The Hackett edition of this classic of medieval philosophy and mysticism--a plan of pilgrimage for the learned Franciscan wishing to reach the apex of the mystical experience--combines the highly regarded Boehner translation with a new introduction by Stephen Brown focusing on St. Francis as a model of the contemplative life, the meaning of the Itinerarium, its place in Bonaventure's mystical theology, and the plan of the work. Boehner's Latin Notes, as well as Latin texts from other works of Bonaventure included in the Franciscan Institute Edition, are rendered here in English, making this the edition of choice for the beginning student.

The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola is a foundational work in Christian spirituality, outlining a series of meditations and contemplations for spiritual growth and discernment. Written in a clear and concise style, the book offers a structured guide for individuals seeking to deepen their relationship with God and find inner peace. Ignatius' emphasis on self-examination and prayer sets this work apart in the context of religious literature, making it a timeless resource for spiritual seekers. Ignatius of Loyola, the author of this influential work, was a Spanish Basque priest and theologian who founded the Society of Jesus, known as the Jesuits. His own spiritual journey and experiences with prayer and meditation inspired him to develop the Spiritual Exercises as a way to help others cultivate a deeper connection with God. Ignatius' background in military service also influenced the structured and disciplined approach of the Exercises. I highly recommend The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola to readers interested in exploring their faith and spirituality in a practical and impactful way. Ignatius' thoughtful reflections and guidance provide a valuable resource for anyone seeking to deepen their spiritual practice and discern God's presence in their lives.
