Hence SH Irefers to Book 1, SH II to Book 2.1, SH III to Book 2.2, and SH IV to Book 3, respectively.The unedited Book 4, which is not part of the Quaracchi edition, will be cited, with referencetothe respective edition, as SH Bk IV. Where it would not lead to confusion, ashorthand could be used for furtherci- tations: SH III (n. 162),p.179.

While these conferences concerned the earlyFranciscan tradition in general, their more specific focus was the so-called Summa Halensis, amassive text that was collaboratively authored by the founding members of the Franciscan school at Paris between 1236 and 1245, in an attempt to laydown adistinctlyFranciscan intellectual tradition for the very first time. Although some final additions to the text were made in 1255–6, the Summawas
