Summary: The volume contains the proceedings of the conference on Franciscanism and Culture in the Trapani province, organized by the Franciscan Library of Palermo between the 19th and the 21st of November 2009. The articles deal with the following subjects: the codices containing Saint Bernardine of Siena's sermons; some notes about a manuscript copied in France for a student from Trapani, brother Ludovico de Pino, or about the books of the philosopher father Giuseppe Napoli; the bizarre essay on the clocks, with beautiful illustrations by father Riccardo del Monte; library inventories, profession books, and mentions of Franciscan funds. Franciscan artists, or artists who worked in Franciscan churches of that area, are mentioned, as well as scholars and poets. An article deals with a new version of the popular devotion to Saint Anthony in the Trapani area between the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century.
