The medieval university can not be studied for any time without coming to the conclusion that the mendicant orders played an important role. Yet historians, beyond citing the friars’ scholastic traditions, seem rather vague concerning their corporate identity, their relationship with the educational institution, and their purpose in university study. This is especially true regarding the Carmelites, who were the last mendicants on the academic scene. To date there has been no major study published on the Carmelites at the medieval universities.

The German Carmelites at the universities began to take solid shape with a definite past, a practical reason for their university presence, and a clear role in the theology faculties. This study is a contribution both to the history of the educational and intellectual life of the medieval Carmelites and to a clearer understanding of their position within the medieval universities.

L'università medievale non può essere studiata per nessun tempo senza giungere alla conclusione che gli ordini mendicanti hanno svolto un ruolo importante. Eppure gli storici, oltre a citare le tradizioni scolastiche dei frati, sembrano piuttosto vaghe per quanto riguarda la loro identità istituzionale, il loro rapporto con l'istituto scolastico e il loro scopo nello studio universitario. Questo è particolarmente vero per quanto riguarda i Carmelitani, che erano gli ultimi mendicanti sulla scena accademica. Fino ad oggi non è stato pubblicato un importante studio sui Carmelitani nelle università medievali.

I carmelitani tedeschi presso le università cominciarono a prendere una presenza solida con un passato ben definito, un motivo pratico per la loro presenza universitaria e un ruolo chiaro nelle facoltà di teologia. Questo studio è un contributo sia alla storia della vita educativa e intellettuale dei Carmelitani medievali sia per una comprensione più chiara della loro posizione all'interno delle università medievali.
