The Life of St. Mary Frances of the Five Wounds of Jesus Christ is a biography written by D. Bernardo Laviosa and first published in 1878. The book tells the story of Mary Frances, a young Italian woman who devoted her life to God and suffered from the stigmata, the wounds of Christ, on her hands, feet, and side. The biography describes Mary Frances' childhood, her early experiences with religion and spirituality, and her eventual decision to become a nun. It also details the intense physical and emotional pain she endured as a result of the stigmata, and the ways in which she used her suffering to draw closer to God and inspire others to do the same. Throughout the book, Laviosa provides historical and cultural context for Mary Frances' life, discussing the religious and political climate of Italy during the 19th century and the role of women in the Catholic Church. He also includes quotes from Mary Frances' own writings and letters, as well as accounts from those who knew her personally. Overall, The Life of St. Mary Frances of the Five Wounds of Jesus Christ offers a fascinating look at the life of a remarkable woman whose devotion to God and willingness to endure suffering continue to inspire readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
