The Mendicant Orders What factors led to the rise of the mendicant orders? What was radical about Francis of Assisi’s monastic vision? Why did this vision appeal to men and women in early 13 th c. Europe? How did Innocent III and the papacy benefit from the rise of the mendicant orders? What role did the orders play in the consolidation of papal power?

France Philip II Augustus (r ) –Taking territory from England in the North Battle of Bouvines, 1214 –Integrator and unifier of the “French” people Albigensian Crusade ( )

Italy City-states! –Politically unstable, but rich Venice and Genoa emerge as naval and commercial powerhouses –“Maritime republics” with Pisa and Amalfi –Trade contacts with east

Urbanism and the Church Uncertainty Urbanized areas becoming hotbeds of heresy: Why? Persecution steps up. –Inquisition

Francis of Assisi Francesco di Bernadone ( ) –Son of wealthy cloth merchant –Sudden conversion Living by the Gospel: NO compromise –Matthew 19.21; Luke 9.3 –Embracing the world with joy, humility, and simplicity

Benefits of the New Orders Previous image: Pedro Berruguete, St. Dominic Presiding over an Auto-da-fe, Mobile strike force against heresy –Bernard Gui: a Dominican Visibility in the cities provides an alternative to heresy in the first place

Practicality Beats Radicality Rule of St. Francis becomes more elaborate and organized. Emphasis on study. –Roger Bacon, English natural philosopher –St. Bonaventure, Italian theologian Split in the Order: Zelati (Spirituals) and Relaxati (Conventuals) –Spirituals seen as a new heresy
