Abstract | This session will consider the many roles that bishops played in defining, defending, and breaking down border and boundaries in the long Middle Ages. Borders here will be broadly considered and will vary from geographical designations to cultural expectations and the very fruitful space in between. Papers will allow us to examine bishops as rule makers, as conduits, and as transgressors. |
