MEDIEVAL WORLDS provides a new forum for interdisciplinary and transcultural studies of the Middle Ages. Specifically it encourages and links comparative research between different regions and fields and promotes methodological innovation in transdisciplinary studies. Focusing on the Middle Ages (c. 400-1500 CE, but can be extended whenever thematically fruitful or appropriate), MEDIEVAL WORLDS takes a global approach to studying history in a comparative setting.
MEDIEVAL WORLDS is open to regular submissions on comparative topics, but also offers the possibility to propose or advertise subjects that lend themselves to comparison. With a view to connecting people working on related topics in different academic environments, we publish calls for matching articles and for contributions on particular issues.

Abstract:
This paper examines the normative character of monastic exemption in the Latin West, that is to say, the negotiated interaction between monasteries and bishops. In tracing the formation and development of exemption privileges between the fifth and ninth centuries, it argues for an emerging pattern under the Franks that proved central to developing notions of spiritual and physical protection. As a consequence of this novel mentality, a monastery’s relationship with its surrounding environment became characterised by greater degrees of freedom and protection than ever before. This unique transformation took time to develop, however, forging alliances that effectively shifted individual monasteries away from their Frankish protectorate towards the spiritual centre in Rome. The consequences of this landmark shift, it is argued, benefited the early medieval papacy in its burgeoning claims of centralized power and legitimacy.
