Book The Making of Medieval Forgeries

Download or read book The Making of Medieval Forgeries written by Alfred Hiatt and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Making of Medieval Forgeries, Alfred Hiatt focuses on forgery in fifteenth-century England and provides a survey of the practice from the Norman Conquest through to the early sixteenth century, considering the function and context in which the forgeries took place. Hiatt discusses the impact of the advent of humanism on the acceptance of forgeries and stresses the importance of documents to medieval culture, offering a discussion of the relation of the various versions of the chronicle of John Hardyng to the documents he forged, as well as documents pertaining to the charters of Crowland Abbey and various bulls and charters connected with the University of Cambridge. A considerable portion of the book concerns the Donation of Constantine, which involves many continental writers, German, French, and Italian. The Making of Medieval Forgeries further discusses the 'multiplicity of audiences' for forgeries: those that produce, those that approve, and those that are hostile.

Book The Chronicle of Hugh of Flavigny

Download or read book The Chronicle of Hugh of Flavigny written by Dr Patrick Healy and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-06-28 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a detailed study of Hugh of Flavigny and his chronicle, which is widely recognised as one of the most important narratives of a crucial period of European history, that is, the Investiture Contest. Hugh's Chronicon is significant in a number of ways: as a unique source-book for some of the most important primary documents (especially papal letters) generated by the Investiture Contest; as a rare autograph manuscript which gives an important insight into contemporary modes of composition and compilation; as an important history of the 'local' effects of the Investiture Contest in the dioceses of Verdun and Autun; and as a striking autobiography of the author, Hugh of Flavigny. All these aspects are covered in this study by Patrick Healy. Other chapters investigate the context of the work in terms of ecclesiastical politics and use an analysis of the political and theological sources to illustrate the intellectual make-up of a contemporary monk, publicist - and polemicist.

Book King Edward II

Download or read book King Edward II written by Roy Martin Haines and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2003 with total page 636 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Edward of Caernarfon is best known today for his disastrous military defeat in 1314 at Bannockburn, where his English army was defeated by a vastly inferior Scottish force led by Robert the Bruce, leading to Scottish Independence. This catastrophe was one of many in a disastrous career marked by indolence, vengefulness, vacillation in relationships with France, deranged policies at home, and constitutional wrangling, ultimately brought to an end by a minor insurgency led by his vindictive wife and her paramour, a disaffected baron. Roy Martin Haines examines Edward II's eventful life and the more salient periods of his reign, situating the monarch in the context of the "empire" he inherited and the aftermath of his unregretted death"--Publisher's description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the role of trust in public life. It seeks to contribute to a more nuanced understanding of certain fundamental concepts in political and legal theory, such as the concepts of authority, power, social practice, the rule of law, and justice by furnishing and sharpening our concepts of trust and trustworthiness. Bringing together contributors from across the social, cognitive, historical, and political sciences, the book opens up inquiries into central concepts in legal theory as well as new approaches and methodologies. The interdisciplinary contributions analyse the notions of trust, trustworthiness, and distrust and apply them to address a variety of problems and questions.

Book Biographical Register of the English Cathedral Priories of the Province of Canterbury  C  1066 1540

Download or read book Biographical Register of the English Cathedral Priories of the Province of Canterbury C 1066 1540 written by Joan Greatrex and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1997 with total page 994 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This invaluable reference book provides biographical data on some 5,000 Benedictine monks who were members of the eight cathedral priories in Canterbury province between c.1066 and 1540. In the five centuries between the Norman Conquest and the dissolution of the monasteries the cathedralchapters of Bath, Canterbury, Coventry, Ely, Norwich, Rochester, Winchester, and Worcester were all occupied by Benedictine monks; and most of them have been fortunate in the survival of an impressive collection of medieval records. A study of these records makes it possible to reconstruct many details of the daily life of the monks themselves, both inside the cloister and out in the world, where their contact with the laity were not exclusively concerned with spiritual and pastoral matters. Like other men they had to come togrips with economic and financial affairs in managing their properties and providing for the community's basic needs. The information in this volume thus covers a wide range of activities that goes far beyond the limit of religious or ecclesiastical history and includes material that is now, for thefirst time, available for statistical and prosopographical analysis.

Book The Use of Canon Law in Ecclesiastical Administration  1000   1234

Download or read book The Use of Canon Law in Ecclesiastical Administration 1000 1234 written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-11-05 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Use of Canon Law in Ecclesiastical Administration, 1000–1234 explores the integration of canon law within administration and society in the central Middle Ages. Grounded in the careers of ecclesiastical administrators, each essay serves as a case study that couples law with social, political or intellectual developments. Together, the essays seek to integrate the textual analysis necessary to understand the evolution and transmission of the legal tradition into the broader study of twelfth century ecclesiastical government and practice. The essays therefore both place law into the wider developments of the long twelfth century but also highlight points of continuity throughout the period. Contributors are Greta Austin, Bruce C. Brasington, Kathleen G. Cushing, Stephan Dusil, Louis I. Hamilton, Mia Münster-Swendsen, William L. North, John S. Ott, and Jason Taliadoros.

Book The Power of Protocol

    Book Details:
  • Author : D. L. d'Avray
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2023-08-10
  • ISBN : 1009361163
  • Pages : 279 pages

Download or read book The Power of Protocol written by D. L. d'Avray and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-08-10 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did the papacy govern European religious life without a proper bureaucracy and the normal resources of a state? From late Antiquity, papal responses were in demand. The 'apostolic see' took over from Roman emperors the discourse and demeanour of a religious ruler of the Latin world. Over the centuries, it acquired governmental authority analogous to that of a secular state – except that it lacked powers of physical enforcement, a solid financial base (aside from short periods) and a bureaucracy as defined by Max Weber. Through the discipline of Applied Diplomatics, which investigates the structures and settings of documents to solve substantive historical problems, The Power of Protocol explores how such a demand for papal services was met. It is about the genesis and structure of papal documents – a key to papal history generally – from the Roman empire to after the Council of Trent in the sixteenth century, and is the only book of its kind.
