Franciscans, Dominicans and their Art: Part I, Comparing the Spirit of the Orders

of Saxony, On the Beginnings of the Order of Preachers, trans. Simon Tugwell, OP, Dublin : Dominican Publications, p. xvi. Jordan's book deals more with event than personalities, and Dominic is portrayed as a "primus inter pares" rather than as an "alter Christus" like Francis of Assisi.

4 - Tugwell, S. Early Dominicans, Selected Writings, Paulist Press: New York, 1982. An examination of almost any article in this compilation bears out this point.

5 - There was also much Franciscan internal conflict on this point, a result of the dominating influence of Francis' personality. Tugwell, On the Beginnings of the Order of Preachers, introduction, p. x.

6 - This is a fact not overlooked by scholars and psychoanalysts who suspect that Francis' stigmata and early visions (which took place before a crucifix) were the results of self induced hysteria. For examples of his preoccupation with this subject see Pourrat, P. The Crucified One, Englebert, Omer, The Wounds of Christ and other articles in Roy M. Gasnick, OFM, The Francis Book, p. 94 et al.
