but is only just recently to be found in carefully updated, modern English.

Saint Peter Canisius
"Author, preacher, catechist, and builder of schools, Saint Peter Canisius was a leading Jesuit force in the central European Counter Reformation. By making his vows before Peter Favre in Mainz in 1543, he became the first German son of the Society of Jesus. When he died in 1597, he had founded eighteen colleges from Messina in Sicily to Hungary, written thirty-seven books, and inspired countless fellow Jesuits in their disputations with the rising tide of Reformers." "Originally published in 1935, this story reveals the early struggles of Canisius, his many years of dedicated leadership in the Society, and the history of his Summary of Christian Doctrine, which appeared in two Catechism versions and some 200 printings during his lifetime."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Early Modern Jesuits between Obedience and Conscience during the Generalate of Claudio Acquaviva (1581-1615)
The Society of Jesus was founded by Ignatius Loyola on a principal of strict obedience to papal and superiors’ authorities, yet the nature of the Jesuits's work and the turbulent political circumstances in which they operated, inevitably brought them into conflict with the Catholic hierarchy. In order to better understand and contextualise the debates concerning obedience, this book examines the Jesuits of south-western Europe during the generalate of Claudio Acquaviva. Acquaviva’s thirty year generalate (1581-1615) marked a challenging time for the Jesuits, during which their very system of government was called into doubt. The need for obedience and the limits of that obedience posed a...
