Excerpt: ...betook himself to Rome, Simplicius, then bishop of Rome, full of indignation sent letters to Zeno the Emperor complaining against Acacius. Felix, the successor of Simplicius, continued the feud; he issued edicts and cited Acacius to appear at Rome, and then excommunicated him, as the Romanists pretend, according to the canons, for having communication with Moggus, a heretic. This excommunication he reiterated, and included the name of Peter Fullo. Acacius resisted this bold innovation, and took exceptions against' it; he excommunicated Felix, the bishop of Rome, and erased his name from the sacred registers. Felix died, but the strife was continued by his successor Gelasius. Acacius, having the support of the Emperors Zeno and Anastasius, kept his ground; but in the reign of Justin the Emperor, the names of Acacius and Moggus, together with those of the two Emperors, who were then dead, were erased, by the machinations of the bishops of Rome, from the sacred registers8.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides the first geographically broad, comparative survey of early modern 'sacred history', or writing on the history of the Christian Church, its leaders and saints, and its institutional and doctrinal developments, in the two centuries from c. 1450-1650. With deep medieval roots, ecclesiastical history was generally a conservative enterprise, often serving to reinforce confessional, national, regional, dynastic, or local identities. But writers of sacred history innovated in research methods and in techniques of scholarly production, especially after the advent of print. The demand for sacred history was particularly acute in the various movements for religious reform, in both Catholic and Protestant traditions. After the Renaissance, many writers sought to apply humanist critical principles to writing about the church, but the sceptical thrust of humanist historiography threatened to undermine many ecclesiastical traditions, and religious historians often had to wrestle with tensions between criticism and piety. Thirteen thematic chapters examine the influence of Renaissance humanism, religious reform, and other political, intellectual, and social developments of these two centuries on the writing of ecclesiastical history in its various forms. These diverse genres, inherited from medieval culture, included saints' lives, diocesan histories, national chronicles, and travel accounts. Early chapters examine Catholic and Protestant traditions of sacred historiography in western Europe, especially Italy and Switzerland. Subsequent chapters examine particular instances of sacred historiography in Germany, central Europe, Spain, England, Ireland, France, and Portuguese India; and developments in Christian art historiography and Holy Land antiquarianism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 500 years ago, Martin Luther nailed his ideas to a church door - and the Reformation began. Or maybe it was a little more complicated than that. Nick Page brings his skills as an unlicensed historian to bear on this key period in European (and world) history in order to uncover everything you need to know about the Reformation - with a fair few bits you never wanted to know thrown in for good measure. Historians tell us that the Protestant Reformation laid the foundations for the Industrial Revolution, religious freedom, and all sorts of other Good Things. But what actually happened? Who were the winners and the losers, the ogres and the beauty queens of this key moment in church history? (spoiler: there weren't any beauty queens) In-depth research, historical analysis and cutting-edge guesswork combine to scintillating effect in this fast-moving examination of the strange and wonderful whirlwind that was church life in late medieval Europe.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Church: From the Earliest Ages to the Reformation An attempt to compress into the following pages the ecclesiastical history of fifteen centuries, requires some previous explanation, lest any should imagine that this undertaking ha 3 been entered upon rashly, and without due consideration of its difficulty. This is not the case; I am not blind to the various and even opposite dangers which beset it; and least of all am I insensible to the peculiar and most solemn importance of the subject. But I approach it with deliberation as well as reverence, willing to consecrate to Gods service the fruits of an insufficient, but not careless diligence, and also trusting, by His divine aid, to preserve the straight path which leads through truth unto wisdom. The principles by which I have been guided require no preface; they will readily develops themselves, as they are the simplest in human nature. But, respecting the general plan which has been followed in the conduct of this work, a few words appear to be necessary. In the first place I have abandoned the method of division by centuries, which has too long perplexed ecclesiastical history, and have endeavoured to regulate the partition by the dependence of connected events, and the momentous revolutions which have arisen from it. It is one advantage in this plan, that it has very frequently enabled me to collect under one head, to digest by a single effort, and present, in one uninterrupted view, materials bearing in reality upon the same point, but which, by the more usual method, are separated and distracted. It is impossible to ascertain the proportions or to estimate the real weight of any single subject amidst the events which surround it it is impossible to draw from it those sober and applicable conclusions which alone distinguish history from romance, unless we bring the corresponding portions into contact, in spite of the interval which time may have thrown between them: for time has scattered his lessons over the records of humanity with a profuse but careless hand, and both the diligence and the judgment of man must be exercised to collect and arrange them, so as to extract from their combined qualities the true odor of wisdom. It is another advantage in the method which I have adopted, that it affords greater facility to bring into relief and illustrate matters which are really important and have had lasting effects; since it is chiefly by fixing attention and awakening reflection on those great phenomena which have not only stamped a character on the age to which they belong, but have influenced the conduct and happiness of after ages, that history asserts her prerogative above a journal or an index, not permitting thought to be dispersed nor memory wasted upon a minute narration of detached incidents and transient and inconsequential details. And, in this matter, I admit that my judgment has been very freely exercised in proportioning the degree of notice to the permanent weight and magnitude of events. As regards the treatment of particular branches of this subject, all readers are aware how zealously the facts of ecclesiastical history have been disputed, and how frequently those differences have been occasioned or widened by the peculiar opinions of the disputants. Respecting the former, it is sufficient to say that the limits of this work obviously prevent the author from pursuing and unfolding all the intricate perplexities of critical controversy. I have, therefore, generally contented myself, in questions of ordinary moment, with following, sometimes even without comment, what has appeared to me to be the more probable conclusion, and of signifying it as probable only. Respecting the latter, I have found it the most difficult, as it is certainly among the weightiest of my duties, to trace the opinions which have divided Christians in every age regarding matters of high import both in doctrine and discipline.

The cause which he laboured to advance was, however, much more effectually strengthened a few years afterwards by the bestowal of temporal dominion upon the popes. Pepin, mayor of the palace to the king of France, Affairs of Childeric the Third, had long possessed the power, and eagerly desired the title, of royalty. He convened the states of the realm, and proposed that the imbecile Childeric should be dethroned, and that he himself should be elected his successor, if spiritual authority would sanction the design. Ambassadors were accordingly sent to Zachary, bishop of Rome, to enquire whether the law of God would permit the dethronement of a weak and indolent king, and the election of a successor more worthy of the throne? The reply of Zachary was favourable to the interest of Pepin; and the newly-elected monarch shortly afterwards embraced an opportunity of manifesting his gratitude to the papal see. When, in the year 753, the Lombards took possession of those Italian provinces included under the general title of the " Exarchate of Ravenna," and projected the subjugation of the entire peninsula, Stephen II., the successor of Zachary, applied to the court of France for protection and assistance1. Pepin hastened to comply with the request of the pontiff. He crossed the Alps at the beginning of the following year, recovered the provinces from the Lombardic invaders, and then, desirous of testify ing still further his obligations to the chair of St. Peter, transferred to its occupants sovereignty over the entire ExarchateTM....
