He entered the Franciscan Order in 1920, and was given the name ''{{lang\|la\|Philotheus}}'',<ref name="Damico">{{~~cite~~Cite book \|last=Damico \|first=Helen \|title=Medieval Scholarship : Philosophy and the arts}}</ref> the Latin form of the Greek ''{{lang\|el-Latn\|Philotheos}}'', ("friend of God"). In 1927 he was ordained as a priest, although he was so ill with [[tuberculosis]] he was not expected to live. While resting, he began his work as a medieval scholar by translating [[Étienne Gilson]]'s work on [[Saint Bonaventura]]. He became a close friend of Gilson in the 1930s. In the summer of 1940 Boehner moved to [[St. Bonaventure University\|Saint Bonaventure College]] (now a university) where he lectured on Franciscan philosophy, and it was here that he began to build the [[Franciscan Institute]] into a ~~centre~~center of international Franciscan scholarship. ==Works== As a result of his work and influence, a large output of scholarly publications were issued from the Franciscan Institute (more than thirty volumes from 1944–55, divided into five series—[[Philosophy]], [[Theology]], Texts, History, and [[Missiology]]). Probably his most enduring work is the [[critical edition]] of [[William of Ockham]]'s ''Opera omnia theologica et philosophica'', which he produced with Professor [[Ernest Moody]].<ref name="OP">{{~~cite~~Cite web \|title=Philotheus Boehner \|url=~~http~~https://openlibrary.org/a/OL842460A/Philotheus-~~Boehner\|title=Philotheus~~ Boehner ~~<nowiki>[edit]</nowiki>~~\|publisher=Open Library \|accessdate=5 July 2009~~-07-05~~}}</ref> * ''The History of the Franciscan School'', I.
