Aspekte des Kämmereramtes in den Klöstern Corbie und Corvey im frühen Mittelalter

Abstract

The lecture would like to make a contribution to to specify structural connections between Corvey and the mother monastery of Corbie. The 'Statutes' of Abbot Adalhard of Corbie precisely describe the organization of the everyday monastery life in the picardy area and the question arises whether these instructions that Adalhard wrote down for the mother monastery, also a role model for the everyday processes in Corvey. This applies in particular to the obligations and tasks of various individual functionaries of the community (treasurer and this subordinate cellar master, as well as the marshal), whereby the focus of the lecture on will lie with the office of the monastic chamberlain.
