95 fotografie in bianco e nero, anche a piena e doppia pagina, e un testo di Sandro Becchetti in italiano e inglese . 4to. pp. 208. . Ottimo (Fine). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . "San Francesco in fondo ribalta quasi mille anni fa il pregiudizio del lupo cattivo, quello di Cappuccetto Rosso, per intenderci. Lui parla con il lupo, perchè è lupo lui stesso.Il lupo uccide per fame, una fame che gli umbri si sono portati addosso per secoli come una protesta inascoltata scritta sulla loro pelle. San Francesco uccide anche lui: uccide il veccio mondo dei privilegi e dei pregiudizi, seglie come compagna di avventura, prima fra i suoi seguaci una donna, Chiara. Stabilisce, modernità assoluta, un legame tra pauperismo - rifiuto del superfluo - e la gioia. Sulla celata dei capitani di ventura, dei mercenari che guadagnavano da vivere per sè e per la propria gente combattendo le guerre altrui, spesso campeggia il lupo. Così il 'mestiere delle armi' diventa, in un dato periodo storico, il lavoro deglu umbri: io ti servo perchè ho fame, perchè i miei soldati e le loro famiglie hanno fame [.] Bartolomeo di Alviano, Braccio da Montone, Gattamelata da Narni, Bordo Michelotti, Niccolò Piccinino, Malatesta Baglioni.sono quei lupi vaganti per spazi e secoli insieme ai loro branchi domestici. Nomi dispersi in archivi polverosi che stanno ad indicare i padri dei padri dei nostri padri, fino al LUPO, quello che Francesco di Bernardone ammonisce a non più uccidere e che morrà di vecchiaia, pianto e rimpianto dalle genti che l'hanno adottato. Quel lupo siamo tutti noi".…
