This article considers the little-known Italian Capuchin friar Lorenzo da Brindisi (1559-1619), Roman Catholicism's "Apostolic Doctor." An accomplished preacher, missionary, linguist, and leader of his order, Lorenzo directed, beginning in 1599, the first papally commissioned Capuchin mission to the religiously divided Kingdom of Bohemia. Based on a study of his surviving recorded sermons, sermon plans, and autobiographical reflections, this article examines two strategies employed by Lorenzo to combat heresy in Prague: routine polemical preaching and engagement in theological disputations that relied on verbal violence, constant appeals to Sacred Scripture, and theatricality.
