Roger Bacon and the Defence of Christendom

by Amanda Power

A study that reads Roger Bacon's scientific and educational proposals in the light of his Franciscan vocation and his concern for the defence and expansion of Christendom. Power argues that his interest in languages, mathematics and the secrets of nature served religious and missionary ends.
