Transforming Spirituality

In the 25 years of its existence, Studies in Spirituality has
been an attentive observer of the significant changes that have taken
place in the field of spirituality. During this period, research in
spirituality shifted not only towards the centre of theological
reflection, it has also responded to a culture that sought to go beyond
the boundaries of theology, on the one hand, and to the experience of
globalisation on the other.
In this volume, Rossano Zas Friz De Col
S.l., Professor of Spirituality at the Institute of Spirituality of the
Pontifical Gregorian University (Rome), presents a list of thirty-one
articles previously published in Studies in Spirituality, which,
from his perspective, merit reprinting. The reader will find a
collection revolving around spiritual transformation as their center.
The reprinted articles are preceded by a reflection on twenty-five years
of Studies in Spirituality, in which professor Zas Friz decribes
how Studies in Spirituality brings spiritual transformation into
focus today, and how to understand that transformation in the present
globalized world.
