Abstract | The first of a strand on the 'Medieval Papacy, c.500-1500'. This session looks at the networks and entanglements of late antique and early medieval papacy. Paper-a presents the role of early medieval canon law collections in the representation of papal institutional networks. Paper-b explores epistemology and papal networks by examining Gregory the Great's concepts of monasticism within his letters. Paper-c deals with the reception of Pope Sylvester I as an exemplary image of the high clergy within the religious environment of late 15th-century Moldavia through entangled sources. |
