Visions of Sainthood in Medieval Rome
The daily grind
Gender at the Medieval Millennium
The turn of the first millennium was once seen by feminist historians like Jo Ann Kay McNamara as the beginning of an inexorable decline in the power and status of medieval women, particularly with the celibate clergy’s assertion of hegemony as a third gender, but new evidence shows that this was only a short-term setback. While new technologies, like water-powered mills, may initially have been resisted as a means of extracting new rent, they fr…
Ghislain Baury, Les religieuses de Castille. Patronage aristocratique et ordre cistercien, xiie
Le livre porte sur trois maisons de cisterciennes fondées par la famille des Haro, grands feudataires du royaume de Castille. Ces abbayes ne pouvaient rivaliser en nombre et en puissance avec celle de Las Huelgas, fondée en 1187 par le roi Alphonse VIII et sa femme Eléonore d’Angleterre, qui renfermait plus de cent moniales. Les trois maisons ici étudiées, Cañas, fondée en 1169, Vileña en 1222 et Herce en 1246, n’en hébergeaient qu’entre vingt et…
The Life of Pons de Léras
Comparing the Life of Pons de Léras with the evidence of charters for a variety of Cistercian abbeys allows us to conclude that the term conversus as applied in the charters to Pons in fact meant “convert to the religious life.” Only in the 1150s did peasant recruits as lay brothers appear at Silvanès and elsewhere. That Pons is referred to as conversus therefore does not require an explanation of humility

Women's Work in Family, Village, and Town after 1000 CE
This article is intended to expand current understandings of the commercial revolution of the medieval European economy by considering women's work as spinners of yarn and thread in the development of the medieval textile industry. Women's work in the central Middle Ages changed with the introduction of water-powered mills for grinding grain into flour for bread. As such water mills were introduced, women could turn to the preparation and spinnin…

La Cour-Notre-Dame was an abbey of Cistercian nuns in the diocese of Sens in France founded circa 1225 and suppressed circa 1496. At the latter date its female occupants were replaced by a community of monks detached from Cı̂teaux; henceforth la Cour was called a priory of Cistercian monks. The church of la Cour-Notre-Dame still stands and its preservation has become a matter of local political concern. Its cartulary, compiled at the time of the …

Nuns as Artists
Were There Twelfth-Century Cistercian Nuns
It has been a truism in the history of medieval religious orders that the Cistercians only admitted women late in the twelfth century and then under considerable outside pressure. This view has posited a twelfth-century "Golden Age" when it had been possible for the abbots of the order of Cîteaux to avoid contact with women totally. Only later did the floodgates burst open and a great wave of women wishing to be Cistercians flood over abbots powe…
