A history review always ends up throwing up a handful of proper names that have influenced its own course, that of St. Ignatius of Loyola is undoubtedly one of them. We owe the founding of the Society of Jesus to him, whose intellectual and formative mission has been strongly promoted since its approval in 1540. Hand in hand with the foundress of the Order of the Discalced Carmelites, St. Teresa of Jesus, was his role in the Counter-Reformation, which was a real challenge to the dominant status quo at the time and involved the preparation of the Church for modernity. St. Ignatius had to face all kinds of opposition and adversity: typical of those who undertake a revolution, adding to his exemplarity. Starting from his vital milestones as a guiding thread, the attentive reader will find new readings of the figure and work of Ignatius, collected during a series of conferences for the 500th anniversary of the saint's conversion, whose light continues to dissipate - four hundred years after his canonization by Pope Gregory XV and one hundred years since Pius XI declared him patron of the Spiritual Exercises - the shadows that continue to hover over the path that leads to clarity.

WHEN THE SHADOW SEES THE SUN is the realization of a concept of a brilliant creative mind that recognized certain things in himself, dark things. Things he thought he might not overcome. He conceived this idea, partly in jest, but more in earnest desire. A book focused on creative souls who experience depression and struggle with horrors that they exorcise by putting them to paper, but just can't always let go of that way. He wanted there to be a book out there for creatives (and others who might benefit) by creatives to address the struggles so many endure and to offer ways to cope, to deal, and to move on. To overcome.Logan L. Masterson lost his battle with what plagued him on March 29, 2016. And this book, his idea, is now a reality, to help bring to light the issues creative souls do endure, many similar to anyone else, some unique to our own little family. All proceeds from this book will go to a variety of charities, local as well as state and national, to promote suicide intervention and prevention as well as to assist with working through and surviving depression, with a focus being on those who are artists, writers, performers, etc. affected by this.
