Résumé
Designed with the intention of creating behavioral expectations for their audiences, the rules and constitutions of the sores encerradas shape, through their descriptions of the conventual spaces, a set of images of thoughtful enclosure. These would prove, as specialized historiography has established, to be of particular interest for writing the cultural history of feminine spaces in the European Middle Ages. In this regard, here we will outline some particularities related to the material, iconic and functional definition, in the legislative tradition of the Order of St. Clare, of the entrance doors to the conventual environment as thresholds of the enclosure. Thus embedded and considered through the cultural meanings given to the border in the contexts of creation and reception of these rules.
