The Power of Protocol

Diplomatics and the Dynamics of Papal Government, c. 400 - c.1600

How did the papacy govern European religious life without a proper bureaucracy and the normal resources of a state? The Power of Protocol explores how the demand for papal services was met and examines the genesis and structure of papal documents from the Roman empire to after the Council of Trent in the sixteenth century.
