Ignatius Press

About Ignatius Press

Founded in 1978 by Father Joseph Fessio, SJ, Ignatius Press emerged from a profound desire to make the works of leading 20th-century Catholic theologians accessible to English-speaking audiences. Inspired by mentors like Father Henri de Lubac and the teachings of then-Professor Joseph Ratzinger (later Pope Benedict XVI) and Father Hans Urs von Balthasar, Father Fessio established a publishing house dedicated to the intellectual and spiritual enrichment of the Catholic faithful. Over the decades, Ignatius Press has grown significantly, expanding its catalogue to include a diverse array of authors and genres, all while maintaining its core mission of fidelity to the Catholic Church's evangelising efforts. It's a cornerstone for those looking to buy Catholic literature and media.
