The Popes and the Church of Rome in Late Antiquity - John Moorhead - Bog

Bag om The Popes and the Church of Rome in Late Antiquity

Popes and the Church of Rome in Late Antiquity considers the ability of the Roman church to gain access to wealth, retain it in difficult times, and disburse it in ways that enhanced its authority. Author John Moorhead evaluates patterns in the recruitment of popes and what these suggest about the background of those who came to papal office. Structured around a narrative of the papacy¿s history from the accession of Leo the Great to the death of Zacharias II, the book does more than tell what happened between these years, applying new approaches in intellectual, cultural, and social history to provide a uniquely deep and holistic study of the period.
