[edit] ENGLISH CHURCH, 940-1154
The history of the Church in England between the early 10th century and the middle of the 12th century forms a definable unit of study. In this text, Henry Loyn brings to bear all his formidable range of knowledge on this important topic.
The Church was absolutely central to medieval, and especially early medieval, life, and this rich account of its history and development in a turbulent age covers a vast range of subjects in addion to the spiritual dimension. Surveying the late Anglo-Saxon period through the Norman Conquest and right across the Anglo-Norman period, Professor Loyn addresses the major themes in medieval history. He begins with the pre-1066 period looking at the great Benedictine monastic revival; he looks at the role of the Church in the Conquest itself; the evidence of the Domesday Book and then considers the activities of the Church in the turbulent years of the Conqueror's successors. The book concludes with a discussion of doctrine, belief and ritual.
