Synopsis "Episcopal Power and Patronage in Medieval Europe, 998-1503"

The essays in this volume derive from the third and fourth installations of a conference dedicated to examining the 'Power of the Bishop' in the Middle Ages: 'Bishops as Diplomats' and 'The Bishop as Patron'. Taken as a collection, the volume encourages us to seek the power of the bishop in his role as a fulcrum. The essays demonstrate how the medieval bishop was asked, and sometimes used, to balance institutional and individual forces as well as being a person around whom a community revolved. In each of the examples offered here, the acts and the duties of the bishops must be balanced against the needs and the expectations of their communities. This volume also takes into consideration how the community perceived and reacted to the patronage of the bishop, as he was understood to be an arbiter of power, favour, and influence. As patrons, clients, diplomats, allies, and adversaries, bishops were required to act or be acted upon in ways that aligned with, defined, or even defied historical, social, and personal expectations of the office.
