The volume explores the Franciscan compilationes as a crucial phase in the transmission of sources relating to Francis of Assisi, examining the literary, historical, artistic, and liturgical dimensions through which his memory was preserved, shaped, and disseminated. By bringing these perspectives into dialogue, the volume offers an interdisciplinary approach to Franciscan sources and their reception. It highlights the relationships between hagiographical writing, artistic production, and liturgical tradition, while exploring the broader cultural and religious contexts in which the memory of Francis of Assisi took shape. The compilationes emerge not merely as repositories of earlier testimonies, but as active instruments in the construction and transmission of Franciscan identity, whose influence extended well beyond the medieval period.

The volume explores the Franciscan compilationes as a crucial phase in the transmission of sources relating to Francis of Assisi, examining the literary, historical, artistic, and liturgical dimensions through which his memory was preserved, shaped, and disseminated. By bringing these perspectives into dialogue, the volume offers an interdisciplinary approach to Franciscan sources and their reception. It highlights the relationships between hagiographical writing, artistic production, and liturgical tradition, while exploring the broader cultural and religious contexts in which the memory of Francis of Assisi took shape. The compilationes emerge not merely as repositories of earlier testimonies, but as active instruments in the construction and transmission of Franciscan identity, whose influence extended well beyond the medieval period.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
