Originally given as a face-to-face dialogue between

Francis, in an era when "armed conflict
[was] the ruling passion" through personal example,
showed us a non-violent approach to
relationships with people his society defined as "the
enemy." As timely today as in Francis'
time, these selections explore non-violent relationships
on the political, interpersonal, and
intrapersonal levels and their undeniable relationship
to one another.
