Abstract | The papacy had authority in all of Latin Christendom. Understandably, the realities of papal power varied depending on location and time. This panel will address the relationships that the papacy (individual popes, the papal curia, cardinals) had with the realms of England, Poland, and Portugal. With this focus on more distant lands, the physicality of the relationships as well as their dynamics will contribute to the ever-expanding scholarship on the functioning of the medieval papacy. This will also illustrate how these peripheral polities and provinces forced the papacy to change to accommodate these new relationships. |
