Beskrivning
One of the leading historians of medieval universities in the last generation, Gaines Post published less than a quarter of his 1931 dissertation on the role of the papacy in the rise of universities. The entire work merits publication, both because of the remaining content and because it reveals more on how Gaines Post, a product of Charles Homer Haskins' seminar at Harvard in the late 1920s, approached his subject. The volume covers the interaction of the papacy with multiple universities from the twelfth and thirteenth centuries and opens up a much broader range of topics, considering papal intervention and influence in the areas of licensing to teach, financial support for masters and students, dispensations for study, regulation of housing rents, and the founding of colleges.See inside the book.

''This volume represents a still-valuable work of scholarship and an appropriate tribute to a major scholar of the previous century.'' Paul Knoll, in Reinassance Quarterly , LXXII, NO.1 (2018). "This book originated as the dissertation of Professor Gaines Post (d.1987), written under the direction of Charles Homer Haskins at Harvard University and approved in 1931. [...] We have Professor William J. Courtenay to thank for bringing this book to print. Courtenay's editorial interventions in the text appear light; he offers the book both as an original contribution to research into the rise of the universities but also as a window into the research conducted by Charles Homer Haskins and his students at Harvard'. [...] Post's careful and patient narrative of the emerging legal relationships complements these later analyses with the timely reminder that legal, juridical, and material conditions played significant roles in the formation of the university cultures". Robert J. Porwool, in Sixteenth Century Journal vol. 1, n.2, 2019.
