The Privilege of Poverty: Clare of Assisi, Agnes of Prague, and the Struggle for a Franciscan Rule for Women
Joan Mueller
Early in the thirteenth century, a young woman named Clare was so moved by the teachings of Francis of Assisi that she renounced her possessions, vowing to live a life of radical poverty. This book tells her story, and in so doing helps to reshape our understanding of early Franciscan history.
