He is identified with the embrace of radical Evangelical poverty, simplicity and freedom, and the encounter with the Divinity through the created world. Emerging from the chaos and turbulence of plague- and war-ravaged 13th -century Italy, he remains a source of deep inspiration for many people in the contemporary world.

He is identified with the embrace of radical Evangelical poverty, simplicity and freedom, and the encounter with the Divinity through the created world. Emerging from the chaos and turbulence of plague- and war-ravaged 13th -century Italy, he remains a source of deep inspiration for many people in the contemporary world.
