Context: Catholic religious orders are, historically, a category of Catholic religious institutes., Religiosam vitam is the "incipit" designating a Papal bull issued on December 22, 1216 by Pope Honorius III. It gave universal recognition to the Dominican Order. The Order already had monasteries in Rome, Paris and Boulogne and had already been locally recognized by the bishop of Toulouse the year before - its creation had coincided with the Albigensian Crusade in southern France, in whose support the Dominicans had been very active. It adopted the rule of St Augustine, but was also regulated by rulings and decisions taken by regular general chapters., A friar is a member of one of the mendicant orders founded since the twelfth or thirteenth century; the term distinguishes the mendicants' itinerant apostolic character, exercised broadly under the jurisdiction of a superior general, from the older monastic orders' allegiance to a single monastery formalized by their vow of stability. The most significant orders of friars are the Dominicans, Franciscans, Augustinians and Carmelites., France, officially the French Republic, is a country with territory in western Europe and several overseas regions and territories. The European, or metropolitan, area of France extends from the Mediterranean Sea to the English Channel and the North Sea, and from the Rhine to the Atlantic Ocean. Overseas France include French Guiana on the South American continent and several island territories in the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian oceans. France spans and had a total population of almost 67 million people as of January 2017. It is a unitary semi-presidential republic with the capital in Paris, the country's largest city and main cultural and commercial centre. Other major urban centres include Marseille, Lyon, Lille, Nice, Toulouse and Bordeaux., The Order of Preachers (postnominal abbreviation O.P.), also known as the Dominican Order, is a mendicant Catholic religious order founded by the Spanish priest Dominic of Caleruega in France, approved by Pope Honorius III via the papal bull "Religiosam vitam" on 22 December 1216. Members of the order, who are referred to as "Dominicans", generally carry the letters O.P. after their names, standing for "Ordinis Praedicatorum", meaning "of the Order of Preachers". Membership in the order includes friars, nuns, active sisters, and affiliated lay or secular Dominicans (formerly known as tertiaries, though recently there has been a growing number of associates who are unrelated to the tertiaries)., Leonardo di Piero Dati ( 1360 -- 16 March 1425 ) was an Italian friar and humanist . He was Master general of the Dominican Order from 1414 to his death . He was a Prior of Santa Maria Novella from 1401 , and took part in the Council of Pisa of 1409 . Dati was the head of the Dominicans belonging to the Roman obedience during the Great Schism . At the time of the Council of Constance , Dati became Master General of a reunited Dominican Order . Dati then focused on the internal reform of the order , authoring the tract Lamentationes de regularibus observantiis lapsis , in which he expressed strong dissatisfaction with the laxity and confusion of the order . His sermons at Pisa and Constance include references to literary texts , and he was well known as an author of commentaries on Aristotle . Leonardo also gave financial aid to his brother Gregorio , a Florentine merchant and diarist . Both Leonardo and Gregorio Dati are attributed authorship of La Sfera ( `` The Sphere '' ) , an astronomical - geographic poemetto in ottave , written in the second half of the 14th century , and a work much popular in its time . This work in verse gives information about the world , the marinaresche compass and other things , adding observations , notes about travel and designs . In some manuscripts of La Sfera there are designs representing ports , headlands , islands , linked by many lines . Dati 's sermons on the feast of St. Francis ( October 1416 ) and the feast of the Circumcision of Jesus ( January 1417 ) advocated respect for papal power and reform within the context of the established order . The earlier sermon touched off an exchange of polemical memoranda between Dati and supporters of conciliar supremacy . Dati then addressed issues raised in this exchange in the later sermon . Dati 's discussion of circumcision was traditional for his time , describing the Jewish rite as superseded by baptism . He is buried in the Cappella Rucellai at Santa Maria Novella . His tombstone is attributed to Lorenzo Ghiberti ., Subject: leonardo dati, Relation: occupation, Options: (A) bishop (B) commercial (C) friar (D) member (E) priest (F) religious
