Hello everyone,
This question kinda popped into my head while I was thinking about punks (slightly unrelated I know).
In the Middle Ages, there were a lot of beggar monks, wandering around with no possession exzcept the gospel of Christ, but those seem to disappear long before more "classic" orders fade away.
My question is two-fold:
Why is that? What happened?
Is there a way to keep them to this day?
It seems fitting in our day and age where capitalism/materialism is questionned by people (see: punks) that some would be in a similar situation?
