9781494985004: The Life of St. Frances of Rome

Synopsis

IN presenting to the general reader a newly-written life of so extraordinary a person as St. Frances of Rome, together with the biographical sketches contained in the present volume, it may be useful to introduce them with a few brief remarks of that peculiar feature in the histories of many Saints, which is least in accordance with the popular ideas of modern times. A mere translation, or republication of n foreign or ancient book, does not necessarily imply any degree of assent to the principles involved in the original writer's statements. The new version or edition will be nothing more than a work of antiquarian or literary interest, by no means professing any thing more than a belief that persons will be found who will, from some motive or other, be glad to read it.
