The Concept of Nature by Francis of Assisi
Junová, Rut ; Hošek, Pavel (advisor) ; Hájek, Matěj (referee)
This bachelor's thesis deals with the concept of nature by Francis of Assisi. This work is divided into two chapters. The first one discusses the franciscan writings dealing with the nature in general, it analyses its rigours, afterwards introduces the key events of Francis' life. The second chapter is more komplex and focuses on the concept of nature in concrete franciscan writings. They are recognized as The Writings about St. Francis and The Writings of St. Francis. The first group consists of three biographies (Vita prima, Vita secunda, Legenda Maior) and one collection of legends about Francis (Little flowers). The second group includes Francis' letters, monastic rule, prayers and praises, among which Canticle of the Creatures stands out. The analyses of particular writings focused on their historical context and the comparison of writings crystallize the particular perspectives of Francis's concept of nature, especially the most outstanding view of nature as God's good creation.

Subsequently, based on the results of the first two steps, the thesis determines mysticism as a suitable interpretative framework for religionistic-theological research. Among the focal points of Jurolek's spiritual search, nature and poetry, the thesis reveals the connection with mysticism, both on a thematic-motivic level through the figures of particular saints (St. Francis of Assisi, St. Hildegard of Bingen, Plotinus) and through individual phases of mysticism (awakening, purification, enlightenment). The thesis also finds a connection with mysticism in the poet's way of writing which, from the point of view of philosophy, recalls the procedures of Husserl's phenomenology. At the same time, the thesis observes where Jurolek comes closer to the...
