The thirteenth century was a crucial period of reform in the
English church, during which the church's renewal initiatives
transformed the laity. The vibrant lay religious culture of
late-medieval England cannot be understood without considering the
re-invigorated pastoral care that developed between 1200 and 1300.
Even before Innocent III called the Fourth Lateran Council of 1215,
reform-minded bishops and scholars were focusing attention on the
local church, emphasising better preaching and more frequent
confession. This study examines the processes by which these
clerical reforms moulded the lay religiosity of the thirteenth
century, integrating the different aspects of church life, so often
studied separately, and combining a broad investigation of the
subject with a series of comparative case studies. William H.
Campbell also demonstrates how differences abounded from diocese to
diocese, town to country and parish to parish, shaping the
landscape of pastoral care as a complex mosaic of lived religion.
