| Summary: | The cartularies of the Norman leper-houses are rare manuscripts, unpublished so far. Yet, the ecclesiastical province of Rouen can boast a third of the leper-house cartularies preserved in Northern France. Most of them were written during the Lancastrian rule of Normandy. The drawing up of those cartularies resulted from the declining charitable institutions concerns over their future. As many as 2004 acts, ranging from the 12th and the 15th century, contained in two of the seven Norman leper-house cartularies have been edited, but are still unpublished; the rest are under preparation. |
