In A Companion to Jesuit Mysticism, Robert A. Maryks provides thirteen unique essays discussing the Jesuit mystical tradition, a somewhat neglected aspect of Jesuit historiography that stretches as far back as the order’s co-founder, Ignatius of Loyola, his spiritual visions at Manresa, and ultimately the mystical perspective contained in his Spiritual Exercises. The volume’s contributions on the most significant representatives of the Jesuit mystical tradition—from Baltasar Álvarez to Louis Lallemant to Hugo Makibi Enomiya-Lassalle—aim to fill this lacuna in Jesuit historiography. Although intended primarily as a handbook for scholars seeking to further their own research in this area, the volume will undoubtedly be of interest to scholars and students of Jesuit studies more broadly.

“excellent volume ... a welcome introduction into Jesuit mysticism and beyond.”Philipp Reisner, Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf. In: Sixteenth Century Journal, Vol. 49, No. 2 (summer 2018), pp. 527-529.“Though written by active scholars, the essays in the volume are accessible to non-specialist readers; indeed, though the specialist has something to learn from these texts, they are probably most valuable for newcomers to this field.”Timothy W. O’Brien, S.J. In: The Way, Vol. 57, No. 1 (January 2018), pp. 115-116. “I highly recommend this edited volume for the light it casts on historical and contemporary engagements with Ignatian spirituality, both as an active contemplative tradition of prayer, and as a stepping stone into the mystical traditions of infused prayer and prayer of quiet. […] Readers of this volume—both academics and practitioners—will find these articles challenging, informative, and enriching.”Francis X. McAloon, S.J., Fordham University. In: Spiritus: A Journal of Christian Spirituality, Vol. 19, No. 1 (Spring 2019), pp. 168-172.
