Popular historian and awardwinning author Jon M. Sweeney relates the untold story of St. Franciss friendship with Elias of Cortona, the man who helped him build the Franciscan movement. Sweeney uses the complexities of their relationship in a gripping narrative of how their efforts changed the world and how Eliass enthusiasm betrayed the ideals of his friend.Few biographies of St. Francis have examined his complicated relationship with close friend Elias of Cortona. In The Enthusiast, awardwinning author and historian Jon M. Sweeney delves into this littleknown partnership that defined and then almost destroyed Franciss ideals.Blending history and biography, Sweeney reveals how Francis and Elias rebuilt churches, aided lepers, and entertained as Gods troubadours to the delight of everyday people who had grown tired of a remote and tumultuous Church. At the height of their spiritual renaissance, however, Elias became the devil to many of the other friars; they believed him to be a traitor to their ideals. After Franciss premature death, the movement fractured. Scorned by most of the Franciscan leadership, Elias followed a path that would leave him a lonely, broken man. Sweeney shows how Eliass undoing was rooted in his attempts to honor his old friend.
