Description:

Andre Cirino, OFM and Josef Raischl

"Franciscan Solitude" explores the historical and theological roots of the eremitical dimension of the Franciscan tradition. It includes important contextual and critical studies of Francis's "Rules for Hermitages". This book makes a significant contribution to contemporary Franciscan studies by drawing together theory and practice in an area where, even if resources have been sorely lacking, there has been a growing interest and deepening desire to follow Christ after the example and teaching of Francis of Assisi.
