medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Usually the friars minor are the Franciscans and the friar preachers are the Dominicans. In the poem is he speaking about the friars (Franciscans) who are engaged in the preaching apostolate? Just a thought ..

Subject: [M-R] Friars "minor" and "preachers" confused?
medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Can anyone provide me with a medieval example where the terms freres prechours (friars preachers) and freres menours (friars minor) were interchanged or confused?
(I am examining two versions of the life of St. Elizabeth of Hungary by Nicole Bozon (himself a Franciscan): one version refers to freres prechours, and the other to freres menours--i....and I am trying to figure out what the difference in these two copies of the poem might mean!)
Many thanks in advance
