SETTING THE STAGE The gradual decline of the Roman Empire ushered in an era of European history called the Middle Ages, or the medieval period. It spanned from around 500 to 1500. During these centuries, new institutions slowly emerged to replace those of the fallen Roman Empire. Unified civilizations flourished in China and Southwest Asia. Medieval Europe, though, remained fragmented. Invasions Trigger Changes in Western Europe By the end of the fifth century, invaders from many different Germanic groups over- ran the western half of the Roman Empire. Repeated invasions and constant warfare sparked new trends. A series of changes altered government, economy, and culture: • Disruption of Trade Merchants faced invasions from both land and sea. Their businesses collapsed. Population of Three Roman Cities The breakdown of trade destroyed Europe’s cities as economic centers. Money became scarce. 350 • Downfall of Cities With the fall of the Roman 300 Empire, cities were abandoned as centers of administration. 250 • Population Shifts As Roman centers of trade and THINK THROUGH HISTORY 200 A.

European Middle Ages 317 317-321-0313s1 10/11/02 3:58 PM Page 318 Germanic Kingdoms Emerge In the years of upheaval between 400 and 600, small Germanic kingdoms replaced Roman provinces. The borders of those kingdoms changed constantly with the for- tunes of war. The Church was an institution that survived the fall of the Roman Empire. During this time of political chaos, the Church provided order and security. The Concept of Government Changes Along with shifting boundaries, the entire concept of government changed. Loyalty to public government and written law had unified Roman society. Family ties and personal loyalty, rather than citizenship in a public state, bound Germanic society together. Unlike the Romans, Germanic peoples lived in small communities. These were governed by unwritten rules and traditions. Every Germanic chief led a band of warriors who had pledged their loyalty to him. In peacetime, these followers lived in their lord’s hall. He gave them food, weapons, and treasure. In battle, warriors fought to the death at their lord’s side. They consid- ered it a disgrace to outlive him. Germanic warriors willingly died for a leader they respected. Yet they felt no obli- gation to obey a king they didn’t even know. Nor would they obey an official sent to collect taxes or administer justice in the name of an emperor they had never met. The Germanic stress on personal ties made it impossible to establish orderly government for large territories. In the Roman province of Gaul, a Germanic people called the Franks held power. Their leader, Clovis (KLOH•vihs), would eventually bring Christianity to this region. The Franks Under Clovis Clovis’s wife, Clothilde, urged him to convert to her faith. She believed in a traditional form of Christianity. In 496 Clovis led his warriors into battle against another Germanic army. Fearing defeat, Clovis appealed to the Christian God. “For I have called on my gods,” he prayed, “but I find they are far from my aid . Now I call on Thee. I long to believe in Thee. Only, please deliver me from my enemies.” The tide of the battle shifted and the Franks triumphed. Afterward, Clovis and 3,000 of his warriors asked a bishop to baptize them. The Church in Rome welcomed Clovis’s con- version and supported his military campaigns against other Germanic peoples. By 511, Clovis had united the Franks into one kingdom. The strategic alliance between Clovis’s Frankish king- dom and the Church marked the beginning of a special partnership between two powerful forces. This ivory carving shows Clovis’s conversion to Germanic Peoples Adopt Christianity Christianity in 496. Politics played a key role in spreading Christianity. By 600, the Church, with the help A bishop baptizes him as his wife, of Frankish rulers, had converted many Germanic peoples.

It continues to show how King Edward III added the French Royal Arms, consequent to his claim to the French throne. There is then the change from “France Ancient” to “France Modern” by King Henry IV in 1405, which set the pattern of the arms and the standard for the next 198 years. The story then proceeds to show how, over the ensuing 234 years, there were no fewer than six versions of the standard until the adoption of the present pattern in 1837. The presentation includes pictures of all the designs, noting that, in the early stages, the arms appeared more often as a surcoat than a flag. There is also some anecdotal information regarding the various patterns.

Since the demise of the Order has recently received a great deal of attention in both historical scholarship and popular culture, I analyze and critique numerous theories concerning the trial of the Templars and contextualize it by revealing the causes for the Order’s creation. I use an array of primary and secondary sources to explain why each event occurred despite being unpopular with a significant portion of Christian officials. I ultimately contend that most of the aforementioned theories are insufficient to explain the rise and fall of the Order because they fail to grasp the complexity of each event. The Templars’ creation resulted from a lengthy theological justification for a unique form of Christian holy war, papal ambitions, and a palpable ethos of fear and violence within Christendom that was redirected against an external enemy.

