Book Synopsis Avignon and Its Papacy, 1309–1417 by : Joëlle Rollo-Koster
Download or read book Avignon and Its Papacy, 1309–1417 written by Joëlle Rollo-Koster and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-08-20 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the arrival of Clement V in 1309, seven popes ruled the Western Church from Avignon until 1378. Joëlle Rollo-Koster traces the compelling story of the transplanted papacy in Avignon, the city the popes transformed into their capital. Through an engaging blend of political and social history, she argues that we should think more positively about the Avignon papacy, with its effective governance, intellectual creativity, and dynamism. It is a remarkable tale of an institution growing and defending its prerogatives, of people both high and low who produced and served its needs, and of the city they built together. As the author reconsiders the Avignon papacy (1309–1378) and the Great Western Schism (1378–1417) within the social setting of late medieval Avignon, she also recovers the city’s urban texture, the stamp of its streets, the noise of its crowds and celebrations, and its people’s joys and pains. Each chapter focuses on the popes, their rules, the crises they faced, and their administration but also on the history of the city, considering the recent historiography to link the life of the administration with that of the city and its people. The story of Avignon and its inhabitants is crucial for our understanding of the institutional history of the papacy in the later Middle Ages. The author argues that the Avignon papacy and the Schism encouraged fundamental institutional changes in the governance of early modern Europe—effective centralization linked to fiscal policy, efficient bureaucratic governance, court society (société de cour), and conciliarism. This fascinating history of a misunderstood era will bring to life what it was like to live in the fourteenth-century capital of Christianity.

Not illustrated. 1911 edition. Excerpt: ... chapter vi john xxii the black art--wealth of the papal court A cardinal'S hoard The new pontiff owed his election to the influenceN of the royal house of France, for he had steadfastly supported Philip the Fair in his spoliation of the Templars. Although in his seventy-second year, and partly chosen for his advanced age, John proved to be possessed of remarkable vigour and force of character. His subtlety gave rise to a popular story that he finally compassed his election by a promise to the Roman cardinals never to mount horse or mule save to journey to Rome; and then, not to be foresworn, dropped down the Rhone from Lyons in a boat, entered the episcopal palace at Avignon on foot, and never left it again save to cross to the cathedral.1 Villani informs us with his usual bias, that Jacques d'Euse elected himself, and that he was a cobbler's son;2 but, although not of noble birth, as some of his apologists have sought to prove, he came of an honourable and substantial middle-class family of Cahors. Like Zacchacus, Jacques d'Euse was small in stature, but he was great in the scholastic learning of the day and a profound master of the canon law. Feeble of voice, yet forceful in purpose, he was harsh and inflexible to any who crossed his path, and his 1 Baluze, Vol. I. p. 178. 2 Lib. ix. ch. 79. austere habits and immense capacity for work made him a formidable protagonist of Gallic interests. John xxii was the first of the popes to contemplate a Transalpine seat at Avignon. Clement V, so far from settling there, had, just before his death, decided to remove

Book Synopsis The Clement Bible at the Medieval Courts of Naples and Avignon by : CathleenA. Fleck
Download or read book The Clement Bible at the Medieval Courts of Naples and Avignon written by CathleenA. Fleck and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a 'biography' of the fourteenth-century illustrated Bible of Clement VII, an opposition pope in Avignon from 1378-94, this social history traces the Bible's production in Naples (c. 1330) through its changing ownership and meaning in Avignon (c. 1340-1405) to its presentation as a gift to Alfonso, King of Aragon (c. 1424). The author's novel approach, based on solid art historical and anthropological methodologies, allows her to assess the object's evolving significance and the use of such a Bible to enhance the power and prestige of its princely and papal owners. Through archival sources, the author pinpoints the physical location and privileged treatment of the Clement Bible over a century. The author considers how the Bible's contexts in the collection of a bishop, several popes, and a king demonstrate the value of the Bible as an exchange commodity. The Bible was undoubtedly valued for the aesthetic quality of its 200+ luxurious images. Additionally, the author argues that its iconography, especially Jerusalem and visionary scenes, augments its worth as a reflection of contemporary political and religious issues. Its images offered biblical precedents, its style represented associations with certain artists and regions in Italy, and its past provided links to important collections. Fleck's examination of the art production around the Bible in Naples and Avignon further illuminates the manuscript's role as a reflection of the court cultures in those cities. Adding to recent art historical scholarship focusing on the taste and signature styles in late medieval and Renaissance courts, this study provides new information about workshop practices and techniques. In these two court cities, the author analyzes styles associated with different artists, different patrons, and even with different rooms of the rulers' palaces, offering new findings relevant to current scholarship, not only in art history but also in court and collection studies.
