Selected proceedings from the 2018 International Symposium on Jesuit Studies have been published in a new, bilingual volume in Brill’s Jesuit Studies book series. Francisco Suárez (1548–1617): Jesuits and the Complexities of Modernity consists of 19 essays over five categories: Metaphysics; Religion, Law, Society; Political Theories; Psychology; and Legacy. The full table of contents appear below.
The volume, co-edited by Robert Maryks and Juan Antonio Senent de Frutos, emerged from an international symposium on the thought of Suárez. The event was co-organized in Seville, Spain, by the Departamento de Humanidades y Filosofía at Universidad Loyola Andalucía and the Institute for Advanced Jesuit Studies at Boston College. “Suárez,” according to the publisher, “was a theologian, philosopher and jurist who had a significant cultural impact on the development of modernity. Commemorating the four-hundredth anniversary of his death, the symposium studied the work of Suárez and other Jesuits of his time in the context of diverse traditions that came together in Europe between the late Middle Ages, the Renaissance, and early modernity.”
