Urban case studies -- part II. Ecclesiastical perspectives -- part III. Comparisons beyond central and northern Italy.Why, when so driven by the impetus for autonomy, did the city elites of thirteenth-century Italy turn to men bound to religious orders whose purpose and reach stretched far beyond the boundaries of their often disputed territories? Churchmen and Urban Government in Late Medieval Italy, c.1200-c.1450 brings together a team of international contributors to provide the first comparative response to this pivotal question. Presenting a series of urban cases and contexts, the book explores the secular-religious boundaries of the period and evaluates the role of the clergy in the administration and government of Italy's city-states. With an extensive introduction and epilogue, it exposes for consideration the beginnings of the phenomenon, the varying responses of churchmen, the reasons why practices changed and how politics and religious identity relate to each other. This important new study has significant implications for our understanding of power, negotiation, bureaucracy and religious identity.Churchmen & Urban Government in Late Medieval Italy, c.1200-c.1450Christianity and politicsItalyHistoryChristianity and politicsItalyHistoryCase studiesItalyChurch history476-1400ItalyPolitics and government1268-1559Christianity and politicsHistory.Christianity and politicsHistory322/.109450902Andrews FrancesUkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910813437803321Churchmen and urban government in late Medieval Italy, c. 1200-c.14504052759UNINA
