Majoros Phd with Changes Accepted The Function of Hospitaller houses in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales by Christie Majoros Doctor of Philosophy, Research School of History, Archaeology and Religion Cardiff University 2016 Christie Majoros –The Function of Hospitaller houses in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales Acknowledgements I would like to thank those excellent scholars who, during the course of this project, have assisted with suggestions, materials, knowledge, and encouragement: Jenny Benham, Judith Bronstein, Jochen Burgtorf, Nora Carlin, Peter Edbury, Alan Forey, Nicole Hamonic, John Lee, Anthony Luttrell, Victor Malia-Milanes, Colmán Ó Clabaigh, Gregory O’Malley, Simon Phillips, Jonathan Riley-Smith, Theresa Vann and the Hill Museum & Manuscript Library, Paolo Virtuani, Pamela Willis and the Library of the Venerable Order of St John of Jerusalem at St John’s Gate, Clerkenwell.

This book cannot be expected to please everybody, and it makes no attempt to conciliate those who prefer sentiment to truth, or who allow their reading of historical events to be distorted by present-day controversies, whether ecclesiastical or political. In that respect it tries to live up to the dictum of Samuel Butler that 'he excels most who hits the golden mean most exactly in the middle'.

  • Naughty Nuns and Promiscuous Monks: Monastic Sexual Misconduct in Late Medieval England
    Naughty Nuns and Promiscuous Monks: Monastic Sexual Misconduct in Late Medieval England by Christian D. Knudsen A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of the Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto Copyright © by Christian D. Knudsen ABSTRACT Naughty Nuns and Promiscuous Monks: Monastic Sexual Misconduct in Late Medieval England Christian D. Knudsen Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto This dissertation examines monastic sexual misconduct in cloistered religious houses in the dioceses of Lincoln and Norwich between and . Traditionally, any study of English monasticism during the late Middle Ages entailed the chronicling of a slow decline and decay. Indeed, for nearly years, historiographical discourse surrounding the Dissolution of Monasteries (-) has emphasized its inevitability and presented late medieval monasticism as a lacklustre institution characterized by worsening standards, corruption and even sexual promiscuity. As a result, since the Dissolution, English monks and nuns have been constructed into naughty characters. My study, centred on the sources that led to this claim, episcopal visitation records, will demonstrate that it is an exaggeration due to the distortion in perspective allowed by the same sources, and a disregard for contextualisation and comparison between nuns and monks. In Chapter one, I discuss the development of the monastic ‘decline narrative’ in English historiography and how the theme of monastic lasciviousness came to be so strongly associated with it. Chapter two presents an overview of the historical background of late medieval English monasticism and my methodological approach to the sources. ii Abstract iii In Chapter three, I survey some of the broad characteristics of monastic sexual misconduct.

    6/23/2020 Order of Saint John (chartered 1888) - Wikipedia Order of Saint John (chartered 1888) The Order of St John,[3] formally The Most Venerable Order Order of St John of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem (French: l'ordre très vénérable de l'Hôpital de Saint-Jean de Jérusalem)[n 1] and also known as St John International,[4] is a British royal order of chivalry first constituted in 1888 by royal charter from Queen Victoria. The Order traces its origins back to the Knights Hospitaller in the Middle Ages, which was later known as the Order of Malta. A faction of them emerged in France in the 1820s and moved to Britain in the early 1830s, where, after operating under a succession of grand priors and different names, it became associated with the founding in 1882 Breast star of a Knight of Grace of the St John Ophthalmic Hospital near the old city of Jerusalem of the Order of St John and the St John Ambulance Brigade in 1887.

Though mankind's numerous institutions, — be they good, bad, or indifferent, — have their roots deeply imbedded in the soil of the historic past of men's movements, struggles, philanthropic ac tivities, yet we may well opine that whatsoever zeal and impelling motive they possessed they had no foreview as to their having founded an insti tution which in time's onflow would grow into international proportions. However, as "great oaks from little acorns grow," so it is an evolu tionary law that "first the blade, then the ear, then the full corn in the ear."

  • The Monastic Patronage of King Henry Ii in England, 1154
    THE MONASTIC PATRONAGE OF KING HENRY II IN ENGLAND, 1154-1189 Amanda M.

Past studies have examined aspects of Henry II’s patronage but an in-depth survey of Henry’s support of the religious houses throughout his realm has never been completed. This study was therefore undertaken to address modern notions that Henry’s monastic patronage lacked obvious patterns and medieval notions that the motivations behind his patronage were vague. The thesis seeks to illustrate that Henry’s motivations for patronage may not have been driven by piety but rather influenced by a sense of duty and tradition. This hypothesis is supported by examining and analyzing both the chronology and nature of Henry’s patronage. This thesis has integrated three important sources to assess Henry’s patronage: chronicles, charters, and Pipe Rolls. The charters and Pipe Rolls have been organized into two fully searchable databases.
