Rev. James Patrick Brodrick (26 July 1891, Kingsland, Athenry – 26 August 1973), was an Irish Jesuit and writer. Brodrick was educated in Dublin and Stonyhurst. He joined the Jesuits in February 1910 at Manresa, London, and was ordained in 1923. Most of his working life was spent at Farm Street in London. He graduated MA from the University of London and was a contributor to periodicals such as ''The Tablet'' and ''The Month''. Father Brodrick published several books. Most of his career as a writer was almost exclusively dedicated to writing Jesuit History. His primary interest was the early history of the Society of Jesus. The first work to come from his pen was his two-volume biography of the Jesuit Cardinal Robert Bellarmine. In 1935 there followed his biography of St. Peter Canisius. Both works were considered major achievements and his success resides is that his work is not one of adulation and hero worship. ==Bibliography== * ''The life and work of Robert Cardinal Bellarmine'', i, ii, Burns, Oates & Washbourne, 1928. * ''St. Peter Canisius:a study of the Catholic reformation'', Sheed & Ward, 1935. * * ''The progress of the Jesuits, 1556-79'', Longmans Green, 1946 * ''St. Francis Xavier'', Burns, Oates & Washbourne, 1956 * ''Robert Bellarmine, Saint and Scholar'', Burns & Oates, 1961 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「James Patrick Broderick」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
