Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like The Last Temptation of Christ, Saint Francis is a fictionalized biography of a widely venerated Christian figure: Francis of Assisi, whose renunciation of his young man’s life of leisure and founding of a religious order dedicated to living in poverty and sharing the Gospels with all living things profoundly influence the ways in which Christians the world over worship and give service to their god even today. Recounted in Nikos Kazantzakis’s striking prose through the eyes of the saint’s brother, Leo, the life of Saint Francis shines in these pages as a heroic example of inspirational leadership and boundless love for God and all His creatures.

Download or read book Saint Francis of Assisi Illustrated written by G K Chesterton and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-17 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Francis of Assisi is, after Mary of Nazareth, the greatest saint in the Christian calendar, and one of the most influential men in the whole of humanHistory. By universal acclaim, this biography by G. K. Chesterton is considered the best appreciation of Francis's life--the one that gets to the heart of the matter.For Chesterton, Francis is a great paradoxical figure, a man who loved women but vowed himself to chastity; an artist who loved the pleasures of the natural world as few have loved them, but vowed himself to the most austere poverty, stripping himself naked in the public square so all could see that he had renounced his worldly goods; a clown who stood on his head in order to see the world aright. Chesterton gives us Francis in his world-the riotously colorful world of the High Middle Ages, a world with more pageantry andRomance-General-General-Generalthan we have seen before or since. Here is the Francis who tried to end the Crusades by talking to the Saracens, and who interceded with the emperor on behalf of the birds. Here is the Francis who inspired a revolution in art that began with Giotto and a revolution in poetry that began with Dante. Here is the Francis who prayed and danced with pagan abandon, who talked to animals, who invented the creche.

Download or read book Mr Blue written by Myles Connolly and published by . This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: J. Blue is a mysterious man. Charming and carefree, he goes from rags to riches after the inheritance of an unexpected fortune, only to forgo money and power for the love of Lady Poverty. This life of service leads him to embrace fully his Christian faith-loving the unlovable, instructing the ignorant, and remembering that it is by grace that we are saved. In this new edition of Myles Connolly's 1928 novel, readers can again encounter the mystery of "Mr. Blue." The new Introduction by Stephen Mirarchi places the book in historical context and explains its literary structure, just as Mirarchi's exhaustive Notes reveal Connolly's sharp command of his craft. Readers will see more clearly than ever before-as the novel's narrator does-how "Blue made one believe almost anything is possible," especially a life of joyful self-giving.

Download or read book Francis of Assisi Classic Reprint written by Oliphant and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Francis of Assisi The principal events of the following history took place in the beginning of the thirteenth century, of which it seems advisable to give a slight sketch at the commencement, that the reader maybe able to place St. Francis'in his proper chronological place among those events and personages, which occupy a larger space in history than historians generally are willing to allow, to a man who wielded only a moral influence, and was nothing more than a reformer and a saint. This will be found all the more necessary that it has been the aim of the writer in the work itself, rather to follow, as far as modern custom and authentic facts permit, the simplicity of the popular legend than to attempt any elaborate historical picture.
