AB The enclosure of women devoted to the religious life inside convents, definitively imposed in 1298,is an appropriate topic for discussing gender. It shows relationships between men and women, masculineand feminine roles, and the importance of gender in the religious world. Some religiousorders had adopted the enclosure of nuns in previous years, and they experienced problems thatbecame general during the 14th and 15th centuries. This contribution specifically analyses the situationof the Dominican Order in the Kingdom of Castile during the 13th century. From 1267the spiritual care of nuns was officially entrusted to male clergy, while their secular affairs wereentrusted to Dominican friars. But in fact this division was not really strict, because nuns turned toall of them without distinction even before 1267. The fact is that they could not act independentlyof men’s jurisdiction, and separate roles were established for friars, the secular clergy and nuns.
