- Title
MARTYRDOM AND IDNETITY IN THE FRANCISCAN ORDER (THIRTEENTH AND FOURTEENTH CENTURIES).
- Authors
Heullant-Donat, Isabelle
- Abstract
The article focuses on the attempt of Franciscan to entail martyrdom and identity described in the political, social and religious context in the 13th and 14th centuries. It explores the recognition of sainthood through the papacy of pope Sixtus IV in 1418 as a cult of first Franciscans killed in Morocco. It relates the neglect of Dominicans to martyrdom, and the core sense given by St. Francis of Assisi on Franciscan orders. It also discusses the first and second versions of Franciscan Rules, the association of papal documents on the language modification of the rule, and the idea of Thomas of Celano on the analysis of martyrdom in the Franciscan community.
