Franciscan Spirituality: Synthesis, Antithesis is a book written by Valentin M. Breton that explores the spiritual teachings and practices of the Franciscan tradition. The book is divided into two parts, the first part being a synthesis of the Franciscan spirituality, and the second part being an antithesis that challenges and critiques certain aspects of the tradition.In the first part of the book, Breton provides an overview of the key themes and values of Franciscan spirituality, such as poverty, humility, and simplicity. He also discusses the life and teachings of St. Francis of Assisi, the founder of the Franciscan order, and how his example continues to inspire and guide Franciscans today.The second part of the book takes a critical look at certain aspects of the Franciscan tradition, such as its relationship with power and authority, its treatment of women, and its approach to social justice issues. Breton argues that while the Franciscan tradition has many admirable qualities, it is not without its flaws and limitations.Overall, Franciscan Spirituality: Synthesis, Antithesis offers a comprehensive and thought-provoking exploration of the Franciscan tradition and its relevance for contemporary spirituality. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in exploring the teachings and practices of this rich and complex spiritual tradition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
