Memory and the present. Three sermons on Bernardino da Siena (by Roberto Caracciolo from Lecce, by Giacomo della Marca, by Bernardino da Feltre).
Main Article Content
Abstract
In 1451, in 1460 and in 1494, three different preachers, Giacomo della Marca, Roberto Caracciolo and Bernardino da Feltre, celebrated the greatness of Bernardino da Siena who died in 1444. The sermons of the three members of the Franciscan Observance have the purpose of keeping the memory of this "second Francis" and to offer the crowds a model. The sermons are like three bricks useful for the reconstruction of Senese life, but above all for acting on the men and women who came to hear the three famous preachers. All the discourse is a mixture of historical reconstruction and commitment in the present as is best seen especially in the sermon on Bernardino da Siena by Giacomo della Marca that emblematicly makes the intent of using memory to act on men of his time in an active continuity with Bernardino da Siena but also with Francesco.
