Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Examples of San Bernardino' is an evocative collection that brings to life the vibrant and persuasive preaching of Bernardino of Siena, the renowned 15th-century Franciscan friar. San Bernardino was celebrated for his 'Prediche Volgari,' or popular sermons, delivered in the public squares of Italy. These sermons were unique for their use of 'examples'-short, engaging anecdotes, parables, and moral stories designed to capture the imagination of the common people and instill deep spiritual and ethical values.This work, compiled by Ada Harrison and featuring the artistic contributions of Robert Austin, focuses on the narrative genius and social insight of the saint. The text explores a wide range of themes, including the importance of charity, the dangers of vice, and the restorative power of faith, all while reflecting the complex social fabric of Renaissance Italy. By highlighting San Bernardino's rhetorical style and his ability to address the everyday concerns of his audience, the book provides a fascinating window into the history of Christian oratory and the Franciscan tradition. 'Examples of San Bernardino' serves as both a historical record and a source of timeless spiritual reflection, illustrating the enduring influence of one of Italy's most beloved religious figures.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
