This brief volume discusses several of the central elements of human person as found in those works of the Franciscan theological tradition which, when taken together, most sufficiently describe these qualities. As the tradition developed over the years, the intuitions and insights of St., Francis and St. Claire of Assisi concerning the human person were developed and/or restated in language better understood by the people of a particular era. Two of the most famous early Franciscan theologians, Bonaventure and John Duns Scotus, did just that. This volume will, by drawing on the wisdom on the Franciscan tradition, contribute in a similar way to an understanding of the human person today Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

From the Author's Introduction
It is humankind that now faces the dilemma concerning whether to choose life or to choose death (Deut. 30:15-18). The Franciscan way is to choose life and love. It is to let go of the egotistic pride of individualism and the fear of failure and to open the human heart to God’s longing and loving embrace. Then, as one loved beyond measure, the beloved of God turns outward to the world–to family, friends, associates, the quarrelsome ones, the despicable and the despised, and, yes, even in an age of terrorism, to the enemy–and seeks to love them into life. This is the challenge, the possibility and the great hope that the Franciscan understanding of the human person holds out to the world.
