White Canons, from the See also:colour of the See also:habit: an orderof Augustinian Canons founded in 1120 by St Norbert, after-wards See also:archbishop of See also:Magdeburg. He had made various efforts to introduce a strict See also:form of canonical See also:life in various communities of canons in See also:Germany; in 1120 he was working in the See also:diocese of See also:Laon, and there in a See also:desert See also:place, called Premontre, in See also:Aisne, he and thirteen companions established a monastery to be the See also:cradle of a new See also:- ORDER

order. They were canons See also:regular and followed the so-called See also:Rule of St See also:Augustine (see See also:AUGUSTINIANS), but with supplementary statutes that made the life one of See also:great austerity. St Norbert was a friend of St See also:Bernard of See also:Clairvaux—and he was largely influenced by the Cistercian ideals as to both the manner of life and the See also:government of his order. But as the Premonstratensians were not monks but canons regular, their See also:work was See also:preaching and the exercise of the See also:pastoral See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office, and they served a large number of parishes incorporated in their monasteries. The order was founded in 1120; in 1126, when it received papal approbation, there were nine houses; and others were established in See also:quick See also:succession throtthout western See also:Europe, so that at the See also:middle of the 14th See also:century there are said to have been over 1300 monasteries of men and 400 of See also:women. The Premonstratensians played a predominant See also:part in the See also:conversion of the See also:Wends and the Christianizing and civilizing of the territories about the See also:Elbe and the See also:Oder. In See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O.

time mitigations and relaxations crept in, and these gave rise to reforms and semi-See also:independent congregations within the order. The Premonstratensians came into England (c. 1143) first at Newhouse in See also:Lincoln, and before the See also:dissolution under See also:- HENRY

Henry VIII. there were 35 houses. At the beginning of the 19th century the order had been almost exterminated, only eight houses surviving, all in the See also:Austrian dominions. There are now some 20 monasteries and See also:I000 canons, who serve numerous parishes; and there are two or three small houses in England. The strength of the order now lies in See also:Belgium, where at Tongerloo is a great Premonstratensian See also:abbey that still maintains a semblance of its See also:medieval See also:state.
