About this product
Product Information
Father Ignacio Gordon, SJ, taught canon law (the Catholic Church's law) from 1960 until 1985 at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome, with a concentration on procedural law, or the laws on trials. By all testimonies, he was outstanding for the clarity of his teaching, his humble affection for his students, his indefatigable and hidden service to the Apostolic See, and his priestly zeal. Notable among his endeavors was an educational initiative for the ongoing formation of judges and other ministers of justice in ecclesiastical tribunals. In his teaching, he stressed the ecclesial importance and supernatural implications of procedural law in general, and the indispensability of the judicial protection of marriage in particular. Special efforts were made to make procedural law understandable to his students and to canonists in general, at a time when the Church was celebrating and implementing the teachings of the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council, as a result of which her law was undergoing a major revision. Father Gordon taught from the consistent canonical tradition, while also laying bare the latest developments in law and jurisprudence. He taught the entirety of the law on trials, producing numerous scholarly works on questions both timeless and new, giving marked emphasis to the problem of the excessive length of trials and the causes of delayed justice. An area of his particular attention and dedication was the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura-of which he was a consultor (referendary and later votans )-including both its proper law and its history. This history displayed, in part, why that Tribunal was the natural one to function as the supreme administrative tribunal of the Church. Father Gordon's contribution to the question of ecclesiastical administrative justice was among those leading the novel and dynamic discussion about it in the 1960s and 1970s.

Reviews
"The significant contribution of Father Ignacio Gordon, SJ, to the knowledge and practice of just canonical processes, at a time when canonical discipline in general was under heavy siege from a pervasive rejection of authority and of the rule of law, was offered in a humble and most discreet manner. For that reason, it has remained hidden to many. As one who was blessed to have Father Gordon as a professor and mentor, during some of the most significant years of his work, I saw, at first hand, the competence and the tirelessness with which he taught procedural law, that bod of discipline developed over the centuries of Church life, in order to serve, as much as humanly possible, the truth and, therefore, justice and love. During my years of service on the Suprem Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura, I had frequent occasion to thank God for all that Father Gordon had done to guarantee the administration of justice in the universal Church. Owing such a deep depth of gratitude to Father Gordon, I am greatly pleased to commend most highly the study of his contribution to canonical science and practice which Professor William Daniel has made with such devoted care over many years. Thanks to Professor Daniel, Father Gordon's extraordinary, yet often hidden, contributions to the Church's life will now be better known and appreciated."?Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke, Member of the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura "Father Gordon was filled with mercy for people who could not get justice in due time. He was aware of the primary necessity of the formation of a sufficient number of qualified ministers of justice, because otherwise there could not be a right administration of justice in the Church. His message remains valid, even after the recent reform of the process for the declaration of nullity of marriage."?Archbishop Frans Daneels, o. praem, Member of the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura "The late Reverend Father Ignacio Gordon, S.I. was an immanent professor of canon law, who provided an important contribution to the Apostolic Signatura, particularly on the occasion of the introduction of the contentious-administrative process. As an alumnus of his, I remember him first and foremost as a man of God and a sought after spiritual guide, as well as a demanding though always kind teacher."?Dominique Cardinal Mamberti, Prefect of the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura
