The Republic of St. Peter: The Birth of the Papal State, 680-825 (The Middle Ages Series) by Thomas F. X. Noble
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 21.6 MB
Overview: The Republic of St. Peter seeks to reclaim for central Italy an important part of its own history. Noble’s thesis is at once original and controversial: that the Republic, an independent political entity, was in existence by the 730s and was not a creation of the Franks in the 750s.

Noble examines the political, economic, and religious problems that impelled the central Italians—and a succession of resolute popes—to seek emancipation from the Byzantine Empire. He delineates the social structures and historical traditions that produced a distinctive political society, describes the complete governmental apparatus of the Republic, and provides a comprehensive assessment of the Franco-papal alliance.
