About this title

Synopsis

“The intention is to produce a clear, idiomatic, and readable translation.”
—LOUIS J. PUHL, SJ
Louis J. Puhl’s translation of The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius Loyola has been a standard in the Jesuit community and the world of Ignatian spirituality since its initial publication in 1951. The Exercises contain instructions for spiritual directors, prayer practices and meditations, principles for spiritual progress, and the timeless Rules for Discernment.
  The classic and trusted translation of St. Ignatius’s seminal work returns with a new layout and a foreword from Kevin O’Brien, SJ.
 This fresh presentation of Puhl’s translation offers the classic text unchanged yet redesigned for ease of reading. The new foreword from Kevin O’Brien, acclaimed author of The Ignatian Adventure, contextualizes the Exercises while emphasizing their enduring relevance.
