The essay is concerned with a transformation of spiritual administration conducted by the Premonstratensians – members of the Strahov monastery at the break of the 18th and 19th century. Although monastic parishes manned by canons had been an everyday reality of the monastery since as early as the post-White Mountain period, their number significantly increased in the researched period. This coincided with a reform of spiritual administration imposed by Joseph II and the superiors’ effort to eliminate disestablishment of the monastery through a broad support of pastoral and pedagogic activities. Besides indisputable benefits, extension of the spiritual administrativ meant a financial and personal burden for the monastery which was firstly connected with administration of the patron rights. Secondly, manning new locations and parishes collided with a decline of monastery members, which did not end until the early 19th century. From a broad perspective, this strategy influenced evolution of the monastic order in the Bohemian lands until the early 20th century.

The paper introduces the life story of a long-time prior and Abbot Bernard Tomáš Wancke (1651-1714, abbot 1709-1714) on the basis of various types of narrative and official sources originating in the Premonstratensian abbey Klášterní Hradisko u Olomouce. Soon after his death he was proclaimed abbas Marianus, which evoked his merits in the prosperity of the pilgrim site at Svatý Kopeček u Olomouce to which two of his printed works are dedicated – a narrative about miracles (Continuatio gratiarum dated 1711) and a handbook for pilgrims (Mons Praemonstratus, id est genuia desriptio sacri et gratiis Marianis longe, lateque refulgentis Montis dated 1713). Besides these, he published in print a genealogic work dedicated to St. Norbert (Seminarium olivarum) in 1701.
