摘要：This paper studies the material grounds which provided the monastic orders with economical income. The patrimony of the church included juros, censos, and landed properties both in the city and in the country. A two-century trend shows that the patrimony was shaped and managed according to rational financial criteria. The main conclusions drawn from this study are that the patrimony of the Church was collected in an active rather than passive way of accumulating donations and legacies, and also that the growth of the ecclesiastical riches slowed its pace from the 17th to the 18th century.
