Abstract

Loyola was the founder and first Superior General of the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits). He wrote this set of meditations and spiritual exercises in the 1520s, for people looking for spiritual direction and to strengthen their faith. Loyola’s Spiritual Exercises are often practised during religious retreats like the one Stephen attends in Portrait of the Artist.
