Résumé anglais Domus, Grangia, Honor and Others. Naming Cistercian Houses in Languedoc and Eastern Gascony (1130–1220)Semantic analysis shows that the vocabulary of the 3,785 Cistercian orders, which were generally older than the 1,200 monasteries of Berdoues, Gimont, Grandselve, Silvanès and Valmagne, is not significantly different from that of their Benedictine equivalents when naming their monastic houses. In Languedoc and Eastern Gascony, there are, at most, only two specific usages found: the use of domus to designate the house's spiritual side, and grangia for other houses on the estate. The use of the latter term is rare and subject to varying criteria depending on distance from the monastery. However, examining the information from the observing scribe's perspective imposes modest conclusions. Whereas the analysis highlights common practice within an establishment, by using earlier documents and formularies as examples, it also reveals that there were more distinctive usages, which were probably linked to learning traditions.
