1930. The phrase "little flowers" has, in English, a vague aroma of
sentiment and propaganda, and by virtue of the diminutive it has
acquired a similar flavor even in Italian. Suppose this collection
of tales has been called the "Franciscan Anthology," a title at
once more exact and more majestic in its associations? Or suppose,
somewhat facetiously, but still within its spirit, it had been
known as the "Selected Miracles of Saint Francis and His Brethren?"
The story as regards the English speaking world, might have been
different. Illustrated.
