  • Publisher : CUA Press

  • ISBN : 0813229227
  • Pages : 561 pages

Download or read book Bonds of Wool written by Steven A. Schoenig and published by CUA Press. This book was released on 2016-10-07 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pallium was effective because it was a gift with strings attached. This band of white wool encircling the shoulders had been a papal insigne and liturgical vestment since late antiquity. It grew in prominence when the popes began to bestow it regularly on other bishops as a mark of distinction and a sign of their bond to the Roman church. Bonds of Wool analyzes how, through adroit manipulation, this gift came to function as an instrument of papal influence. It explores an abundant array of evidence from diverse genres - including chronicles and letters, saints' lives and canonical collections, polemical treatises and liturgical commentaries, and hundreds of papal privileges - stretching from the eighth century to the thirteenth and representing nearly every region of Western Europe. These sources reveal that the papal conferral of the pallium was an occasion for intervening in local churches throughout the West and a means of examining, approving, and even disciplining key bishops, who were eventually required to request the pallium from Rome.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Book The Papal Monarchy

    Book Details:
  • Author : Colin Morris
  • Publisher : Clarendon Press
  • Release : 1989-05-18
  • ISBN : 0191520535
  • Pages : 694 pages

Download or read book The Papal Monarchy written by Colin Morris and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 1989-05-18 with total page 694 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two centuries covered in this volume were among the most creative in the history of the Church. Colin Morris charts the emergence of much that is considered characteristic of European culture and religion, including universities and commercial cities, the crusades, the friars, chivalry, marriage, and church architecture. In all these developments, the Roman Church played an important and often fundamental role. A re-evaluation of that role is now particularly apt given the dissolution of Christendom in its old form witnessed by today's generation.

Book The Problem of Sovereignty in the Later Middle Ages

Download or read book The Problem of Sovereignty in the Later Middle Ages written by Michael Wilks and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2008-07-31 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sovereignty has always been an important concept in political thought, and at no time in European history was it more important than during the perplexed conditions of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. Universal government was a fading dream, giving way to the new conception of the national state and the whole basis of political thought was being reorientated by the influx of Aristotelian ideas. Dr Wilks's book is an attempt to clarify the more important problems in the political outlook of the period. He shows that at this time the theologians and literary writers, especially Augustinus Triumphus of Ancona, had built up a complete theory of sovereignty in favour of the papal monarchy, based on a neo-Platonic, Augustinian view of the church as a universal and totalitarian state.

Book The Popes and the Papacy in the Early Middle Ages  Routledge Revivals

Download or read book The Popes and the Papacy in the Early Middle Ages Routledge Revivals written by Jeffrey Richards and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been a tendency to the view the history of the early medieval papacy predominantly in ideological terms, which has resulted in the over-exaggeration of the idea of the papal monarchy. In this study, first published in 1979, Jeffrey Richards questions this view, arguing that whilst the papacy’s power and responsibility grew during the period under discussion, it did so by a series of historical accidents rather than a coherent radical design. The title redresses the imbalance implicit in the monarchical interpretation, and emphasizes other important political, administrative and social aspects of papal history. As such it will be of particular value to students interested in the history of the Church; in particular, the development of the early medieval papacy, and the shifting policies and characteristics of the popes themselves.
