Hospitals in Communities of the Late Medieval Rhineland - Premodern Health, Disease, and Disability
Lucy Barnhouse
From the mid-twelfth century onwards, the development of European hospitals was shaped by their claim to the legal status of religious institutions, with its attendant privileges and responsibilities. This book compares leper hospitals (leprosaria) to relgious multipurpose institutions in medieval times under canon law.
