medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Apologies for this afterthought,
but I should also have raised the issue of suspension from
office (as opposed to downright deposition).
Meg
Learned ones,
I´m trying to find out about both theoretical (canon law)
and real life material pertaining to the deposition of bishops
(12th - 13th centuries). Who is allowed to do so (the appropriate archbishop? the pope?) and on what
grounds? Gross incompetence would presumably be one, but what about
blindness, or other ailments preventing the bishop performing his
office?
Thanks in advance,
Meg
