| description |
This is the first truly global study of the Society of Jesus’s early missions.
Up to now historians have treated the early-modern Catholic
missionary project as a disjointed collection of regional missions rather
thanas a single world-encompassing example of religious globalization.
Luke Clossey shows how the vast distances separating missions led to
logistical problems of transportation and communication incompatible
with traditional views of the Society as a tightly centralized military
machine. In fact, connections unmediated by Rome sprung up
between the missions throughout the seventeenth century. He follows
trails of personnel, money, relics, and information between missions in
seventeenth-century China, Germany, and Mexico and explores how
Jesuits understood space and time and visualized universal mission and
salvation. This pioneering study demonstrates that a global perspective
is essential to understanding the Jesuits and will be required reading for
historians of Catholicism and the early-modern world. |
