Chartvlarivm Ecclesiae Sancti Petri de Bvrgo Valentiae Ordinis Sancti Avgvstini

"Chartvlarivm Ecclesiae Sancti Petri de Bvrgo Valentiae Ordinis Sancti Avgvstini" by C.-U.-J. Chevalier is a historical document likely written in the late 12th or early 13th century. The work serves as a cartulary, recording significant charters and privileges related to the Abbey of Saint Peter of Bourg in Valencia, particularly highlighting its ecclesiastical governance and rights over its properties. The text delves into the duties and dignities of church officials, reflecting medieval ecclesiastical practices and societal structure. The opening of this work introduces the role and responsibilities of the prior of the Abbey, detailing how they should be elected and the various duties they must uphold within the monastic community. It illustrates a structured governance where the prior is responsible for maintaining order among canons, overseeing communal matters, and ensuring proper adherence to church regulations. Accompanying the narratives are various charters and agreements concerning property and privileges that further explicate the relationships between church authority and the lay community within medieval society.
