Clausura Districta: Conceiving Space and Community for Dominican Nuns in the Thirteenth Century

The institutiones formulated and inscribed for the Dominican nuns during the thirteenth century form a valuable case study for understanding conceptions of space and enclosure for religious women in the period. Enclosure consisted not simply of the imposition, and protection, of walls, doors, and locks. It also required the vigilant shaping and monitoring of behaviours, and, most importantly, the development of a state of mind that enabled the individual nun to ensure her own personal enclosure. Thus, enclosure is not simply statutory; it is an ongoing exchange between institutiones, community, and the individual nun.
