La Universidad De La Compañía Como Instrumento De Misericordia, J. Matthew Ashley May 2024

La Universidad De La Compañía Como Instrumento De Misericordia, J. Matthew Ashley

Jesuit Higher Education: A Journal

La universidad de hoy se enfrenta al desafío de reimaginar el paradigma fundamental a partir del cual trabaja, con el fin de responder mejor a desafíos políticos, culturales y ecosistémicos sin precedentes. Una universidad católica y jesuita puede y debe hacer este trabajo haciendo uso de los recursos extraídos desde sus raíces en la espiritualidad ignaciana, ofreciéndolos a todos los miembros de la universidad, sean o no cristianos o existencialmente comprometidos con esta espiritualidad. Los escritos del Papa Francisco sobre la educación mientras era arzobispo de Buenos Aires y sus escritos sobre la espiritualidad ignaciana en general dan pistas sobre …


El Eslabón Perdido De La Pedagogía Jesuita, Alberto Núñez, Josep M. Lozano May 2024

El Eslabón Perdido De La Pedagogía Jesuita, Alberto Núñez, Josep M. Lozano

Jesuit Higher Education: A Journal

La pedagogía jesuita ha experimentado una renovación importante en los últimos cincuenta años. En este periodo, se han elaborado diversas formulaciones inspiradoras de su visión educativa. A pesar de mantener un lenguaje y espiritualidad comunes, reconocibles a lo largo de los años, existe el riesgo de que sólo sea vivida por una minoría de personas en las instituciones educativas. Este artículo propone una relectura de la Ratio Studiorum (RS) que ofrece una comprensión más precisa y completa de la pedagogía jesuita. Esta incluye tres elementos clave: el gobierno y administración de la institución, el enfoque en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje …


John O’Malley And Jesuit Education: A Journey Into Humanism, Cristiano Casalini, Alessandro Corsi Dec 2022

John O’Malley And Jesuit Education: A Journey Into Humanism, Cristiano Casalini, Alessandro Corsi

Jesuit Higher Education: A Journal

This article reflects upon the impact of the work of John W. O’Malley, S.J. (1927–2022), on the field of the history of Jesuit education. In The First Jesuits (1993), O’Malley provided an innovative approach to the subject that refuted some long-standing preconceptions about the way Jesuit schools and universities had originally developed. The approach that he took to to the topic throughout the 1990s and 2000s allowed him to identify two intertwined educational traditions at the heart of the Jesuit pedagogical model: the humanistic tradition of the Renaissance period, based on the Isocratic concept of pietas, and the scholastic …


Reimagining The Humanistic Tradition: Using Isocratic Philosophy, Ignatian Pedagogy, And Civic Engagement To Journey With Youth And Walk With The Excluded, Allen Brizee Jun 2022

Reimagining The Humanistic Tradition: Using Isocratic Philosophy, Ignatian Pedagogy, And Civic Engagement To Journey With Youth And Walk With The Excluded, Allen Brizee

Jesuit Higher Education: A Journal

The world is in a perilous place. Challenged by zealots, autocrats, a pandemic, and now a war in Europe, elected officials and their constituents no longer exchange ideas in a functioning public sphere, once a hallmark of the humanistic tradition. The timeliness of the Universal Apostolic Preferences (UAPs), therefore, is profound as they provide beacons of light for dark times. In this article, I trace Isocratic philosophy through Ignatian pedagogy and contemporary civic engagement to argue that we can use these three models to help us Journey with Youth and Walk with the Excluded. Key to this approach is a …

Seeing With New Eyes: Costa Rican Pilgrimage As Transformation, Elizabeth C. Reilly, Katherine Brown

Jesuit Higher Education: A Journal

In summer 2019, eleven faculty and staff members from Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, California embarked on an immersion study trip to Costa Rica. An integral part of the university’s commitment to mission and identity, it is one of a number of opportunities for its members to explore the mission and its Jesuit identity within a global context. Framed around the Ignatian principle of pilgrimage, this article describes the focus and goals for the study trip, pre-trip preparations, and the trip itself. We highlight some of the activities in which faculty and staff participated and summarize their reflections of …


The Emergence Of A Lay Esprit De Corps: Inspirations, Tensions, Horizons, Christopher Pramuk Jan 2019

The Emergence Of A Lay Esprit De Corps: Inspirations, Tensions, Horizons, Christopher Pramuk

Jesuit Higher Education: A Journal

Likening the Ignatian tradition as embodied at Jesuit universities to a family photo album with many pages yet to be added, the author locates the “heart” of the Ignatian sensibility in the movements of freedom and spirit (inspiration) in the life of the community. There are no fixed entry points or criteria of inclusion and exclusion for Ignatian lay educators save a desire to share in the questions proper to all the university disciplines that pull us toward a horizon beyond ourselves. Nevertheless a number of creative tensions endemic to Jesuit apostolic life from the beginning and also new challenges …
