Law and Theology in the Middle Ages examines the tension between ecclesiastical and secular authority in medieval Europe by focusing upon the differences between legal and theological responses to concepts such as justice, mercy, fairness and sin. Central themes, the fundamental differences between virtue and keeping the peace, sin and breaking the law, are used to illustrate a wide range of practical and theoretical areas of dispute in a clear and accessible way. A unique introduction to a fascinating subject, Law and Theology in the Middle Ages is a thought provoking exploration of the relationship between academic study of law and theology in the Middle Ages.
