medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
There are several monastic cathedral chapters in England. Most, e.g.,
Durham, was Benedictine. Carlisle was Augustinian.
Are there Norman examples from the 11th century on which both kingdoms
drew?

Interesting. At several locations in their newly acquired south
Italian
and Sicilian domains the early Hautevilles Robert Guiscard and Roger I
arranged for monastic cathedral chapters run by Cluniac Benedictines
of
the Cavensian community. The instances that come to mind right away
are
Venosa in the duchy of Apulia (where Guiscard intended the cathedral
to
be his family's burial church), Mileto (Roger I's capital in
Calabria),
and Catania.
I wonder where they got the idea to do this?
Best,
John Dillon
