Abstracts

EN

The next (27) part of the Cooperative Thought Library is dedicated to pious banks (Montes Pietatis) and the circumstances of their birth, especially in the fifteenth century by the Franciscan monks, realizing this way the Christian principle of charity and outreach in practice. We publish a translation of excerpts of the P. Heribert Holzapfel’s book, entitled The Beginnings of the pious banks (1462 - 1515) published in Munich in 1903, [original title: P. Heribert Holzapfel, Die Anfang der piety Montes (1462 - 1515), Munchen 1903]. In this issue, we remind the contents of Chapters I and II, in the next issue of the quarterly we will publish excerpts of Chapters III and IV of the Holzapfel’s book.
