Francis of Assisi’s "Canticle of the Creatures": A Modern Spiritual Path by Luigi Santucci is a poetic and deeply spiritual reflection on one of the earliest and most beloved works of Christian environmental mysticism.
Blending storytelling, meditation, and lyrical prose, Santucci brings to life the world of St. Francis through a modern lens—exploring how his love for nature, simplicity, and all living things still speaks to the spiritual seeker today. Each chapter draws on lines from the Canticle, expanding them into rich reflections on creation, humility, joy, and the divine presence in the natural world.
This second-hand edition is ideal for readers drawn to eco-spirituality, Franciscan theology, Christian mysticism, and contemporary paths of spiritual ecology.