SETTING THE STAGE At the turn of the century between the 1200s and 1300s, church and state seemed in good shape, but trouble was brewing. The Church seemed to be thriving. Ideals of fuller political representation seemed to be developing in France and England. However, the 1300s were filled with disasters, both natural and manmade. By the end of the century, the medieval way of life was beginning to disappear. A Church Divided At the beginning of the 1300s, the papacy seemed in some ways still strong. Soon, however, both pope and Church were in desperate trouble. Pope and King Collide The pope in 1300 was an able but stubborn Italian. Pope Boniface VIII attempted to enforce papal authority on kings as previous popes had. When King Philip IV of France asserted his authority over French bishops, Boniface responded with a papal bull (an official document issued by the pope). It stated, “We declare, state, and define that subjection to the Roman Vocabulary Pontiff is absolutely necessary for the salvation of every Pontiff: the pope. human creature.” In short, kings must always obey popes.

    The Babylonian Captivity of the Popes: Lessons for the 21st Century Church Leaders Chinedu E. Nnatuanya Abstract Since the death and resurrection of Christ, the church has been a focal point in the history and development of the human race. Church as an institution has been a determinant factor in the socio-economic, politico-cultural and religious segments of the society. As a great player, its success has been the success of the society and its failure the failure of humanity. However, this institution has affected the society positively and negatively through her various stages it has passed since inception. Nevertheless, looking at the present church characterized with politics of rancor, struggle for power, excesses and abuses, intolerance, corruption, divide and rule, ethnicity, favoritism among others, it seemed as if to say that the church has not learnt from her passed. The captivity of the popes has a great volume of lesson for present leaders in a view to have rethink. Therefore, this work ventures at investigating why this captivity in order to prevent such event in this present time. Introduction Since the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the church has metamorphosed into series of stages. It has been persecuted more than any other institution yet has survived. In each period the church came out not being the same. However, between 1305-1416 the church passed through prolonged period of crises during which it seems that the church is doomed to destruction. It found its authority undermined, openly challenged and divided among rivals. Although, at the end, it emerged with its authority, yet the struggle for supremacy brought about significant changes to the structure of the church and sowed the seed that germinated during the reformation era.

McNicholas Pledged: P. D. Handyside Approved: E. Kurlander, Faculty Advisor M. Venzke, Chair, History Senior Research Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for HY 499 Stetson University 6th December, 2005 Abstract Created around 1230 CE, the Poor Knights of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon were created in order to protect pilgrims on their journey through the new Christian kingdom in Palestine. Starting out as a small group, these warrior monks soon grew in power and prestige under the benefaction of St. Bernard and were charged with the protection of the Catholic Church by Pope Innocent II. Along with this favour bestowed upon them, the Templars quickly accumulated a great amount of wealth and territory across Europe. However, their power base was always in the Holy Land. The capture by Muslims of the city of Acre, the final Christian stronghold in Palestine, deprived them of this power base. Following this they were free to the predations of ambitious secular rulers, such as Philip IV of France. Philip, anxious to establish his authority and to acquire more revenue producing lands, was able to bring charges against the Templars accusing them of heresy which led to the eventual arrest and disbandment of the Knights Templar. The loss of their power base left the Templars vulnerable to condemnation by the society at large and, as such, they were unable to protect themselves, or be protected by others, when they came under threat.

  • Of the Popes in Avignon, Pope Boniface VIII Issued Two Papal Bulls Repudiating the Claims of King Philip IV of France: Ausculta Fili in 1301 and Unam Sanctam in 1302
    OCKHAM ON THE PAPACY Matthew Levering Shortly before the “Babylonian Captivity” of the popes in Avignon, Pope Boniface VIII issued two papal bulls repudiating the claims of King Philip IV of France: Ausculta Fili in 1301 and Unam Sanctam in 1302. The latter bull, which particularly outraged Dante and numer- ous others, taught that the papacy possessed supreme authority over both the ecclesial and the temporal spheres. Over the next few decades, prominent theologians involved in debate about papal authority included James of Viterbo, Giles of Rome, and Augustinus Triumphus on the “hierocratic” side, and John of Paris, Marsilius of Padua, and William of Ockham on the “anti-hierocratic” side. For Ockham, troubles began in the 1320s. Having traveled to the papal court in Avignon to defend the theological orthodoxy of certain of his philosophical theses, Ockham came to the view that Pope John XXII’s teachings on apostolic poverty were heretical. Most impor- tantly, John XXII had “declared it heretical to deny that Christ and the apostles had had rights of ownership in the things they used”.1 Excom- municated in 1328 by Pope John XXII, Ockham wrote a number of works between 1332 and his death in 1347 addressing the question of papal power and “papal heresy”.2 1 A.

