Starting with an examination of the episcopal succession and the relations between bishops and the cathedral community, the volume moves on to consider the development of the church of Worcester's landed estate, its extent and its organisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese are analysed in connection with the very significant measures taken in the eleventh century to preserve—and sometimes manipulate—the memory of past land transactions. Of paramount importance among such measures was the production of two cartularies: \u003cem\u003eLiber Wigorniensis\u003c\/em\u003e and Hemming's cartulary, respectively compiled at the beginning and at the very end of the eleventh century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLast but not least, the volume considers ecclesiastical organisation and pastoral care in the diocese of Worcester by looking at the relations between the cathedral church and the other churches in the diocese. Special attention is given to the payment of church dues and to such aspects of pastoral care as preaching, penance, and visitation of the sick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to the combined analysis of these areas, \u003cem\u003eSustaining Belief\u003c\/em\u003e offers a detailed picture of the main occupations (and preoccupations) of the late Anglo-Saxon church of Worcester in its interaction with society at large: from its tenants to its faithful, from the clergy in its diocese to its opponents in land disputes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47607856365804,"sku":"9780754609025","price":353.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780754609025-sustaining-belief.jpg?v=1778176030"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/francesca-tinti.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
