In medieval Europe, the death of a king could not only cause a dispute about the succession, but also a severe crisis. In times of a vacant throne particular responsibility fell to the bishops - whose general importance for the time around the first milennium has been revealed by recent scholarship - as royal counsellors and policy makers. This volume therefore concentrates on the bishops' room for manoeuvre and the patterns of episcopal power, focusing on the Eastern Frankish Reich and Anglo-Saxon England in a comparative approach which is not least based upon the research of a renowned medievalist, Timothy Reuter. His article about "A Europe of Bishops" ("Ein Europa der Bischöouml;fe") is presented in English translation for the first time.

His article about 'A Europe of Bishops' ('Ein Europa der Bischöfe') is presented in English translation for the first time.; Der Tod eines Königs konnte im mittelalterlichen Europa nicht nur einen Streit um die Nachfolge entfachen, sondern weitreichende Krisen zur Folge haben. In diesen Zeiten der Thronvakanz fiel den Bischöfen, deren generelle Bedeutung um die erste Jahrtausendwende von der aktuellen Forschung hervorgehoben wird, als Ratgebern am Königshof und als Entscheidungsträgern eine wichtige Verantwortung zu. In den Beiträgen dieses Bandes werden deshalb der Handlungsspielraum der Bischöfe und die Strukturen bischöflicher Herrschaftsgewalt analysiert, und zwar erstmals in einer das ostfränkische Reich und das angelsächsische England vergleichenden Perspektive, die nicht zuletzt auf den Forschungen des renommierten Mediävisten Timothy Reuter aufbaut. Dessen Aufsatz 'Ein Europa der Bischöfe' wird erstmals in englischer Übersetzung vorgelegt. 228 pp. Englisch. Seller Inventory # 9783110262025
