| The Carthusians are a contemplative order who devote their lives to considering their faith in silence. |
| A wise combination of the communal and solitary elements of monasticism, Carthusians lived in separate cells with more private than common prayer. |
| New monastic orders were founded, including the Carthusians and the Cistercians. |
| The entry on the rosary links its spread to Dominicans when, in fact, the medieval Carthusians were largely responsible for its popularity. |
| A few, including eighteen Carthusians, refused and were killed to the last man. |
| The Carthusians were bled five times, and the Dominicans four times in the year. |
