	Canon (priest) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Originally, a canon was a cleric living with others in a clergyhouse or, later, in one of the houses within the precinct or close of a cathedral and ordering his life according to the orders or rules of the church.
		One of the functions of the cathedral canons in the Roman Catholic Church is to elect a Vicar Capitular to serve during a sede vacante period of the diocese.
		A canon is a member of the chapter of (for the most part) priests, headed by a Dean, which is responsible for administering a cathedral or certain other churches that are styled collegiate church.

	More about Canons Regular
		Karl Egger, C.R.L. Canons Regular differ from other Orders in so far as they have no founder of their own: they are the outcome of a living organism of the Church and for this reason their institution is rather more flexible and less uniform especially with regard to the religious habit and internal constitution.
		Canons Regular since the XII century have been known as Augustinian or Austin Canons taking their name from St Augustine, the great Doctor of the Church, for he realized in an ideal way the common life of the Clergy, and because from that time the Canons adopted the "Rule" of Augustine.
		Every Canon Regular belonged to that house in which he made his vows but he could be transferred to another house in the interest of the common good of the Order (subsidium Ordinis), or for any other grave reason, at the same time he continued to belong to his own monastery.

	Common Aspects of Monastic Life
		Regular canons and canonesses, whose lives are regulated by the Rule of St. Augustine, form the second group.
		In contrast, the regular canonical orders evolved out of a reformist desire to combine the parochial responsibilities of the secular clergy with the "full common life" in which all property is enjoyed collectively instead of being held individually by the canons [2].
		Finally, communities of regular canons are fairly popular foundations, in part because they tend to require theadvowson or appropriation of churches instead of manors, and the bestowing of an ecclesiastical benefice is often cheaper for the donor than the provision of land [11].
