A Companion to Priesthood and Holy Orders in the Middle Ages
Brill (Verlag)
978-90-04-23673-8 (ISBN)
In A Companion to Priesthood and Holy Orders in the Middle Ages, a select group of scholars explain the rise and function of priests and deacons in the Middle Ages. Though priests were sometimes viewed through the lens of function, the medieval priesthood was also defined ontologically–those marked by God who performed the sacraments and confected the Eucharist.
While their role grew in importance, medieval priests continued to fulfil the role of preacher, confessor and provider of pastoral care. As the concept of ordination changed theologically the practices and status of bishops, priests and deacons continued to be refined, with many of these medieval discussions continuing to the present day.
Greg Peters, Ph.D. (2003), University of St. Michael’s College, is Associate Professor of Medieval and Spiritual Theology at Biola University. He has authored Peter of Damascus: Byzantine Monk and Spiritual Theologian (PIMS, 2011) and The Story of Monasticism (Baker, 2015). C. Colt Anderson, Ph.D. (1998), Marquette University, is Dean of Graduate School of Religion of Religious Education at Fordham University. He is the author of Christian Eloquence: Contemporary Doctrinal Preaching (Hillenbrand, 2005) and The Great Catholic Reformers (Paulist, 2007).
