Through case studies of six houses in Pomerania and Neumark (Ko?bacz, Marienwalde, and Himmelstädt) and on the Scottish-English border (Melrose, Dundrennan, and Holm Cultram), the author traces the development of social networks around these monasteries within their own regions and across borders, and explores the importance of the international Cistercian networks for communities located in these politically sensitive areas. Very different socio-economic conditions in the regions under discussion resulted in quite different strategies of land accumulation by Cistercian monasteries in Scotland and Pomerania, which in turn had a lasting impact on their relationships with their neighbours. The author also examines the role of these abbeys in wider ecclesiastical politics and in relation to the key issues of the time: church reform and the expectations of the order?s lay patrons and benefactors. In the fourteenth century, all of the abbeys experienced war, violence, and long-term instability. Their responses to these threats and difficulties are significant for our understanding of monastic strategies in hostile environments. Above all, this study shows how a Cistercian model was adapted to fit the complex political, cultural, and ethnic contexts of the southern Baltic, Northern England, and Scotland.

This volume examines forms of
interaction between monastic or mendicant communities and lay
people in the high Middle Ages in Britain, France, the Low
Countries, and Scandinavia. The nineteen papers explore these
issues in geographically and chronologically diverse settings in a
way that no English-language collection has yet attempted. It
brings together the latest research from established as well as
younger historians. The first section, 'Patrons and Benefactors:
power, fashion, and mutual expectations', examines lay involvement
in foundations, the rights held by patrons, and how they used these
powers as well as networks of relationships with broader groups of
benefactors. The authors demonstrate how changing fashions shaped
the fortunes of particular orders and houses and explore how power
relations between different types of patrons and benefactors -
royal figures, kinship, and other social groupings - affected the
mutual expectations of the various parties. The second section of
the volume, entitled 'Lay and Religious: negotiation, influence,
and utility', shows how lay people's ideas of the role of religious
houses could impact upon their patronage of, and support for,
monastic or mendicant institutions. Conversely, religious
communities offered multi-faceted benefits - practical,
intellectual, or spiritual - for the secular world. The book
concludes by focusing on the rapid growth of confraternities, their
relation to their urban mendicant and monastic contexts, and how
the role and forms of confraternities evolved in the late medieval
period.

Rievaulx abbey was one of the most
prominent houses of white monks (Cistercians) in England, and became in
the course of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries an important feature
of the ecclesiastical and social landscape of Yorkshire. The present
work is the first in-depth study devoted to Rievaulx's social
history. The abbey's once extensive archives were largely destroyed
after the Dissolution, but the surviving late-twelfth-century cartulary
provides a fascinating insight into the process of creating
institutional memory, preserving and shaping information about various
neighbours of the abbey, and creating a 'map' of social
networks that developed around Rievaulx. The complex picture of
building and sustaining connections between the abbey and its lay
patrons, benefactors and neighbours forms a core to this book. This
study also examines how Rievaulx co-existed with other religious
institutions in the area, and particularly the practical dimension of
friendships between abbots, declarations of mutual support between
monastic communities, and how these were reconciled with a fierce
competition for land and donations. Contacts between Rievaulx abbey and
the nearby archbishops of York and bishops of Durham were intense and
these contacts demonstrate how important these prelates were as
potential supporters, and how broader ecclesiastical issues influenced
their relationships with Rievaulx. Whilst exploring the case of one
particular monastery this book is an important contribution to the
current debate on the shaping of Cistercian practice, and particularly
the mechanisms for the interaction between laity and monastic
communities, during the High Middle Ages.
