medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Dear listmembers
I am in the process of drawing maps for a Medieval atlas and whilst I have
the regional groupings for the Franciscans and the main house of each
custody, I am having real difficulty in identifying the regional groupings
for the Carmelites, Austin Friars and Dominicans.
I have found out that the Carmelites in the English province (does this
include Scotland and Ireland as well?) were divided into
four 'distinctions' - London, York, Norwich and Oxford - but which
friaries are associated with which distinction is proving difficult to
find out. Norwich seems to consist of Burnham Norton, Blakeley, King's
Lyn and Yarmouth.
Re the Dominicans - again I have the four main houses of each of the
visitations - York, Oxford, Cambridge, (actually I am missing the fourth)
but the regional groupings are proving problematic (York seems to be York,
Lincoln, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Lancaster, Scarborough, Yarm, Carlisle,
Beverley, Pontefract, Bamburgh and (?) Berwick).
Re Augustinian friars - I have almost no information
Many thanks
Chris Daniell
See http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.asp?compid=36551 for Domincan
Friars in Salisbury and
http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.asp?compid=40287 for orders of
Friars in Bristol.
A Google UK search may well bring up more.
