"À travers cet ouvrage, nous rendons un vibrant hommage à nos vaillants missionnaires franciscains belges, qui ont sacrifié leur jeunesse et quitté leur patrie pour l’évangélisation du Congo. L’occupation normale d’une mission était de 4 à 5 personnes: le P. supérieur, qui en général était en charge de l’église et la gestion de la mission; le P. directeur, responsable de l’école centrale, de l’internat et des petites écoles de brousse; le P. '’broussard'’, c’est-à-dire le missionnaire itinérant, qui à raison de trois semaines par mois, voyageait dans la brousse en visitant les villages et leurs chapelles-écoles, en célébrant la messe et les sacrements, en prêchant, en enseignant et en redressant les choses quand il le fallait...Et finalement, le '’Frère'’, c’est-à-dire le frère laïc, véritable factotum de la mission. La première génération de frères laïcs a énormément contribué au succès des missions et de l’évangélisation, comme maçons, menuisiers, garagistes, cultivateurs, instituteurs ou directeurs d’écoles. 'Les frères qui, sous l'inspiration de Dieu, voudront aller chez les Sarrasns et autres infidèles en demanderont le permission à leur ministre provincial. Les ministres, eux, ne le permettront qu'à ceux qu'ils jugeront capables de cette mission.' (Regula bullata, Chap. 12, 1-2)."--

"When Francis of Assisi started to use his family's resources for religious purposes, his father took him to court. It was there that Francis dispossessed himself of everything and began a new life that soon inspired others to follow. Within a century, members of this Order of Friars Minor were among the first to dedicate complete treatises to discussions of buying, selling, and the whole of human exchange that is known as economics. The natural question to ask - and the one proposed here - is whether there might be a connection between the two, between Franciscan poverty and Franciscan economic thought?"--

"This volume is a collection of essays written in honor of David Burr, emeritus professor at the Polytechnic University of Virginia (Blacksburg): a scholar who has spent a career researching and publishing on the multi-faceted phenomenon of the Spiritual Franciscans (late 13th-early 14th century) and, in particular, on the life and writings of Peter of John Olivi in southern France. Representing some of the finest scholars in the field these eighteen scholarly essays touch on aspects of both phenomena. Three essays are devoted to the historiography of David Burr; three are dedicated to medieval Apocalypticism; another seven deal specifically with Peter of John Olivi; and five final essays explore aspects of the Spiritual Franciscans, their precursors and adherents. Contributors are C. Colt Anderson, Marco Bartoli, Michael F. Cusato, Gilbert Dahan, Alberto Forni, Fortunato Iozzelli, Philip D. Krey, Robert E. Lerner, Warren Lewis, Michele Lodone, Kevin Madigan, Antonio Montefusco, Delfi I. Nieto-Isabel, Dabney G. Park, Sylvain Piron, Gian Luca Potestà, Marco Rainini, and Paolo Vian"--
