Abstract: Robert Ignatius Burns was born in 1921 in San Francisco, CA, and attended the University of San Francisco (USF) before entering the Society of Jesus in 1940. Burns was ordained as a Roman Catholic priest in 1952, followed by a year of ascetical study in Florence, Italy in 1954. He did doctoral work in medieval history at John Hopkins University and University of Fribourg. While he primarily wrote on Islamic Spain and the medieval Mediterranean region, he was also a historian of Jesuit history in the Pacific Northwest, both of which exemplified his interest in frontier areas, colonial conquest, acculturation, cultural antagonism, exploitation, and inter-group relations. The collection consists of manuscripts, typescripts, galley sheets, and miscellaneous materials related to Burns's writings on Medieval Spanish history, the Crusades, and Muslim minorities in the Iberian Peninsula, as well as personal and academic correspondence, documents, and other materials.

Burns died at the age of 87 on November 22, 2008 in Regis Infirmary, Sacred Heart Jesuit Center, Los Gatos, CA.
His work includes some 30 books, more than 200 articles and chapters in books, 200 historical abstracts, and numerous reviews. His published books include, among others, Islam under the Crusaders: Colonial Survival in the Thirteenth-Century Kingdom of Valencia (1974), The Jesuits and the Indian Wars of the Northwest (1966), Medieval Colonialism: Postcrusade Exploitation of Islamic Valencia (1976), and Diplomatarium of the Crusader Kingdom of Valencia: The Registered Charters of its Conqueror, Jaume I, 1257–76, (1985–2007), 4 volumes.

Series 1: Publications 1958-2003

Language of Material: Materials are in English, Spanish, Catalan, Arabic, and Latin.

Scope and Contents

The series includes research, drafts, and other correspondence related to Burns's published books. Some materials are fragile and are housed in mylar. Diplomatarium of the Crusader Kingdom of Valencia (1985-2007) was originally a lecture and materials include lecture notes that are expanded upon in the book. Emperor of Culture (1990) was originally an article published in the December 1985 issue of Thought: Fordham University Quarterly. The correspondence includes references to this first publication. Chapters 15-17 of Islam Under the Crusaders (1974) were later included in Medieval Colonialism (1976), and Chapter 24 onward may have been integrated into other books as the chapter titles on the drafts do not align with what was published. Materials related to The Jesuits and the Indian Wars of the Northwest (1966) includes illustrations, photographs, and maps used in the book. The Worlds of Alfonso the Learned and James the Conqueror (1985) originated at a symposium on the topic and the correspondence and materials related to the symposium are included in this series.

Drafts are in original order, which largely follows the stages of publishing/writing.
