by Mandell Creighton

Mandell Creighton's "History of the Papacy" delves into the tumultuous period of the Great Schism, examining the rival claims to the papacy and the efforts to resolve the crisis. Creighton provides a detailed account of the events, personalities, and political machinations that shaped the Catholic Church during this era. He explores the reigns of Pope Urban VI and the anti-popes, the role of the University of Paris and various European monarchs, and the eventual resolution of the schism through the Council of Constance. The work offers a rich and insightful analysis of the complex religious, political, and social landscape of late medieval Europe.
