Yes, of course I know Moorman, but I was thinking, I guess, of some
references to more recent Italian work, that attempts to more radically
interpret the life of Francis, paying attention for instance to the
problematic character of the stigmata, the possible Jewish background to
the family as a source of friction, material that I don't know has been
gathered in a place convention to non-Italian readers (or pretty stumbling
Italian readers) such as myself.
