Description
Bonaventure of Bagnoregio was a great theologian, Franciscan, and saint. His lifetime work and his many writings have given us the key to understanding not only the Franciscan movement and its gifts to the Church and humanity, but have lcd us to a deeper understanding of God. In this masterful anthology Johnson shows us that Bonaventure's writings cannot be reduced to simple genius, random chance, or singular inspiration. He illustrates how they are linked to communities of men and women, religious and lay. who serve as the matrix for Bonaventure's profund spiritual journey. In the same way Bonaventure's life cannot be understood without reference to Francis of Assasi and those who follow his way. This is the perfect introduction to Saint Bonaventure and the Franciscan spiritual way. - from Amzon
