A comparison between Western European Catholic monasteries and Russian Orthodox monasteries during the late Middle Ages and Early Modern period reveals their common roots in the Western and Eastern monastic traditions as well as similarities in the meaning and practical implementation of their shared early Christian heritage. The adopted social-historical perspective illustrates how the world of the monastery is connected to secular spaces. Das Mönchtum undder Aufbau der Welt der Klöster gehören zum gemeinsamen Erbe von Ost- und Westkirche seit der Spätantike. Monastische Kultur übt auch in der Gegenwart eine starke Faszination aus – sei es als das Andere einer fern gewordenen Welt, sei es als Teil der eigenen Welt. Deutsche und russische Forschung gleichermaßen haben sich in jüngster Zeit der Thematik verstärkt zugewandt. So wie auf einer vorangehenden interdisziplinären Tagung in Vladimir und Suzdal’ zu monastischer Kultur als transkonfessionellem Phänomen begegnen sich in diesem Band die beiden Forschungsdiskurse mit Beiträgen zu den religiösen Anliegen, zu Klosterleben und Klosterraum, zu politischen, wirtschaftlichen, sozialen und kulturellen Leistungen des Mönchtums. Der Band lässt strukturelle Parallelen wie auch deutlich unterschiedliche Entwicklungen in der monastischen Kultur erkennen. Er ist ein Spiegel der Vielfalt an Forschungszugängen der Geschichtswissenschaft, der Byzantinistik, Theologie, Kunstgeschichte, Archäologie und Philologie.

In contrast with the growing belief in society that traditional religious institutions are losing credibility, there has been renewed interest in monasteries going beyond what is strictly defined as religious. There are, for example, increasingly numerous requests for cooking and gardening courses as well as guided tours in monasteries, the appeal of monastic products and media interest in the subject. In parallel with a strong crisis in its recruitment, monasticism in the Western world is experiencing a period of innovation and experiments accompanied by unexpected popularity, as is evidenced by numerous films and publications. We hope that this book will deepen the understanding of the specificity of monastic life in the in the contemporary world, in a religious area, and from a sociological point of view.

The impetus of religious reform between ca. 1380-1520, which expressed itself in a variety of Observant initiatives in many religious orders all over Europe, and also brought forth the Devotio moderna movement in the late medieval Low Countries, had considerable repercussions for the production of a wide range of religious texts, and the embrace of other forms of cultural production (scribal activities, liturgical innovations, art, music, religious architecture). At the same time, the very impetus of reform within late medieval religious orders and the wish to return to a more modest religious lifestyle in accordance with monastic and mendicant rules, and ultimately with the commands of Christ in the Gospel, made it difficult to wholeheartedly embrace the material consequences of learning, literary and artistic prowess, as the very pursuit of such pursuits ran against basic demands of evangelical poverty and humility. This volume explores how this tension was negotiated in various Observant and Devotio moderna contexts, and how communities connected with these movements instrumentalized various types of writing, learning, and other forms of cultural expression to further the cause of religious reform, defend it against order-internal and external criticism, to shape recognizable reform identities for themselves, and to transform religious life in society as a whole.
