For Western Christian medieval societies, institutional charity was a necessity set forth by the religion's dictums--care for the needy and sick was a tenant of the faith, leading to a unique partnership between Christianity and institutional care that would expand into the fledging hospitals of the early Modern period. In this study, the hospital of Saint John in Brussels serves as an example of the developments. The institution followed the pattern of the establishment of medieval charitable institutions in the high Middle Ages, but diverged to become an archetype for later Christian hospitals.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
