From the crumbling walls of the ancient authority of Rome, two new powers, the Church and western leaders, established their hold on the medieval world. Ushering in an age of population boom, business, and an interest in antiquity, the Church and fledgling powers of the west struggled to find their footing in society. Some cities, such as Rome, survived the change by adapting, and others faded into nothing more than a memory. Cities, empires, and the Church all played a pivotal roles in the…
The Fourth Lateran Council, as called by Pope Innocent III (1198-1216), was conducted on April 19, 1215. This council is sometimes referred to as the “Great Council” as over nine-hundred abbots and over four-hundred bishops attended the event at the Lateran palace in Rome. Some of these clergy men were “coming from as far afield as the Latin empire of Constantinople and crusader-held territories in the Levant (MP p. 139)” due to the importance of the event. The council, or synod as it sometimes…
CONCLUSION No state follows a straight forward path of development from traditionalism to modernity, cleavages and conflicts are part of every society, any society cannot find release from them, and like happiness and grief are the assets of every human life. An autonomous/self-governing aristocracy does not readily abandon its vantages to a centralizing monarchy, nor does landed nobility greet the growth of a middle class whose new wealth derives from trade, investment, banking, commerce or…
Introduction A century ago, at the beginning of the Great War, which Pope Benedict XV termed a “pointless slaughter,” another notable American was born: the Cistercian monk Thomas Merton.

He was also a man of dialogue, a promoter of peace between peoples and religions. The…
Most people are familiar with famous proverb “like father like son” but I would like to take this a step further and examine the differences between a great-grandfather and a great-grandson. That is, in context of 11th and 12th Century England and the reigns of William I and Henry II of course. More specifically, the differences in kingdoms governed by the two. On October 16th 1066, William Duke of Normandy set sail for England, and soon enough was crowned King of England. Over a century later,…
their first placement as a final year student and as a result, had very limited prior clinical placement experience. While “there are mixed views in the literature regarding the preferred type of supervision” on clinical placement (Spence et al. 2001; Abbot at al. 2006; Clough 2003), I opted for the one-to-one model of supervision for this student. As stated by Hendersen et al. (2006) the one-to-one model of supervision is most suited for students having limited clinical…

I lay awake, unmoving and listening to the sounds of birds stirring outside. It was too early for them to begin their song yet, with the sky still pitch black. The colours of my dreams were too bright, the birdsong too vivid, I could not remain asleep. I had spent the night tossing and turning, trying to fumble my way into unconsciousness; I could not. I had slept for the last time a maiden; my wedding day promised that I would wake tomorrow as a married woman should. The thought did not…
