Sažetak
The reign of Sigismund of Luxembourg (1387 – 1437) was predominantly a prosperous period for the Paulines in the Kingdom of Slavonia. New Pauline churches were built and monasteries were extended, as well as their estates. The number of Pauline Fathers grew and three new Pauline monasteries were established (Lepoglava, Kamensko and Dobra Kuća), which also represent the last Pauline monasteries established in the Late Medieval Period.
Written sources provide information on the conflict between the Pauline monastery in Garić and King Sigismund over the charters of the Priory of Vrana as early as the end of the 14th century. Despite the conflict, the King and Queen granted a number of privileges and special rights to the monastery in Garić, as well as to other Pauline monasteries in Slavonia. King Sigismund, inter alia, secured fast legal proceedings and the possibility to constantly lodge complaints before the courts for the Paulines, about which he was always notified as well. He allowed testamentary freedom and prevented local parish priest from taking the canonical quarter from the Paulines. Preserved documents show that the King personally intervened in a couple of instances with regards to legal proceedings undertaken by the Paulines. The Queen, on the other hand, released a couple of monasteries from paying different taxes. It is unfortunately not known whether she granted the same privileges to other Pauline monasteries in Slavonia due to scarcity of written sources. For now it is also not possible to claim that the King and Queen were more benevolent to the Paulines than towards other monastic orders.
