About this book
Peter John Olivi (c. 1248–1298), one of the most prolific and controversial Franciscan thinkers of the thirteenth century, here turns his keen mind to the Mother of God.
In four questions he reflects on the Virgin’s consent at the Annunciation, the twelve victories of the Blessed Virgin over sin and temptation, her excellence and perfection as Queen of heaven and earth, and the sorrow she bore at the Passion of her Son.
Translated by Campion Murray, OFM, from the edition of Dionysius Pacetti, OFM, whose full introduction on Olivi’s life, writings and influence, and on the manuscripts of these questions, is included.
