Abstract

[IT] L’articolo esamina l’episodio della spogliazione di Francesco d’Assisi intersecando la lettura delle prime narrazioni della vita del santo e dei romanzi contemporanei che hanno raccontato la sua vicenda. L’atto di rinuncia ai beni paterni e la rottura che esso determina lungo il corso della vita di Francesco vengono posti in relazione al tema della follia, che costituisce un cambio del paradigma con cui guardare il mondo e la sua logica. La scelta di Francesco di rinunciare al potere e alla proprietà proprie del mondo, oppone ad esse una nuova logica che si traduce non nella rinuncia al mondo, ma nella capacità di trascenderlo rimanendo al suo interno. The article examines the episode of the dispossession of Francis of Assisi by intersecting the reading of the first narrations of the life of the saint and contemporary novels that have told his story. The act of renouncing his father's goods and the rupture that it determines along the course of Francis' life are placed in relation to the theme of folly, which constitutes a change of paradigm with which to look at the world and its logic. The choice of Francis to renounce the power and the property of the world, opposes to them a new logic that is translated not in the renunciation of the world, but in the capacity to transcend it by remaining within it. / [EN] The article examines the episode of the dispossession of Francis of Assisi by intersecting the reading of the first narrations of the life of the saint and contemporary novels that have told his story.
