Saint Claire : Beyond The Legend
$18.99Add to cartMedieval scholar Marco Bartoli, as translated by Clare scholar Sister Frances Teresa Downing, reconstructs the charismatic personality of Clare of Assisi, a great medieval figure whose voice has been heard through the ages. Bartoli explores what has been said about Clare and what has not been said, between evidence and interpretation, between silence and memory, using the most important source for knowing Clare, the Legenda sanctae Clarae virginis ( The Legend of Saint Clare the Virgin), written by order of the people on the occasion of Clare’s canonisaton.
