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. 517 3 $aChurchmen & Urban Government in Late Medieval Italy, c.1200-c.1450 606 $aChristianity and politics$zItaly$xHistory 606 $aChristianity and politics$zItaly$xHistory$vCase studies 607 $aItaly$xChurch history$y476-1400 607 $aItaly$xPolitics and government$y1268-1559 615 0$aChristianity and politics$xHistory. 615 0$aChristianity and politics$xHistory 676 $a322/.109450902 702 $aAndrews$b Frances 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790735403321 996 $aChurchmen and urban government in late Medieval Italy, c. 1200-c.1450$93742332 997 $aUNINA
