- Abstract
- (en) From the sixteenth century, women’s religious orders implant massively in the cities of Catholic Europe. Among them, Ursulines, Discalced Carmelites, Visitandines, Blue Nuns and Reformed Benedictines deliver their investment in the design and the construction of their living environment through their writings (chronicles, annals, foundation stories, biographies). Despite the strict enclosure to which they are subjected by virtue of the decrees of the Council of Trent (1545-1563), they conceive plans alone or in groups, manage the supply of materials, transport some rubble and are in constant relations with the crafts and the professionals of construction with whom they try to assert their skills and claim their place in the society.
