This book examines the history of monastic exemption in France. It
reveals an institutional story of monastic freedom and protection,
deeply rooted in the religious, political, social and legal culture
of the early Middle Ages. Traversing many geo-political boundaries
and fields of historical specialisation, the book defines the
meaning and value of exemption to French monasteries between the
sixth and eleventh centuries. It demonstrates how enduring
relationships with the apostolic see in Rome ultimately contributed
to an emerging identity of papal authority, the growth of early
monasticism, Frankish politics and governance, church reform and
canon law. -- .
