| Synopsis: |
Pastoral Care, the religious mission of the Church to minister to the laity and care for their spiritual welfare, has been a subject of growing interest in medieval studies. The present volume differs from and builds upon previous publications in a number of important respects. First, it covers not just one part of the medieval period, but the span from the 9th to the 15th centuries, allowing greater scope to explore historical development, comparisons and contrasts over the longue duree. Second, it is not just focused on work by historians, but comprises studies by scholars in a wide range of disciplines, including history, literature, art history, and music. The rationale is that Medieval Pastoral Care is a subject of broad interdisciplinary interest, and to achieve a richer and fuller appreciation of this important topic, medievalists from different disciplines need to engage in dialogue with one another.

Several of the volume's chapters will, therefore, reassess the council's legislation on pastoral care and its impact. The wide chronological coverage of the volume will |
