Book excerpt: The sources contained in this volume offer an introduction to early liturgical texts dedicated to Francis of Assisi. Frequently ignored by scholars, these crucial sources present a collection of incredible perspectives on how religious communities, both within and outside the Franciscan Order, constructed their identities as they interpreted and performed the life of Francis of Assisi in prayer. The team of international scholars responsible for the volume's introductory essays in the volume, Marco Bartoli, Jacques Dalarun, Timothy J. Johnson, and Filippo Sedda, maintain that this "Prayed Francis" played a decisive role in the reception and retrieval of the Franciscan story throughout the changing context of the thirteenth century and beyond.
