Description
Summary:The article aims to recognize some considerable features of the attitude with which, during the centuries of the Early Modern Age, the Congregation of the Benedictine Observance of Santa Giustina, then Cassinese, and the monasteries that were part of it used to face the event of receiving bequests, donations and other fruits of private generosity. The overall picture that emerges is that of an organization which, thanks also to the freedom of decision made possible by its patrimonial robustness, often chose to renounce the immediate material advantages that could have derived from this munificence, favoring instead the development a solid network of relationships, to which to appeal in cases of more serious need.
