Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the relationship between the Roman Catholic Church and England during the early reign of King Henry III. The period covered begins with the death of King John, placing the influence of the Roman church at its peak in England during the 13th century. The role of papal legates, such as Cardinal Guala Bicchieri and Bishop Pandulph, is central to the narrative, highlighting the active involvement of the church in both temporal and spiritual affairs. The author explores the political and ecclesiastical strategies employed to maintain papal power, including the controversial practice of demanding tribute from the English monarchy. The book sheds light on the tension between the church's universal authority, as represented by the papacy, and the sovereignty of the English Crown. Ultimately, it offers a nuanced portrayal of the complex interplay between power and faith during a pivotal era in English history.
