Franciscana, directed by Diego Ciccarelli and Alessandro Musco, expressly concerned with the study of Franciscanism from the origins to its present-day forms of expression, with particular attention to the medieval age and the context of the presence in the Sicilian and Mediterranean area of Franciscan “knowledge”. It publishes new texts, studies, researches and collective volumes that are the fruit of seminars, meetings and conferences serving to deepen knowledge of literary, artistic, philosophical and theological, architectural and urbanistic, pastoral, religious and political forms with which the Minores have been able and willing to express their charisma, their message and their historical and social presence since the origins. Just by way of example we will mention the volume by Father Filippo Rotolo, OFM Conv, Il Beato Matteo d’Agrigento e la Provincia Francescana di Sicilia nella prima metà del secolo XV (being reprinted for the second time); Francescanesimo e cultura in Sicilia (secc. XIII -XVI), edited by Alessandro Musco; Francescanesimo e civiltà siciliana nel Quattrocento, edited by Diego Ciccarelli and Armando Bisanti; the edition with Italian translation of the Viridarium Principum. Francescanesimo e civiltà siciliana nel Quattrocento, by Andrea de Pace O.Min., edited by Diego Ciccarelli; the critical edition of the Sermones of Ruggero da Piazza, edited by Cataldo Roccaro; La dimora delle anime. Cappuccini nel Val di Mazara ed il Convento di Burgio, edited by Umberto Di Cristina, Antonio Gaziano and Rosanna Magri, a real “logbook” of an architectural restoration and of the recovery of the mummies, as well as of their garments, preserved in the crypt of the Burgios monastery turned into a museum; the two recent volumes I Francescani e la Politica, edited by Alessandro Musco. Then there are the volumes devoted to book circulation among the Franciscans in Sicily, to the cultural history and bibliographical patrimony of the Franciscan Library in Palermo edited by Diego Ciccarelti, to the Town Library at Troina and the collections of essays on the cultural presence of the Franciscans contextualized in areas like that of Noto, the Ragusa area, the Enna area and the Caltanissetta area, the Agrigento area, the Catania area, etc.
