Description
Summary:This article addresses written culture in female Cistercian monasteries in Portugal during the Middle Ages. Following a brief résumé of the state of the art, we shall seek to present the principal lines of analysis according to a two-pronged approach embracing both archives and libraries. The potential inherent to the study of monastic archives, including the production of documents, conservation, and organisation, is immense. Meanwhile, study of Cistercian female monastic libraries and their constituent books not only opens important perspectives on the commissioning, acquisition, and production of codices (for liturgical or other uses), but also on the reading practices of nuns and their literacy.
