Piast Dynasty Foundations of Female Monasteries in Thirteenth-Century Poland. Between the Reception of Foreign Patterns and the Creation of an Original Model
The monograph offers an analysis of chief convent foundations set up in the thirteenth century by benefactors from Piast dynasty circles. The foundations are shown in a comparative perspective which looks both at the idea of the convent in Western Europe of the early Middle Ages and its receptions in Central Europe. The (somewhat different) origins of female monastic communities in Poland are also presented, with an additional focus on major aristocratic foundations.
Keywords: Middle Ages, monastic foundations, aristocratic monastic foundations, female monasticism.
