Keywords:

Abstract
The main features in the spread of religious orders and the proliferation of convents along the Early Modern Age are well known matters nowadays. Any way, research is still needed about some questions in this field. One of these open questions is the study of the failed convents, the ephemeral foundations and the founding projects that never happened. This is the aim of this paper: identifying these failed or ephemeral initiatives and analysing the reasons of their failures, focusing in the Franciscan family and taking the religious chronicles as the main source.Downloads
