Giovanni (Da Parma) Livres

The 'Lady Poverty' is a thirteenth-century allegory that became a cornerstone of the Franciscan spiritual tradition. Attributed to Bonaventure of Bagnoregio, this powerful text portrays Poverty as a beautiful and virtuous woman who leads her followers to embrace a life of simplicity and humility. This edition includes a new introduction and annotations by the noted Franciscan scholar David Flood.
