THE CAPUCHINS 1528
  1. Good example of a new order that developed from an old one
    1. Franciscan Observant > division from the Franciscan Order
      1. Capuchins were reformed Franciscan Observants
    2. Lived in small communities, in basic huts (away from town centres)
      1. Rejected fine town churches that Franciscans built
        1. Lived a life in extreme poverty & prayer
          1. Sleep, food & comfort were deliberately limited-begging was a last resort
        2. Extreme example attracted more support & popularity
          1. Ministry was the poorest in society
            1. Well known for seeking out those most desperate through disease, sickness & family breakdown
              1. Service towards the sick was legendary in the North of Italy - they fearlessly served plague victims with no thought of their well-being
            2. Capuchins were hated by the Franciscan Observants (almost abolished them in 1534)
              1. Failed because of the support of Pope Clement VII's niece, Duchess of Camerin
              2. IMPORTANCE?
                1. Hard to assess - not much documentary evidence available
                  1. By 1640, there were 30,000 members & 1,500 religious houses
                    1. Preaching, standards of life & charity must have had an impact on strengthening the Catholic Church
                      1. 'They restored the confidence of many Catholics in their Church' - K.Randell
                      2. Established around Matteo da Bascio - wished to follow the example of St Francis & preach the Gospel in a simple & direct manner to people
                        1. Bascio wore a pointed hood (cappuccino) which imitates his saintly approach
                        2. Their vicar-general, Bernardino Ochino left & became Protestant in 1541 - this did not affect them
