Summary:

This volume, 'Ordo et Sanctitas: The Franciscan Spiritual Journey in Theology and Hagiography', which celebrates the life and legacy of J.A. Wayne Hellmann, is comprised of articles written by colleagues, former students, and associates. The authors were invited to contribute their own articles within three broad categories corresponding with the areas in which Wayne has made a longstanding scholarly contribution: Franciscan hagiographical texts (especially Thomas of Celano); medieval theology and the Bonaventurian theological tradition; and the retrieval of the Franciscan tradition in a contemporary context. 0All of the essays in the volume build upon and expand in new directions the contributions of our honoree in these areas.
