Against the Friars

- Antifraternalism in Medieval France and England

About Against the Friars

Founded in the early 13th century, the Franciscans and Dominicans seemed a perfect solution to the Church's troubles in confronting rapid changes in society. Yet there were those who were not so enamored of them. In the mid-13th century, writings appeared denouncing and mocking the friars, and calling for their abolition. From harsh theological criticism and outrage at the Inquisition, to vulgar stories and bathroom humor, these are their stories.
