Description

A distinctive and modern telling of the history of the Society of Jesus in America

The history of America cannot be told without the history of religion, the history of American religion cannot be told without the history of Catholicism, and the history of Catholicism in America cannot be told without the history of Jesuits in America.

Jesuits in the United States offers a panoramic overview of the Jesuit order in the United States from the colonial era to the present. David J. Collins, SJ, describes the development of the Jesuit order in the US against the background of American religious, cultural, and social history. He investigates the relationship of Jesuit activities in America to those in Europe and, by the twentieth century, to those around the world as US Jesuits are increasingly assigned to "foreign missions" and the political and religious connections between the US and the world, especially Latin America, grow. He covers the papacy's suppression of the order and its restoration period. He also reflects on the future of the order in light of its past.

Readers familiar with the Jesuit tradition and those who are new to it will learn from this book's distinctive and modern perspective--using twenty-first century scholarship and opinions on Jesuit slaveholding, the sexual abuse crisis, and other contemporary issues--on 500 years of Jesuit history in the United States.
