However, the legacy of early Franciscan thought, as it developed in the first generation of Franciscan thinkers who worked at the recently-founded University of Paris in the first half of the 13th century, is a virtually foreign concept in the relevant scholarship. The reason for this is that early Franciscans are widely regarded as mere codifiers and perpetrators of the earlier medieval, largely Augustinian, tradition, from which later Franciscans supposedly departed. In this study, leading scholars of both periods in the Franciscan intellectual tradition join forces to highlight the continuity between early and late Franciscan thinkers which is often overlooked by those who emphasize their discrepancies in terms of methodology and sources. At the same time, the contributors seek to paint a more nuanced picture of the tradition's legacy to Western thought, highlighting aspects of it that were passed down for generations to follow as well as the extremely different contexts and ends for which originally Franciscan ideas came to be employed in later medieval and modern thought. 606 $aFranciscan movement (Anglican Communion) 615 0$aFranciscan movement (Anglican Communion) 676 $a255.3 700 $aAlexander$b Fidora$0732836 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910476904203321 996 $aLegacy of Early Franciscan Thought$93396761 997 $aUNINA
