Each of these is associated with the remembrance of the dead. It is an area of religious practice that was subject to momentous change over the course of the period. These changes would have a profound effect on the organization of Christian worship for centuries to come. The thesis assesses how contrasting approaches to the practice of remembrance were able to enhance and shape the composition of the church, and explores what they reveal about the distinctive fellowship of a secular cathedral. 4 Table of Contents Acknowledgements 6 Abbreviations 7 Introduction 9 Chapter One – FOUNDATIONS: HENRY OF HUNTINGDON INTRODUCTION 17 AN ARCHDEACON’S RECOLLECTIONS 21 EPITAPHS 36 ‘THE CUSTOM OF MOSES’ 45 Chapter Two – PETITIONING FOR SOULS INTRODUCTION 59 EARLY ANNIVERSARIES 66 THE EPISODE AT BUCKDEN 82 Chapter Three – BIERS, BELL-TOWERS, AND BURIAL INTRODUCTION 99 THE ADVENT OF ST HUGH 104 THE CATHEDRAL AS GRAVESITE 111 EXHUMATION 117 Chapter Four – THE SAINT’S KEEPERS INTRODUCTION 127 ST HUGH’S HAGIOGRAPHERS 134 LIVING RELICS 148 Conclusion 159 Bibliography 163 5 Acknowledgements Prof Richard Sharpe and Prof John Hudson commented on an earlier version of this work and I am deeply indebted to them for their criticisms, insights, and recommendations.

It is an examination of a body of people and the process of their coming together.1 The inquiry focuses on one part of this process which was central to the formation, growth, and designation of the particular fellowship with which we are concerned: the practice of sustaining, and calling to mind, the memory of the dead. For those living around the twelfth century an understanding of the composition of a church could incorporate the deceased. To appreciate the church in all its dimensions, therefore, it is vital to consider the leading role which the practice of remembrance played. The assembly in question was based at the cathedral church of Lincoln, and was, by any standard, as substantial, intricate, and singular as the outstanding work of architecture in which it was housed. The timeframe of this inquiry covers the most important period in the creation of the social fabric of the church and also of the structure itself. It begins in the late-eleventh century, around the time when the first building was brought to a stage of completion. While parts of the imposing façade date back to this period, today the cathedral is, for the most part, the product of a major building campaign that began in the last decade of the twelfth century and carried on through to the death of Bishop Hugh of Wells, in 1235. This is where the inquiry draws to a close. Over the duration of this especially industrious era, the complex fellowship of the church was envisaged and described in different ways. It was not determined rigidly or dogmatically. Partly this is because the exercise touched upon a fundamental mystery of faith, a perpetual truth relating to the conception of the church as a whole, which is a body whose nature is revealed in compound images and personifications. As Bede describes it, the mysteries of the church and of Christ ‘are brought to mind in many ways and by many figures, but when they are repeated they always bring forth something new, which either enables one to grasp the content of these mysteries or, through its very newness, brings delight to the souls of those who 1 Although the English word church can refer to both the building and its people, it will be used here to translate the Latin ecclesia, derived from Greek ekklesia (‘assembly’), which has a broader semantic scope. Significantly it may refer both to the assembled community and to the process of assembling. In the nineteenth century a distinction was sometimes made between a church and a cathedral, but this definition has mainly fallen out of use.

  • ASPECTS of Tile MONASTIC PATRONAGE of Tile ENGLISH
    ASPECTS OF TIlE MONASTIC PATRONAGE OF TIlE ENGLISH AND FRENCH ROYAL HOUSES, c. 1130-1270 by Elizabeth M. Hallani VC i% % Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, in History presented at the University of London. 1976. / •1 ii SUMMARY This study takes as its theme the relationship of the English and French kings and the religious orders, £.1130-1270, Patronage in general is a field relatively neglected in the rich literature on the monastic life, and royal patronage has never before been traced over a broad period for both France and England. The chief concern here is with royal favour shown towards the various orders of monks and friars, in the foundations and donations made by the kings. This is put in the context of monastic patronage set in a wider field, and of the charters and pensions which are part of its formaL expression. The monastic foundations and the general pattern of royal donations to different orders are discussed in some detail in the core of the work; the material is divided roughly according to the reigns of the kings. Evidence from chronicles and the physical remains of buildings is drawn upon as well as collections of charters and royal financial documents. The personalities and attitudes of the monarchs towards the religious hierarchy, the way in which monastic patronage reflects their political interests, and the contrasts between English and French patterns of patronage are all analysed, and the development of the royal monastic mausoleum in Western Europe is discussed as a special case of monastic patronage. A comparison is attempted of royal and non-royal foundations based on a statistical analysis.

