HIST 301A: Medieval Kingship
3.00 Credits
Catholic University of America
Despite the modern belief in the universal efficacy of democracy, a strong case could be made that0looking at the world over the entire course of recorded history-a much more "natural" form of government is monarchy. This course will examine the phenomenon of Western medieval monarchy and, specifically, the construction of kingship in that tradition, focusing not only on medieval ideas about kings, but also on practical aspects of rulership in the premodern age. In additional to background discussions of the anthropology of kingship, and of Roman, Biblical, and Germanic ideas about kings, the main topics of discussions will include: kings and conversion, Carolingian kingship, kings as patrons of the arts and learning, feudal monarchy, sacral kingship, kings as lawgivers and dispensers of justice, kings as conquerors, kings as defenders of the church, household and state government, and medieval queenship. Format: Lecture and discussion. Evaluation: midterm, final and two analytical papers.
