About this book
The Pocket Bonaventure was conceived and first compiled by a group of students from Scottsdale, Arizona, using notes taken in a course taught by Fr. Tom Herbst, OFM, on the theology, philosophy and spiritual anthropology of St. Bonaventure.
Extensively revised, edited and illustrated by Fr. Tom, it keeps an original directness and simplicity, dealing with the major areas of the great thirteenth-century saint, scholastic and mystic’s thought in a way that is refreshingly accessible: wisdom, “I believe that I might understand,” the journey of egression and return to God, exemplarism, sin, salvation, Franciscan poverty and desire. Thus, a “pocket” Bonaventure.
Compiled by Annie Neroda; edited by Kathleen Garast and Liz Gunzelman; revised and illustrated by Tom Herbst, OFM.
