While previous research has mainly focused on activities of religious orders inside their churches, this study aims to map the „Franciscan presence“ outside their monasteries – specifically in the public space of early modern cities and their surroundings. The study takes into account the communicative aspects of monastic buildings, iconography and the care of the exterior that affect the immediate surroundings. The negotiation of liminal spaces and disputes with other actors in public space become central. Examples from the monasteries in Brno and Olomouc illustrate how the Franciscans worked with memory and space in the urban environment, while the case of the via crucis to Hájek shows their active interventions in the open landscape. The text also draws attention to the creation of sacred complexes such as the viae crucis, and highlights the influence of the Franciscans outside the walls of the monastery through rituals, whether during occasional processions or regular collections of alms.

Exhortatio ad meditationem et conformationem passionis Christi written by a Dominican Matthias Hayn in 1470 describes how the friars should make an effort to improve their behaviour towards others and deepen their spiritual life during Lent.The author, who received good education while attending Dominican Studia Generalia in Cologne, Vienna and Paris, was designated by the Master General of the Order of Preachers to effect an observant reform in the Dominican Convent in Wrocław. Presumably Hayn wrote ‘Exhortatio’ as a part of his reform activities. The first part of the text is introduction, where Hayn explained the aim of his work. At the beginning he quoted the words from the first reading for Ash Wednesday: “return to me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning” (Joel 2:12) and then he recommended to the brothers that these three acts of penance are the best way of reconciliation with God. According to Hayn the best example to follow in this matter is Christ, therefore during Lent the friars should ponder the Passion and seek to imitate Christ in their everyday situations, especially in those concerning life in monastery. The second part of Exhoratio (the main one) is divided into forty three short chapters called “Morselli” and each of them consists of “Passio” and “Conformatio”. The first is a passage from the Passion parphrased by Hayn, the latter presents a commentary on the preceding “Passio” including advice for the friars.This article comprises a critical edition of Exhortatio ad meditationem et conformationem passionis Christi accompanied by a Polish translation. The edition is based on two exisiting copies of the text which are contained in two manuscripts from the Wrocław University Library collection.

Celem artykułu jest zdefiniowanie klauzury w klasztorach mniszek całkowicie oddanych kontemplacji (zastosowaną na konkretnym przykładzie mniszek dominikanek) oraz przedstawienie zmiany jej rozumienia po ostatnim dokumencie papieskim z 2016 r. Dotychczas była to klauzura papieska, rozumiana jako przywilej i specyficzna forma oderwania się od świata. Papież Franciszek w konstytucji apostolskiej Vultum Dei quaerere określa formy klauzury, które mają być wzbogaceniem, a nie przeszkodą w życiu religijnym konkretnej wspólnoty i które są oparte o realne warunki klasztoru. Dlatego wzywa do rewizji sposobu patrzenia na realizację konkretnej formy klauzury mniszek w poszczególnych klasztorach w odniesieniu do ich własnej tradycji. Oferuje on teraz mniszkom możliwość zdecydowania się co do formy klauzury (niekoniecznie już papieskiej), zdefiniowania jej w ius proprium danego instytutu i zachowywanie tej formy po zatwierdzeniu przez Kongregację Instytutów Życia Konsekrowanego i Stowarzyszeń Życia Apostolskiego.

The article aims with the definition of cloister nuns in monasteries focused solely on the contemplation (applied to a specific example of Dominican nuns) and changes in perception over the last papal document from the year 2016. It has always been papal cloister so far, conceived as a privilege and a specific way into seclusion from the world. Pope Francis in the Apostolic Constitution Vultum Dei quaerere provides some types of the cloisters, to be enriching and not an obstacle to the religious life of a specific community and are based on real conditions of the monastery. Therefore Pope Francis calls for a review of the looking at the implementation of specific forms of seclusion nuns in various convents in the context of their own tradition. He offers the Nuns the possibility to opt for some form of cloister (no longer necessarily the only papal cloister), modified it in the Ius proprium in the institute, and after confirmation of this form of the Congregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life, thus maintaining it.
