We have evidence from 1209 about a man of twenty-seven who became famous. We refer to him today as Francis of Assisi. (Assisi was a modest if ambitious city in Umbria, central Italy.)

Their several sentences developed in the following weeks and months, as they kept to their original resolve. The text reached a complete...
