Avvertimenti intorno a gli esercitii

1667 Spanish Saint Ignatius Loyola Illustrated Angels Demons Bible ART Italian

Ignatius of Loyola was a Spanish priest during the 15th-century, who is remembered for founding the Society of Jesus, or Jesuits. He composed various spiritual exercises, wrote simple meditations and prayers which contributed to the growth of Jesuit doctrine. According to Puhl, these Jesuit devotionals were designed with the intention of

"helping participants in religious retreats to discern the will of God in their lives." (Puhl, Ignatian Spirituality).

Ignatius aimed to have the reader develop spiritual discernment, or the ability to discern between good and evil spirits.

This particular Italian edition was published in Rome and is notable for the 12 impressive full-page engravings. Sebastián Izquierdo, a 17th-century Spanish Jesuit, collected and edited Ignatius's famed work, and published 'Avvertimenti intorno a gli esercitii' in 1665.
