Summary: | Introduction; I. Chapters of Canons Regular; II. The Vita mixta as Principle of Canons Regular’ Way of Life; III. Centralized Activity of the Orders of Canons Regular; Conclusion In the last two decades, the formation of diocesan and religious chapters and the analysis of their functional characteristics have once again become the focus of research in ecclesiastical history, institutional history, monasterio- logy, history of spirituality and canon law. At the same time, the medievalist, municipal, educational and economic history researches have been intensified too, up to the reconsideration of the primary written and archaeological material. An outstanding role in the clarification of the canonical framework of the religious way of life, as part of the day-to-day institutional activity of the Catholic Church, was played by the renewal of canonical life in the 11th - 12th centuries with its spirituality, refinement of its organization and way of life, which was of course closely linked to the patristic sources, to the Rule of St. Augustine, and obviously to the pontifical and conciliar texts of the Gregorian Reform. The so-called ‘vita mixta ’, as a specific way of life, took a prominent place in the rapid spread of the newly founded orders. |
