# Giovanni Parenti

> Giovanni Parenti was an Italian Friar Minor and St. Francis of Assisi's successor as head of the order. With a legal background, he served as Minister Provincial in Spain before being chosen Minister General in 1227. Parenti held a literal interpretation of poverty as it applied to the order; a view that was not shared by everyone. He stepped down in 1232 and was succeeded by Elias of Cortona.
