Abstract
The recent revelations about slave owning at Georgetown in the nineteenth century have resulted in a renewed interest in Jesuit views on the frequently intertwined issues of slavery and race. In this volume, historians of the Society of Jesus address the question of race (and to some extent, of slavery) from various perspectives, from the order’s foundation in the mid sixteenth century to the present day, although the main focus is on the early modern period (the “Old Society”).
