The Hussite Wars [1420 -1436]
Decline in the Medieval Church Popes Internal Church Power § Innocent III- Papal monarchy established by Pope Innocent III strengthened the church politically, but weakened it spiritually— undermined popular support § Boniface VIII § The Avignon Papacy [1309 -1377] Church Councils [Conciliarism] § Pisa § Constance § Basel
Boniface VIII (r. 1294– 1303) vs. Philip the Fair (r. 1285– 1314) • French & English kings raise taxes on clergy; Boniface decrees new taxes need papal consent • French king Philip the Fair cuts off flow of money to Rome; Boniface concedes • Boniface issues Unam Sanctam (1302), as confrontation with Philip ramps up, asserting subordination of temporal to spiritual power • French army assault & molest Boniface, who later dies • Result: popes never again seriously threaten European rulers
The Avignon Papacy • Pope Clement V moves papal court here to escape strife of Rome • To get needed revenue, papal taxes go up, and sale of indulgences begins • Pope John XXII (r. 1316– 1334)—most powerful Avignon pope • In 1377 Pope Gregory DIED while in Rome, Italians, afraid the French would appoint a new pope, so they surrounded the church and demanded an Italian be named- the scared Cardinals obeyed.
The Avignon Papal Complex
The Great Schism • Urban VI and Clement VII—rival popes; England & allies support Urban, France & allies support Clement • Conciliar Theory: idea that a representative council could regulate actions of pope- Popes didn’t like the idea that their authority was second to a council • Council of Pisa (1409– 1410): deposed Urban & Clement (who refused to step down), elected Alexander V—three contending popes • Council of Constance (1414– 1417): provided for regular councils every few years • Council of Basel (1431– 1449): height of conciliar government of church; negotiated directly with heretics (Hussites) • Results of conciliar movement: greater religious responsibility to laity & secular governments
The Great Schism: 1378 -1417

Decline in the Medieval Church FAITH [Scholasticism] § Peter Abelard [Sic et Non] § Thomas Aquinas [Summa Theologica] § Balance between faith and reason disintegrated in the 13 th century. Intellectual Inquiry REASON [Roger Bacon & William of Ockham] • Responsible for the new intellectual climate in Europe. • Dedicated Franciscan. • Believed in extreme poverty, that power to rule didn’t come from pope but from people, • Gov’t should be entirely secular • denied pope’s absolute authority in spiritual matters too. • Developed nominalism- denies that human reason can aspire to certain truth • Died of the plague but his ideas lived on, esp the Church being governed by a council
