In his fairly short life - he lived from 1181 or 1182 to 1226 -
Francis of Assisi wrote relatively little, but he taught, preached
and lived so influentially, so charismatically, that his voice
still speaks to us across the centuries. His Canticle of Brother
Sun has been paid little attention by literary critics, despite
being one of the first known works of literature in the Italian
language. Bringing the skills of a literary historian to the
subject, Brian Moloney comments on the canticle line-by-line and
considers its genesis to reveal it as a carefully composed work of
art, rather than as a spontaneous effusion of feeling.
