The pontificate of Innocent II (1130-1143) has long been recognized
as a watershed in the history of the papacy, marking the transition
from the age of reform to the so-called papal monarchy, when an
earlier generation of idealistic reformers gave way to hard-headed
pragmatists intent on securing worldly power for the Church. Whilst
such a conception may be a cliche its effect has been to
concentrate scholarship more on the schism of 1130 and its effects
than on Innocent II himself. This volume puts Innocent at the
centre, bringing together the authorities in the field to give an
overarching view of his pontificate, which was very important in
terms of the internationalization of the papacy, the internal
development of the Roman Curia, the integrity of the papal state
and the governance of the local church, as well as vital to the
development of the Kingdom of Sicily and the Empire.
