In The Holy Land in Observant Franciscan Texts (c. 1480-1650)
Marianne Ritsema van Eck analyses the development of the complex
Observant Franciscan engagement with the Holy Land during the early
modern period. During these eventful centuries friars of the
Franciscan establishment in Jerusalem increasingly sought to
cultivate strong ideological ties between themselves and the Holy
Land, participating actively in contemporary literatures of
geographia sacra and Levantine pilgrimage and travel. It becomes
clear how the friars constructed a collective memory using the
ideological canon of their order - featuring Bonaventurian
theology, marvels of the east, cartography, apocalyptic visions of
history, calls for Crusade, and finally a pilgrimage-possessio of
the Holy Land by Francis.
