About the book

"This work recounts the life and turbulent career of the fourteenth-century Occitan Franciscan, Fr. Bernard Delicieux. He was, in turn, a supporter of and then a traitor to the king of France, a last great leader of the Spiritual Franciscan movement, and above all an open opponent of the Inquisition."--BOOK JACKET. "The book examines, through this biography, the crisis of dissent and heresy in southern France and the rise of a unique popular movement to suppress the regime of the ecclesiastical Inquisition. It concludes with the destruction of the Spiritual Franciscans and the death of its subject at the Inquisitors' hands."--BOOK JACKET. "This book will interest those concerned with political or religious history."--BOOK JACKET.
