May I introduce myself?
I am an Italianist by trade and have so far worked mainly in the field
of modern and contemporary literature (although, as a member of a small
department, I have taught courses on Dante, Petrarch and Boccaccio.
Jack of all trades!). Now, "giunto in quella parte/ di mia etade ove
ciascun dovrebbe/ calar le vele e raccoglier le sarte", I continue to
research and write on the Otto/Novecento, but am also taking up
Franciscan studies.
I am a Franciscan tertiary and hope eventually to produce a commentary
on the Cantico di Frate Sole for a non-specialist readership.
I also have a query.
The question of male stigmatics came up recently. Can anyone recommend
a study of the phenomenon?
Many thanks,
Brian Moloney
