Life of St. Francis of Assisi

- Biography of a Great Christian Saint and Preacher of God's Holy Gospel

Om Life of St. Francis of Assisi

Paul Sabatier's biography of the revered St. Francis of Assisi is written with passion and detail, examining and drawing upon many writings and texts concerning the great friar's life. In Life of St. Francis of Assisi we find a superbly researched account of the venerated saint. Himself a clergyman, Paul Sabatier was able to access the archives of the Franciscan monastic order together with diplomatic accounts of Francis and his activities. Writings attributed to St. Francis himself are also included, as are miscellaneous chronicles from elsewhere. Sabatier is keen to identify sources which are legendary or mythic, and those attributed directly to authors. Voracious in his examinations, even obscure fragments concerning the saint's life come into purview. Moreover, this edition contains all the original notes appended at the conclusion of each respective chapter.
