The Episcopal Colleagues of Archbishop Thomas Becket

Více o knize

Focusing on pivotal moments in 12th-century English church history, the author examines the collective actions and perspectives of bishops during critical crises in 1164 and 1169. Highlighting the often-overlooked role of the bishops alongside Archbishop Thomas, the text argues that their unified or divided responses could have significantly altered the trajectory of church policy. By analyzing these dynamics, the work aims to provide a more nuanced understanding of the ecclesiastical landscape and the shared beliefs among the clergy of that era.
