## Bio

Giovanni di Fidanza was born in Italy in 1221 and joined the Franciscans, eventually becoming the order's seventh Minister General. He served as Bishop of Albano and was later made a cardinal, working as both a scholastic theologian and philosopher. He died on 15 July 1274. More than two centuries later, in 1482, Pope Sixtus IV canonised him. In 1588 another pope gave him the title "Seraphic Doctor," marking him as one of the Church's official theological authorities. A complication followed: many medieval texts long credited to him were later determined to be the work of others, now grouped under "Pseudo-Bonaventure."
