Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Medieval Political Theory in the West, Vol. 4 In this volume I have endeavoured to put together some detailed account of the theories of the relations of the Papacy and the Empire from the beginning of the tenth century to the latter part of the twelfth. I have not endeavoured to deal with the more general subject of the relations or oppositions of the ecclesiastical order and the secular. Some aspects of these have been already discussed in the first and second volumes of this work, and we shall probably return to them in the next volume; but I should like to remind our readers that the subject of this work is not the history, either civil or ecclesiastical, of the Middle Ages, but the political theories, and we deal with the relations of the Temporal and Spiritual powers only so far as they seem to us to have tended to influence the development of these theories. I do not indeed think that these relations had as much effect upon political theory in general as has been sometimes suggested. The great political conceptions of the Middle Ages, the supremacy of law, the authority of the community, the contractual relation between ruler and subject, were only incidentally affected by the question of the relations of the two Powers. And yet I think that we are justified in devoting a whole volume to the conflicts of the Empire and the Papacy in the eleventh and twelfth centuries for two reasons.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Mediaval Political Theory in the West, Vol. 6 The truth is, as it seems to me, that from the fourteenth cen tury the history of the relations of the Temporal and Spiritual authorities, while we must not overlook the great import ance of Papal authority, must be studied primarily under the terms of the relations of Church and State within the separate nations. This is true of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, and even more of the sixteenth, and that not only in the Reformed but also in the Catholic countries. These questions are so important that their proper treatment would require a detailed examination of the circumstances and the literature of the subject in each of the more important Western countries, and this is a task of a formidable complexity and magnitude.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Mediaeval Political Theory in the West, Vol. 3: Political Theory From the Tenth Century to the Thirteenth The first principle of the political theory of the Middle Ages is that the function of political authority is to maintain justice, 18l - this is the real meaning of the conception that the authority of the king is divine, 182 - the second principle is the supremacy of law as the embodiment of justice, 183 - the third is that the relation between ruler and people is founded upon the mutual obligation and agreement to maintain justice and law, 185.

It has been thought that with the disappearance of the free Greek communities political specula tion became wholly abstract and lifeless; that the freedom of men's political thought was first crushed by the weight of the great empires, and then lost in the confusion of the barbaric invasions in which the ancient civilisation perished, and that in the sixteenth century political theory arose suddenly and without any immediate antecedents, being grounded in part upon original reflection, abstract or related to actual political conditions, and in part on the recovery of ancient philosophy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Mediæval Political Theory in the West, Vol. 5: The Political Theory of the Thirteenth Century The normal political theory of the Middle Ages was not Aristotelian, but was derived from the post-aristotelian philosophy mainly through the Roman Law and the Christian Fathers. It was not till the thirteenth century that mediaeval thinkers became acquainted with the Aristotelian political theory. In this chapter we shall consider the effects of this discovery in the attempt made by St Thomas Aquinas to restate some fundamental conceptions of political theory in the terms of Aristotle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Mediaeval Political Theory in the West, Vol. 2: The Political Theory of the Roman Lawyers and the Canonists, From the Tenth Century to the Thirteenth Century With this volume we begin the treatment of the political theory of the great period of the Middle Ages, our first volume having really the character of an introduction to this. The materials have, on closer examination, proved to be so large and complex that we have been compelled to devote a whole volume to the political ideas embodied in the two great systems of law which are derived directly from the ancient world. I have felt very keenly how difficult and dangerous a thing it is for a student of history, who has no technical legal training, to deal with those great juristic documents; and indeed I should have felt much hesitation in presenting the result of this work to the public if it had not been for the great kindness of a number of scholars eminent in the civil and the canon law. I must therefore express my most sincere thanks, first to Professor Fitting of Halle, Professor Meynial of Paris, and Professor Vinogradoff of Oxford, who have very kindly read the proofs of the first part- of this volume: and secondly, to Professor Andrea Galante of Innsbruck, who has been so kind as to read the proofs of the second part.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Mediaeval Political Theory in the West, Vol. 5: The Political Theory of the Thirteenth Century It is now a little more than thirty-five years since we began this work, and this volume represents more or less what we then thought to produce, but we had not gone very far before we recognised that in order to understand the real character of the poetical theory of the Middle Ages it was necessary to go back for many centuries, especially to the Roman Jurists of the second century, and to the Christian Fathers, and even to make some examination of the political conceptions of the post-Aristotelian philosophy, from which both Jurists and Fathers derived some of their most important principles. We have in previous volumes therefore endeavoured to set out something of the history of mediaeval political theory, and to give their due weight to the various traditions out of which it arose, and by which it was influenced in varying degrees. In this volume we have endeavoured to set out the culmination of this long process of development in the thirteenth century. We hope to publish another volume dealing with the movements of political thought from the fourteenth to the sixteenth centuries - that is, during the period of the Renaissance - and to inquire what if any new conceptions of importance took their rise during these centuries, and thus to see more clearly how far modern political conceptions are continuous with those of the Middle Ages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Medieval Political Ideas, Vol. 1 Medieval political thought has another kind of interest. It is common, and in a sense correct, to refer to the unity Of medieval civilization, but there is a sense in which one could as plausibly refer to its exceptional dichotomy. The medieval centuries were, roughly speaking, an age in which the conceptual frameworks used by the intellectuals were much more remote from the shape of contemporary institutions than is usually the case. Accordingly, a great part of medieval thought developed from its inherited intellectual chromosomes with compara tively little influence from its environment; and a great part Of what seem to us the Obviously salient characteristics of that environment were only gradually, painfully, and incompletely formulated into usable conceptual schemes. This is one reason, of course, why the field of medieval political theory is so baffling to the novice, who expects to find in any system of thought some kind of rationalization or, at any rate, some evident reflection Of contemporary life. But, if one starts by recognizing the fact of dichotomy, even a superficial acquaintance with medieval political thought can be a fascinating experience. It is a case study in the remarkable vitality Of ideas uprooted from the soil in which they had grown; it is a case study in the extreme difficulty which men find, without the help of a continuous and relevant intel lectual tradition, in defining the terms of their own daily life and work; it is a case study in the slow and devious ways in which the culture Of one civilization can meet and blend with the routine patterns of a civilization that is very different. For the process of assimilation did go on throughout the Middle Ages: concept and custom interacted and finally merged. Perhaps the process was completed, SO far as such a process is ever completed, in the sixteenth century. It seemed, then, worth while to ease the terms on which modern students can gain access to the world Of medieval political thought, through making a collection of translated passages, numerous enough to plot out the variety Of opinion, long enough to indicate the process Of thought as well as its conclusions. It also seemed desirable to orient the reader in this material through introductory essays which would trace the development Of thought, point out the interrelated influences that shaped it, and attempt to suggest its ultimate significance.
