In the 13th century, a new era of peace and justice seemed to flourish under the influence of the teachings of Francis of Assisi. Through a journey through the Italian region of Umbria, Vicente Valero explores the mystical and artistic mark that the saint left on the landscape and on the work of great thinkers and artists throughout the ages. With elegant and reflective prose, the author analyzes how the figure of Francis, a defender of voluntary poverty and a critic of the pursuit of wealth, remains a fundamental reference for understanding European culture and utopian movements.
