life in a monastery (5.2)
sizes of a monastery
small monasterys
small monasterys had about 20 monks
in small monasterys ,monks there all knew each other the also knew if
someone was missing from prayers
they did not work hard enough
were not unlikely to have a scriptorum so the work would be less varied
didn't own that much land
so it was likely that they all farmed on that land
large monasterys
lage ones had sometimes hundreds of monks
not every body knew each other
because they had different things to do
some worked in the school
some looked after the foods and drinks
some worked in a hospital
some worked in a scriptorum
they owned to much land for them all to farm
but they had people that they called lay brothers
the lay brothers did all the farming
the lay brothers didn't have to attend to the specific duties of the monks
is wealthier better
people gave the monasterys money and possession as their parents or if they died themselves because they thought god would approve them
some monasteries had a bad name for them not following st. benedict's rules
