  • Eighth Centenary of the Order of Saint Clare 2012 Is the 800Th Anniversary
    THE CLARIAN WOMEN PROJECT Introduction: Eighth Centenary of the order of Saint Clare 2012 is the 800th anniversary of the Form of Life begun by Saint Clare of Assisi and her followers in 1212. What a rich heritage is contained in those 8 centuries of great women who have followed in the brilliant light of their foundress. Besides those who shared Clare's life in Saint Damian's there are hundreds of others who came after them whose names have been preserved in Franciscan martyrologies, histories and in various literary works in the archives of Poor Clare monasteries. This project on Poor Clare women, as well as all the bibliography in The Book Path to Clare and Her Order, began a few years before 1983. The desire to do research and writing on Saint Clare and our Order was there, but I had no plans, no idea of precisely what I was going to do, and no scholastic skills to direct my efforts. I just wanted to know more about Clare and our Order, and I also hoped that whatever I was able to do might enable others to do more. During this time I prayed and pondered. A very dear friend gave me a book on Independent Scholarship, informing me - much to my delight - that I could consider myself to be in that category. Having lived the enclosed contemplative life of a Poor Clare, this work was done, as the work of other Clares around the world tends to be, in free moments here and there, and with little or no scholastic training.
