Definition of clausura

Definition: Clausura means "close" or "closed" in Latin. In history, it refers to a closed space or area.

Examples:

  • A convent or monastery may have a clausura, which is a closed-off area where the nuns or monks live and work.
  • In medieval times, a castle may have a clausum, which is a closed-off area where the lord and his family lived.

These examples illustrate how clausura refers to a closed-off area or space. In both cases, the clausura is a place where people live and work, but it is separated from the outside world. The term can also be used in legal contexts, such as a "close writ" which is a legal order to close a business or property.

The life of the law has not been logic; it has been experience.
