Menschen in ihrer Gegenwart. Die Fülle spätmittelalterlichen Lebens im Spiegel der Apostolischen Pönitentiarie

This volume of selected essays by Arnold Esch and Ludwig Schmugge, the fruit of over thirty years of research, deals with sources from the archives of the Apostolic Penitentiary, the Catholic Church's supreme tribunal of penitence and mercy – more precisely, with the registers that this 'dicastery' kept on petitions from all regions of Latin Christendom, which were positively decided upon by it. What new perspectives does their analysis open up? The contributions by both authors provide answers and suggestions to these questions.
