Description: Medieval Franciscans prayed in hermitages and churches, on the road and in the piazza, with song or silence. The essays in this text foster a nuanced perspective on Franciscan beliefs and spiritual practices by resisting the temptation to reduce their myriad accounts of prayer to an exclusive, univocal spirituality.
