Resum:
In this doctoral thesis there is studied the acoustic behavior of the Cistercian masculine monasteries of the Camp of Tarragona. Previous studies exist on the acústica of Cistercian abbeys, of the French Provence and of the north of Italy, which results raise a supposed advanced knowledge of acoustics on the part of the monks Cistercian. Nevertheless, the available information for this architectural typology, for the antiquity(antique) and methodology of the same ones, is limited and, in occasions, the studied parameters are slightly relevant. There appears this way the possibility of a complete study of the principal stays of the monasteries to determine his(her,your) acoustic response and to restate the theories proposed in the previous studies. The Cistercian architecture comes marked by the strict contemplation that of St Benedict's Rule Bernard de Claraval implemented. In his writing of 1124 Apology to William, Bernard established the theoretical criteria that then would be used in the construction of all the Cistercian abbeys. The base of these is the spirit of poverty and rigorous asceticism
