He was notable for his learning and love of poverty vs He was notable for his learning, love and povery

The correct phrase is "he was notable for his learning and love of poverty." The second phrase is incorrect because it lacks parallel structure, as it mixes a list of nouns (learning, love) with a prepositional phrase (of poverty).
