Description
The Medieval Church: A Brief History by Joseph H. Lynch and Phillip C. Adamo explores the pervasive role of the Church in medieval Europe, examining how it influenced every aspect of life. The book delves into the institution's attempts to control medieval people's lives through canon law, while also being shaped by popular movements like the friars and heresy. This updated edition features a new introductory chapter on the basics of Christianity and expanded material on key figures, including women's roles in the medieval church.