  • Stages of Papal Law
    Journal of the British Academy, 5, 37–59. DOI https://doi.org/10.5871/jba/005.037 Posted 00 March 2017. © The British Academy 2017 Stages of papal law Raleigh Lecture on History read 1 November 2016 DAVID L. D’AVRAY Fellow of the British Academy Abstract: Papal law is known from the late 4th century (Siricius). There was demand for decretals and they were collected in private collections from the 5th century on. Charlemagne’s Admonitio generalis made papal legislation even better known and the Pseudo-Isidorian collections brought genuine decretals also to the wide audience that these partly forged collections reached. The papal reforms from the 11th century on gave rise to a new burst of papal decretals, and collections of them, culminating in the Liber Extra of 1234. The Council of Trent opened a new phase. The ‘Congregation of the Council’, set up to apply Trent’s non-dogmatic decrees, became a new source of papal law. Finally, in 1917, nearly a millennium and a half of papal law was codified by Cardinal Gasparri within two covers. Papal law was to a great extent ‘demand- driven’, which requires explanation. The theory proposed here is that Catholic Christianity was composed of a multitude of subsystems, not planned centrally and each with an evolving life of its own. Subsystems frequently interfered with the life of other subsystems, creating new entanglements. This constantly renewed complexity had the function (though not the purpose) of creating and recreating demand for papal law to sort out the entanglements between subsystems. For various reasons other religious systems have not generated the same demand: because the state plays a ‘papal’ role, or because the units are small, discrete and simple, or thanks to a clear simple blueprint, or because of conservatism combined with a tolerance of some inconsistency.

  • Parish of Skipton*
    294 HISTORY OF CRAVEN. PARISH OF SKIPTON* HAVE reserved for this parish, the most interesting part of my subject, a place in Wharfdale, in order to deduce the honour and fee of Skipton from Bolton, to which it originally belonged. In the later Saxon times Bodeltone, or Botltunef (the town of the principal mansion), was the property of Earl Edwin, whose large possessions in the North were among the last estates in the kingdom which, after the Conquest, were permitted to remain in the hands of their former owners. This nobleman was son of Leofwine, and brother of Leofric, Earls of Mercia.J It is somewhat remarkable that after the forfeiture the posterity of this family, in the second generation, became possessed of these estates again by the marriage of William de Meschines with Cecilia de Romille. This will be proved by the following table:— •——————————;——————————iLeofwine Earl of Mercia§=j=......... Leofric §=Godiva Norman. Edwin, the Edwinus Comes of Ermenilda=Ricardus de Abrineis cognom.

But it was before the Domesday Survey that this nobleman had incurred the forfeiture; and his lands in Craven are accordingly surveyed under the head of TERRA REGIS. All these, consisting of LXXVII carucates, lay waste, having never recovered from the Danish ravages.

  • On the Integrity of Confession As Prolegomena for Luther and Trent
    Theological Studies 54(1993) THE SUMMAE CONFESSORUM ON THE INTEGRITY OF CONFESSION AS PROLEGOMENA FOR LUTHER AND TRENT KiLiAN MCDONNELL, O.S.B. Institute for Ecumenical and Cultural Research, Collegeville, Minn. TT ΤΠΉ THE EXCEPTION of satisfaction, no Reformation issue concern- W ing the sacrament of penance was so hotly debated as integrity of confession, the requirement that one must make a complete confes­ sion. In part, the heated discussion was related to the role integrity played in Catholic penitential life. Speaking of the Catholic practice just prior to the Reformation, T. N. Tentler contends that 'to exagger­ ate the importance of completeness seems hardly possible."1 The Fourth Lateran Council (1215) gives the classical formulation: the faithful "must confess all their sins ... to their own priest at least once a year."2 The Protestant historian of penance, H. C. Lea, calls this "the most important legislative act in the history of the Church,"3 partly because a legislated confession is not free. The Council of Flor­ ence (1438-45) modified the Lateran decree; integrity is defined as "all the sins one remembers."4 Luther objects that even this is an impossible task, like "counting the sands," endlessly numbering and weighing sins, detailing their circumstances, thus leading to torments of conscience, ending in de­ spair.5 Though Luther himself retains the catalogue of sins as an aid to the examination of conscience,6 as does Melanchthon,7 both cite Psalm 19:13: "Who knows how often one sins?"8 No command exists for 1 Sin and Confession on the Eue of the Reformation (Princeton, Ν J.: Princeton Univ., 1977) 109.
