Although scholars have begun to focus on specific regions such as Congo, Ethiopia, and Zimbabwe, a comprehensive picture of the entire Jesuit experience on the continent has hitherto been lacking. In a condensed yet accessible way, Jesuits in Africa fills that lacuna. Narrating the story century by century from the time of St. Ignatius of Loyola (c.1491–1556), founder of the Jesuits, to that of Pedro Arrupe (1907–91, in office 1965–83), twenty-eighth superior general of the Society, this book makes Jesuit history in Africa available to a general readership while offering scholars a broad view in which specialized topics can be conceived and deepened.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments   Introduction   1 Sixteenth Century: Kongo, Ethiopia, Mozambique\/Zimbabwe, and Angola   2 Seventeenth Century: West Africa, Ethiopia, Mozambique, Angola, and Kongo   3 Eighteenth Century: Ethiopia, Mozambique, and Angola   4 Nineteenth Century: Algeria, Fernando Pó, Sudan, Egypt, Madagascar, Zambezi, and Congo   5 Twentieth Century: Continuation, Consolidation, and Expansion   Conclusion   Bibliography    Documents in the Monumenta historica Societatis Iesu (MHSI) Series    Other Published Primary Sources    Secondary Sources    Online Sources   Index","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210822017367,"sku":"9789004462489","price":71.44,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/jesuits-in-africa-a-historical-narrative-from-ignatius-of-loyola-to-pedro-arrupe-9789004462489","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
