Title: England and the Avignon popes
First published: 2005
Description: "England had a complex relationship with the papacy in the 14th century, but how was the dialogue between these two protagonists carried out? Drawing on a wide range of unpublished sources, Karsten Ploger explores the techniques of communication employed by the Crown in its dealings with Clement VI (1342-52) and Innocent VI (1352-62). Methodologies of social and cultural history and theories of international relations are brought to bear on the analysis of the dialogue between Westminster and Avignon, resulting in a more complete picture of 14th-century Anglo-papal relations in particular and of medieval diplomatic practice in general."--Jacket.
