Rites of Enclosure: The English Ordines for the Enclosing of Anchorites, S. XII–S. XVI

Extract

The enclosed solitary life, like other forms of (broadly speaking) monastic vocation, can trace its origins to the eastern deserts of the third and fourth centuries. But its development as a distinct and separately regulated form of living belongs to the central Middle Ages. By the twelfth century, the anchoritic vocation was an established part of a spiritual landscape that also included regular cenobites (monks, canons, nuns) and the still comparatively unregulated, freely wandering hermits. Anchorites usually lived alone (or at least without any spiritual companion: the life was impossible without servants or some other way of attending to the practitioner's domestic needs), in a cell attached (in most cases) to a parish church, often in an urban location; if men, they were usually priests, though more often seculars than regulars; in England, female anchorites, of whom very few appear to have been nuns prior to their enclosure, outnumbered males throughout the period.

In addition, I should like to thank the participants in the workshop on “Writing and Revising Medieval Rites” in the series “Interpreting Medieval Liturgy c. 500–1500 Text and Performance,” Exeter, January 2010, for discussing some of this material with me; Richard Pfaff, Richard Kay, and Matthew Cheung Salisbury for their helpful replies to my enquiries, and Giuliano di Bacco and Fiona Watson for their assistance with the Trinity manuscript.

9 The references to Exeter are written over erasure. Kay comments: “Wilson read the erasure as “doroborensi” [sic] (Canterbury), but under ultraviolet this seems unlikely” (Pontificalia, on this MS). (In fact, the text that Wilson printed had been supplied by Dewick, E. S..) Kay examined the manuscript in 1960, and perhaps more could be made out then than now. I have been able to establish only that “[exoni] ensi” has been written over an erased word that was longer, perhaps by only one letter. In abbreviated form, “dorobernensi” would be a good fit.Google Scholar

12 Van Dijk, (followed by Kay) suggested an association with Exeter's Cathedral of St. Peter on the strength of the invocation of the apostle in the Satisfaciat at the end of the Burial of the dead. But Peter appears also, for example, in the text of the printed manuals; and see §106 in the edition below (van Dijk, S. J. P., “Catalogue of Liturgical Manuscripts and Fragments in the Bodleian Library, Oxford” [typescript held in Duke Humfrey's Library, Bodleian Library, Oxford], 2:8). Nonetheless it will be seen below that Tanner is very close textually to Lacy, assuredly an Exeter book.Google Scholar

13 Henderson omits dating the manuscript but implies that it is contemporary with Bainbridge, even though he notes that the references to the archbishop are later additions (see viii, v). In his description in Bibliotheca Musico-Liturgica 2 ([Burnham, Bucks., 1932], 113), Frere, W. H. made it s. xiii, though he had included it among the fifteenth-century manuscripts in the list of pontificals he gave in Pontifical Services Illustrated from Miniatures of the XVth & XVIth Centuries, vol. 1 ([London, 1901], 104). Brückmann and Kay both follow Frere's 1932 dating to s. xiii, but the Cambridge cataloguers (Luard, H. R. and Scott, C. B.) seem to have been correct in assigning the book to s. xv. See A Catalogue of the Manuscripts Preserved in the Library of the University of Cambridge, 5 vols. (Cambridge, 1856–67), 2:509–10. My thanks to Ralph Hanna for his advice on dating the hands of this manuscript.Google Scholar

14 The thirteenth-century pontifical in Warminster, Longleat MS 13 is defective at the end of its blessings of virgins and widows, and resumes some way into the order of matrimony (Brückmann, 458): given the position of the lacuna, the lost material could possibly have included an enclosure ordo. My thanks to Professor Pfaff for bringing this manuscript to my attention.Google Scholar

15 This text, and the absolutions printed Henderson, 107–108, are omitted from the entry in Ralph Hanna's catalogue, where they should appear between items 16 and 17. See A Descriptive Catalogue of the Western Medieval Manuscripts of St John's College, Oxford (Oxford, 2002), 6466. Hanna describes MS 47 as a manual of York use, but this appears to be an error: it regularly follows the printed Sarum manuals, and contains no features distinctive of York. Many thanks to Ruth Ogden for her help in securing reproductions from this manuscript.Google Scholar

16 Buckland was lot 210 in the sale of books from (inter alia) the estate of Sir Nicholas Throckmorton at Christie's, 20 December 1972, but it remained unsold and was returned to the family (who had relinquished Buckland House in 1910) at Coughton Court (Warwicks.). The description given in the sale catalogue supplements the Historical Manuscripts Commission description on matters of dating and decoration. For their help in tracking down this manuscript I am grateful to Lesley Caine at Warwickshire County Record Office and Linda McCloud at Christie's London; and for access to it, to the National Trust and in particular Kelly Appleton at Coughton Court.Google Scholar

34 It also appears in the English rite — see §064 in the edition below and notes — but since the prayer, used here for blessing the anchorite's cell, is ubiquitous in benedictiones domuum, its appearance may be coincidental.Google Scholar

71 In the manuscripts, however, the ordo for men is primary. It comes first, and whereas in the rite for men the litany is given at considerable length, in the rite for women the chorus master is simply referred to the litany “which is written in the last office” (“quern ultimo officio scribitur”), with a reminder to change the gender of nouns and pronouns as necessary (see §010 in the edition of the ordo for female anchorites, below).Google Scholar

77 “Religious Change” (n. 54 above), 108. Collins, editor of the printed manual, seems to tend towards an earlier dating — “the time” of its compilation, he suggests, “cannot have been much before the close of the fourteenth century,” and he places its origin in the universities rather than the ecclesiastical administration. See Manuale, xviii.Google Scholar

78 The text in Buckland is valuable for providing a link between the fifteenth-century manuscript culture from which this version of the rite emerged and its appearance in early sixteenth-century print. Whether Buckland as a whole has any importance in the history of the development of the printed manuals seems less certain: its contents and sequence differ significantly from the extant editions.Google Scholar

79 Ed. Henderson, , 108–109; Keble, fol. 245v. In Keble the endings are masculine (e.g., “desponsatus”). In the second antiphon, Henderson printed “Annulo meo subarravit,” but Keble has the usual reading.Google Scholar

80 “Regnum mundi et omnem ornatum saeculi contempsi propter amorem Domini mei Jesu Christi. Quern vidi, quern amavi, quern credidi, quern dilexi” (Henderson, 109; cf. Manuale, 79). It is also used, albeit earlier in the ceremony, in the rite for female anchorites in Chichele: see 048.Google Scholar
