Abstract:
The system of double monasteries, or monasteries for both men and women, is as old as that of Christian monasticism itself. The double monastery in its simplest form was that organization said to have been founded in the fourth century by St. Pachomius, an Egyptian monk. This settlement soon became a proper nunnery under the control of the superior of the monks, who delegated elderly men to care for its discipline. Through the ages, double monasteries comprising communities of both men and women dwelling in contiguous establishments, united under the rule of one superior, and using one church

AbstractUntil the end of the War of the Spanish Succession, the constitutional status of the former kaiserlich freie Reichsstift Thorn in the present Dutch province of Limburg was disputed. After the Emperor Charles VI had established its constitutional position as a member of the Holy Roman Empire in 1718, a Court of Appeal was established to symbolise Thorn's sovereignty and serve as an intermediary court between the local lower jurisdictions and the Reichskammergericht and the Reichshofrat. The organisation and jurisdiction of the Court of Appeal were laid down in ordinances by the sovereig

Abstract:
This paper examines a collection of 42 funerary emblems, or jerogl.ficos in Spanish, crafted in honour of the Spanish Abbess Mother Jerónima de la Asunción (1555-1630), the foundress of the first female monastery in the Philippines in 1621. While the original copies of these emblems, comprising images, biblical references, and Spanish verses, have yet been discovered, detailed descriptions of each emblem provide valuable insights into the production of imagery in relation to local veneration of a potential saint. By situating these emblems within the broader context of emblematics in early mod

The Pühtitsa Assumption Convent, the largest in the Baltics, was founded in the reign of Emperor Alexander III on the initiative of the Estonian governor, Prince S. V. Shakhovsky. The formation of the monastery coincided with the period of the rise of Estonian national consciousness and later with the formation of the Estonian Church and the opening of the Estonian Orthodox See. The article deals with the difficulties of the existence of the convent during the years of the civil war and epidemics on the territory of independent Estonia, in an atmosphere of distrust towards the Russian clergy a

Abstract:
Gregory of Nyssa, the younger brother of St. Basil the Great (c. 330-379) was born around 330 and was educated chiefly by Basil, at the family's monastic convent near the river Iris, in Cappadocia. Like his older brother, he opted at first for a secular career in rhetoric. Unlike Basil however, he even got married. Under the influence of his close friends, especially Gregory of Nazianzus (c. 329-389), he retired to the same monastery on the Iris which his brother, Basil, founded. In 371, his ecclesiastical career advanced further, being elevated to the episcopal seat of Nyssa (in modern centra

Abstract:
Chapter 5 considers the interplay between the living and the dead within the Christian tradition, focusing on the role of book-centered rituals in mediating this relationship. It underscores the Christian view of death as a gateway to the afterlife, emphasizing the intercessory role played by the living through prayer to aid the souls in Purgatory. The chapter examines the emergence of brotherhoods and the hiring of monastics as professional intercessors, a practice reflected in images, such as the Spes Nostra painting.

You will find this not merely there but in many places in England: only the bare names of saints are known, and whatever miracles they may still perform. All evidence for their doings has been obliterated, I believe, by the violence of enemy attacks. On the face of it, William of Malmesbury’s comment seems more appropriate to Celtic regions than to England. The plethora of obscure local cults in Wales, Cornwall, and Brittany is ofte

This chapter explores how Robert of Arbrissel named Petronilla of Chemillé as abbess at Fontevraud. Though he was not a Benedictine monk, Robert of Arbrissel knew the Rule of Benedict very well. He was, however, a man of the “Gregorian moment,” the decisive move to reform church and society that had been launched by Pope Gregory VII and pursued by his successors. Thus, the founder of Fontevraud introduced a clause entirely foreign to Benedict's thought: the insistence that the superior (here in the feminine) would have to come from one of the abbey's internal categories rather than from anothe

From this moment on, every form of regular religious life in the West expressed itself in relation to Benedict's Rule. Not having been able to implement her own rule during her lifetime, Clare of Assisi assumed the direction and government of the sisters of San Damiano as a Benedictine abbess.

He showed little interest in the sciences but a great talent in logic. After traveling from school to school, he distinguished himself as a master of the techniques of disputatio.
