The contributions make it clear that local and individual factors and the Christian faith and religion in practice must not be seen as separate from the global power of the Roman curia. The latter's influence could become directly important for any individual in any local space, even .et usque ad ultimum terrae (Acts 1:8), in the utmost peripheries of the Christian world. It is shown that the assistance of the Apostolic Penitentiary was indispensable in a large variety of cases. Such cases were dealt with both in the local, regional space and in the globalized centre of the Holy See.CEU medievalia ;10.PenitentsHistoryMedieval, Middle Ages, Vatican, Catholic Church, 15th century.PenitentsHistory.262/.136Jaritz Gerhard1949-152575Jørgensen Torstein1951-1517443Salonen Kirsi454214MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910793454203321The Apostolic Penitentiary in local contexts3754531UNINA
