Description
The diocese of Lincoln was not only the largest in England -- spread over eight counties -- but an ongoing focal point of ecclesiastical change in administrative, spiritual, and political development in the country. This session will trace some of these developments across three hundred years in the diocese, bringing together scholars from North America and the UK, under the auspices of both Episcopus and The Bishop's Eye, a UK research network based at the Universities of Huddersfield and Lincoln devoted to the medieval diocese of Lincoln and the relationship of masculinity and religion. Participation by members of The Bishop's Eye research group is expected. The session will encourage papers which not only focus on particular clergy and clerical communities, but also situate them in broader political, cultural, gendered, and/or economic contexts.
