  • The article offers a precious contribution to the history of the Secular Franciscan Order in modern times, often a neglected field of Franciscan studies. Actually, it draws up an inventory of 163 �congregations� (=consolidated local fraternities) of the Secular Franciscan Order present in 17th-18th century France. Each entry indicates the attachment to a local community of Conventuals, Observants, Recollects, Capuchins or the male Third Order Regular, as well as historical sources and, if available, interesting facts for each group. Although less common and numerous than the Confraternity of the Cord, the Secular Franciscan Order is shown to have been a lively lay movement in whose spiritual accompaniment nearly all available Franciscan forces present in France were actively involved.
