The Great Popes Through History
Author: Frank J. CoppaPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
Unlike other references that cover all the popes, or the papacy in general with only examples from various popes, the two-volume encyclopedia presents longer and more detailed articles about those deemed to have most influenced the development of the church and the course of history. The arrangement is by period: early from Peter through Pelagius (590), medieval from Gregory I through Boniface VIII (1303), Renaissance and Reformation from Benedict XI through Pius IV (1565), early modern from Pius V through Clement XIV (1774), and modern from Pius VI through John Paul II. The two volumes are paged and indexed together. Bibliographies are entry specific. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.

Monarchy and Community
Author: A. J. BlackPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521023047
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
A study of political ideas in the conflict between the Council of Basle (1431-1449) and Pope Eugenius IV (1431-1447). The supporters of conciliar and papal supremacy each developed a remarkable array of political doctrines, which can now be seen as the immediate ancestors of later, more famous theories of 'democracy' and 'monarchy' respectively. Dr Black discusses both the development and the meaning of these doctrines, and their contribution to the notion of constitutional democracy and of monarchical sovereignty respectively. Both doctrines, he suggests, find a place in the modern state. He also examines the papacy's attempt to forge an international alliance of rulers, based on the monarchical view of sovereignty, against the Council. Extracts from writing of the two leading figures in the dispute, John of Segovia and John Turrecremata, are given in appendices.

Pages : 596
Book Description
One of the most enduring and influential of all human institutions, the papacy has also been amongst the most controversial. No one who seeks to make sense of modern issues within Christendom -- or, indeed, world history -- can neglect the vital shaping role of the popes. In Keepers of the Keys of Heaven, eminent religion scholar Roger Collins offers a masterful account of the entire arc of papal history -- from the separation of the Greek and Latin churches to the contemporary controversies that threaten the unity of the one billion-strong worldwide Catholic community. A definitive and accessible guide to what is arguably the world's most vaunted office, Keepers of the Keys of Heaven is essential reading for anyone interested in the role of faith in the shaping of our world.
