In June 1221 Pope Honorius III gave legatine powers to three French archbishops, with a mandate to do what was necessary to promote the second Albigensian Crusade. Above all, what the Church's champion in Languedoc, Amalric de Montfort, needed was money so that he could hire mercenaries to fight against the successfully resurgent Provencal nobility. Accordingly, each of the archbishop-legates conferred with the bishops of his legation (in councils unnoticed by Mansi and the other conciliar collectors), and imposed a twentieth on ecclesiastical revenues for the three years 1221–1223. Papal taxes had not yet become a routine matter; hence the Albigensian tax was necessarily an experiment in which the Roman curia learned important lessons for the future, notably the value of using curial personnel rather than local clergy as tax collectors. This paper assembles what is known of the tax, and attempts to assess its significance in the history of papal taxation. 相似文献

This examination of the murder of King Peter I of Cyprus concentrates on trying to understand the grievances which led a group of his vassals to kill him. An attempt is made to bring the Cypriot narrative accounts of the event under critical control, in the course of which the murder is redated and the guilt of the king's brothers established. The careers of the other knights involved are then analysed, and this analysis — together with a survey of an ordonnance issued in the immediate aftermath of the murder — help place the deed in the context of the effects that Peter's warfare against the Mamluk sultanate of Egypt was having on Cypriot noble society. A suggestion is then offered as to why the vassals resorted to murder rather than relying on constitutional restraints to achieve their aims. 相似文献

This article studies illegitimacy, which was a canonical impediment to ordination, within the English clergy between 1198 and 1348. Scholarship on illegitimacy in the clergy has previously relied on canon law, conciliar decrees, and dispensations preserved in papal registers. Using these sources, historians have concluded that the papacy tightly controlled illegitimate men's access to orders, that the burdens of obtaining dispensations for illegitimacy (the defectus natalium) could pose substantial obstacles to a man's clerical career, and that priests' sons made up a significant percentage of the illegitimate clergy. This article, which draws on the large and previously untapped body of dispensations surviving in English episcopal registers to supplement the papal sources, reaches different conclusions. It argues that the great majority of illegitimate clerics in the thirteenth- and fourteenth-century English clergy were the sons of unmarried lay parents. It further argues that dispensations were more readily accessible than has previously been suggested, and emphasises the importance of local branches of the ecclesiastical hierarchy to an individual's efforts to attain a dispensation to enter holy orders. 相似文献

The conventional view of Giotto is that he was a great narrative and dramatic painter. In addition his art was ideologically aligned with the Guelph party in Florence and its allies: the papacy, the Franciscan establishment and the house of Anjou. This can be traced in his paintings, especially the fresco cycles. Internal evidence suggests that in addition to his acknowledged cycle for the Scrovegni family in Padua he was the principal artistic deviser of many of the disputed frescoes in the nave of the Upper Church at Assisi, including the paintings of the life of St. Francis.There is also evidence that many of his frescoes in various parts of Italy (including cycles no longer extant) were undertaken at the behest of the Florentine commune as part of its diplomacy. He was in fact the first artist to become part of the bourgeois ruling class, and his spatial and plastic realism was in complete accord with their interests.The Scrovegni cycle is more complex than has been realised, involving a profound allegory which fulfils the needs of the patron, expresses Giotto's world view, and at the same time serves the diplomatic interest of Florence. 相似文献

The purpose of this section of the Journal of medieval history is to include a brief notice of new books in medieval history, and to list new editions and reprints, appearing during the months immediately preceding the date of publication of each issue. The Journal will not carry reviews; it asks publishers to send, instead of copies of new books, brief notices about them of not more than 150 words in length. To meet the cost of this exercise, the Journal is obliged to charge a fee of $10 (£5) for a brief announcement (max. 150 words) and $5 (£2.50) for listing a reprint or new edition. Texts of such announcements and details of reprints, together with remittance, should be sent to the Publisher, from whom further details of the scheme may be had. 相似文献
