medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Dear Carolin I wrote an unpublished doctoral dissertation (Oxford, 1984) on the relations of the papacy with the religious orders in England in the first half of the fourteenth century. While this won't be of much use for your purposes (bits of it are in print as articles but are probably too specialised for your undergraduate audience), I would recommend the relevant chapter in ADM Barrell, `The Papacy, Scotland and Nothern England, 1324-1378' (Cambridge, 1995) and the articles he cites by Robin Storey and AH Sweet. The essays in CH Lawrence (ed.), `The English Church and the Papacy in the Middle Ages' (London, 1965)have useful material (esp. on the C14 by Pantin). On relations with the episcopate, the chapter on visitations in vol II of Knowles, `The Religious Orders in England', is still good. The introductory sections of A Hamilton Thompson's volumes of documents on episcopal visitation of religios houses published by the Lincolnshire Record Society are invaluable, but probably too technical for first-year undergraduates. I have been working as a civil servant for some years and don't have as much opportunity as I would like to keep up with current research, so others may have more currecnt material to point out on the episcopate and the C15 in particular. I hope this is useful nonetheless.
