Perhaps my question touches on your theological studies--although it does
not particularly involve Jews or apocalypticism. It concerns the medieval
theology of the Holy Spirit. I've dipped into the Joachite material; but
what I find interesting is that the chroniclers seem to refer to the Holy
Spirit increasingly in the later Middle Ages. Could you recommend a recent
study of the theology of the Holy Spirit (I've read Yves Congar), which
deals with, say, the friars and Holy Spirit? Bonaventura? The Franciscan
tradition, with Francis as the "alter Christus" and the "Angel of the Sixth
Seal", seems to stress Christocentricism.
