This rare and unpublished manuscript from the 14th century offers a unique perspective on the history of the Porziuncola Indulgence, which remains an important pilgrimage site for Roman Catholics to this day. The author, Francesco Bartoli, was a Franciscan friar who was intimately involved in the history and administration of the Porziuncola. His account provides an in-depth look at the origins and significance of the Indulgence, and sheds light on the complex religious and political context of medieval Italy.
