De Peculiari Pecuniae Fratrum Minor. Apud Syndicos Deposito (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781247770574)

De Peculiari Pecuniae Fratrum Minor. Apud Syndicos Deposito is a historical work exploring the peculiar financial situation of the Franciscan Friars Minor. The book delves into the complexities surrounding the Franciscans' relationship with money and property, particularly the concept of 'peculium' - private property - and its deposit with syndics.

Anonymous in origin, this work offers insights into the historical and canonical debates surrounding the Franciscans' vow of poverty and their practical necessities. It sheds light on the legal and theological justifications employed to navigate the challenges of communal living and the management of resources within the Franciscan order. Scholars of religious history, medieval law, and the Franciscan tradition will find this volume a valuable resource for understanding the nuanced dynamics of poverty, property, and power in the medieval Church.
