Abstract

The final of a strand on the 'Medieval Papacy, c.500-1500'. This session looks at the anti-popes, papal schism, and inquisition. Paper-a examines the rise of claimants to the papal throne in the 11th and 12th centuries whom the Annuario Pontificio lists as 'anti-popes', arguing with contemporary evidence that they are rightly named. Paper-b sheds light on the different concepts of Church reform that emerge in the context of the 1378 Schism from the prophetic literature of the 14th century and fostered by and within Spiritual Franciscan environment. Paper-c investigates the entangled relationship between the papacy and the Dominican Order in the 13th century.
