First published in 2007, this was the first significant study of
the incorporation of the Church in southern Italy into the
mainstream of Latin Christianity during the eleventh and twelfth
centuries. Professor G. A. Loud examines the relationship between
Norman rulers, south Italian churchmen and the external influence
of the new 'papal monarchy'. He discusses the impact of the
creation of the new kingdom of Sicily in 1130; the tensions that
arose from the papal schism of that era; and the religious policy
and patronage of the new monarchs. He also explores the internal
structures of the Church, both secular and monastic, and the extent
and process of Latinisation within the Graecophone areas of the
mainland and on the island of Sicily, where at the time of the
Norman conquest the majority of the population was Muslim. This is
a major contribution to the political, religious and cultural
history of the Central Middle Ages.