  • Church History #4: Union of Church & State – Revival of Imperialism and Latin-Teutonic Christianity
    Bethel School of Discipleship Church History #4: Union of Church & State – Revival of Imperialism and Latin-Teutonic Christianity After the fall of the Roman Empire to the Barbarians the church was faced with holding together society and preserving culture. The bishop of Rome now held both temporal and spiritual power. Monasteries became the means of preserving culture and education. 1. Origins Monasticism began in Egypt, when in 270 Anthony of Thebes sold all his possessions, gave the money to the poor, and withdrew to a cave to take up a life of meditation. His life of holiness gave him a reputation and others went to live near him in numerous caves. Many followed his example and monasticism soon spread rapidly from Egypt over the entire East. 2. Rule of Benedict Benedict shocked by the vice of Rome retired to live as a hermit in the mountains east of Rome. In 529 he founded the monastery of Monte Casino, which lasted till WW2. He developed a plan of organization, work, and worship – his Rule. This Rule emphasized poverty, chastity, work, and obedience. It became the universal standard for the Middle Ages. 3. Contributions Monasticism, in its purest form, was a testimony against the immorality of the cities. The contributions made by the monk still affect society today. It was a source of hospitality to the traveler, healing to the sick, education to the masses, refuge for the outcast of society, and advancement in agriculture. Monasteries helped to keep scholarship alive during the Dark Ages. Monks preserved for posterity literature & culture by collecting, translating, and copying precious manuscripts.

  • REVIEWS Sophia Menache, Clement V
    REVIEWS Sophia Menache, Clement V (New York: Cambridge University Press 1998) xiv +351 pp. In Clement V, Sophia Menache tries to rehabilitate the reputation of Pope Clement V (r. 1305–1314), the first of a string of fourteenth century popes who governed the church from southern France instead of Rome. The assessment that historians have traditionally given Clement dismisses him as a weak pope, unable to stand up to King Philip IV of France, who used church offices for the advancement of his family and who dragged the church into the “Babylonian Captivity.” Drawing on a staggering bibliography of primary and secondary sources, Menache argues that Clement was actually a modernizing pope who guided the church through the crucial period of the infancy of European nation- states and succeeded in protecting ecclesiastical prerogatives at a point when bargaining with kings and clergy was becoming increasingly painful. In this way her work does not break any new ground in the historiography of the fourteenth century, but instead follows the work of Yves Renouard and Guillaume Mollat, who have argued that the Avignon papacy, far from being a period of corruption and decline for the church that heralded the Protestant Reformation, was in reality a positive and necessary stage in the modernization of the Roman Church. Clement was elevated to the papal See at a difficult time for the papacy. His predecessor, Boniface VIII, had come out on the losing end of a contest for power against Philip IV of France, during which Philip had sent his henchmen to Italy to arrest him for heresy.

  • Unit 18: Europe in the Late Middle Ages
    The Artios Home Companion Series Unit 18: Europe in the Late Middle Ages Teacher Overview THE HUNDRED Years’ War developed from a question: who should rule the kingdom of France? After the Norman Conquest of England, the kings of England were all vassals of the King of France for the lands they owned in France. The French tried over many years to expel the English and regain control of these lands. So, when one of the English kings, Edward III, made a claim that he should be King of France, rivals in France vehemently disputed his claim. Meanwhile, the individual countries within the Holy Roman Empire were realizing they were capable of governing themselves apart from the Church. Conflicts between the Emperor and the Pope divided the people into factions, some of which supported the Pope and others which supported the Emperor. Nations on either side of this conflict allied themselves either for or against France in her conflict with England, and the first international war erupted, which devastated Europe for more than a hundred years. Battle of Bouvines, by Horace Vernet Reading and Assignments In this unit, students will: Complete two lessons in which they will learn about the Holy Roman Empire, strife with the popes, commercial progress, the captivity of the popes, and the start of the Hundred Years’ War, journaling and answering discussion questions as they read.
