The Church And The Empire is a historical book written by D. J. Medley that explores the relationship between the Christian Church and the Roman Empire during the period of the fourth and fifth centuries. The book delves into the political and religious dynamics of the time, discussing the role of the Church in shaping the empire and vice versa. Medley examines the rise of Christianity as a dominant force in the empire and how it affected political power and social structures. The book also explores the various controversies and conflicts that arose between the Church and the empire, such as the Arian heresy and the Council of Nicaea. Ultimately, The Church And The Empire offers a comprehensive and insightful analysis of a crucial period in the history of Christianity and the Roman Empire.Hadrian IV is interesting to us as the only Englishman who has ever sat upon the throne of St. Peter. As Nicholas Brakespeare he had led the life of a wandering scholar, chiefly in France. He entered the house of Canons Regular of St. Rufus near Avignon, and when Abbot of this monastery attracted the attention of Eugenius III, who made him Cardinal Bishop of Albano, and employed him as papal legate in freeing the Church in Scandinavia from its dependence on the Bishops in Germany. The prestige which he acquired in this work marked him out as the successor of the shortlived Anastasius.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
