ABSTRACT The article examines the history and archaeology of the Dissolution of the mendicant friaries in the Midlands, against the background of changing attitudes to both friary communities and their buildings in the 1530s. There is a range of surviving sources for the process, which record details of friary properties and household contents. As the suppressions progressed, there was some limited discourse about the possible fate of these properties, but the outcome for the majority was the creation of derelict spaces within towns, echoing the redundancy of the former members, who, unlike regular choir monks or Austin canons, had no pensions to support them. There is a very low survival rate of friary buildings, largely because their urban locations made them particularly vulnerable to quarrying for local rebuilding projects. Even the friars, the most visible and popular of the religious orders, at least in towns, raised little support once their fate was decided.

修士、修道士和宗教改革：1538-39 年中部地区修士会的解散

摘要 本文在 1530 年代对修道士社区及其建筑物的态度不断变化的背景下，考察了中部地区乞丐修道士解散的历史和考古学。该过程有一系列幸存的来源，它们记录了修道院财产和家庭物品的详细信息。随着镇压的进行，关于这些财产可能的命运的讨论有限，但大多数人的结果是在城镇内创造了废弃的空间，与前成员的冗余相呼应，他们不同于普通的合唱团僧侣或奥斯汀大炮，没有养老金来支持他们。修道院建筑的存活率非常低，主要是因为它们的城市位置使它们特别容易受到当地重建项目采石的影响。连修士，
