摘要:The observant movement among Dominicans of Castile developed its potentiality from the last decade of 15 th Century. Urged by the wish to return to their origins and within the framework of a society which, on the one hand, was under a process of expansion, and on the other, was fearful of sin, the Dominican communities of Castile brought about a process of self-consciousness and categorization which led to shape a regular life style in which the frequent practice of both the Penance and the Eucharistic sacraments, as well as of some physical practices of immolation acquired the category of distinctive features of the reformed friars.
