Rites for the Sick and Dying in Sources from Klosterneuburg

Abstract

This article investigates extant documents from the Augustinian canonry of Klosterneuburg (Codices Claustroneoburgenses 628, 629, 1022A, and 1022B) to gain insight into the community’s rites for the sick and dying. The sources largely agree in the material prescribed for the rites. Scribal annotations and signs of use within the manuscripts indicate that the same rites were used for both the men and women of the double house; the manuscripts’ rubrics also leave open the possibility that men and women participated in the rites together.Članek preučuje dokumente iz samostana avguštinskih kanonikov v Klosterneuburgu, ki vsebujejo informacije o obredih skupnosti za bolne in umirajoče (Codices laustroneoburgenses 628, 629, 1022A in 1022B). V gradivu, predpisanem za te obrede, se viri večinoma ujemajo. Pisarski zaznamki v rokopisih in znaki njihove uporabe kažejo, da so bili nekateri obredi v rabi tako pri moški kakor pri ženski skupnosti dvojnega samostana, rubrike rokopisa pa puščajo odprto tudi možnost, da so pri teh obredih moški in ženske sodelovali
