| | Avignon Papacy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The claim of the Papacy for universal sovereignty, reiterated since Gregory VII's "Dictatus Papae" and championed by Boniface VIII at the beginning of the century, was impossible to uphold in the face of Scholastic movements and the influential works of Marsilius of Padua and William of Occam. | | | This nickname is polemical, in that it refers to the claim by critics that the prosperity of the church at this time was accompanied by a profound compromise of the Papacy's spiritual integrity, especially in the alleged subordination of the powers of the Church to the ambitions of the French kings. | | | In the history of the Roman Catholic Church, the Avignon Papacy was the period from 1305 to 1378 during which the Bishop of Rome, the Pope, lived in Avignon (now a part of France) rather than in Rome. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Avignon |
| | Avignon, which at the beginning of the fourteenth century was a town of no great importance, underwent a wonderful development during the residence there of nine popes, Clement V to Benedict XIII, inclusively. | | | After the restoration of the Holy See in Rome, the spiritual and temporal government of Avignon was entrusted to a legate, the cardinal-nephew, who was replaced, in his absence by a vice-legate. | | | The memory of St. Eucherius still clings to three vast caves near the village of Beaumont, whither,it is said, the people of Lyons had to go in sea arch of him when they sought him to make him their archbishop. |

| | Papacy |
| | The papacy denotes the office of the pope, or bishop of Rome, and the system of central ecclesiastical government of the Roman Catholic Church over which he presides. | | | Such was the situation when the papacy was confronted in the early 16th century with the great challenge posed by Martin Luther to the traditional teaching on the church's doctrinal authority and much else besides. | | | Protestants are pleased to see a return to Scripture in the papacy's conception of the church's mission and the priest's office, together with a far greater openness toward other Christian churches. |

| | The excesses of the papacy at Avignon, and even more the spectacle of the schism, caused many thoughtful Christians to lose faith not in their religion, but in the priesthood. | | | The most significant development was that of lay piety, movements all over Europe (but especially strong in the cities) in which laymen sought God not through the agency of their priest and the sacraments, but through Bible study and common prayer. | | | Because of bishop is supposed to reside in his see, this circumstance, which lasted from 1305 to 1378, undermined the authority and prestige of the papacy. |

| | The church was generally seen as greedy and insensitive, so people turned to mysticism, the national churches, and secular leadership. | | | When the Black Death struck, however, the clergy were not able to minister to all of the dying or to bury them in consecrated ground, which meant -- according to the Church itself -- that those dead whom it had failed to help were destined to spend eternity in Hell. | | | Apostolic poverty was the position that Jesus and his disciples did not concern themselves with money or possession, and neither did the Church in its early and pure days. |

| | THE AVIGNON PAPACY |
| | All western church government centralized in the papacy during the Middle Ages. | | | The French dominated the church during the whole Avignon period. | | | Neither Clement nor John were evil men but they were worldly and lived a scandalously wealthy lifestyle. |

| | The papacy, after all, was of human origin, having been founded by Constantine, not by Christ. | | | The idea that a general council of the church might be capable of healing the schism was an idea slow to catch on. | | | The idea of holding a general council of the whole church in western Europe--something both Popes repeatedly denounced--was seen by a few as a practical way of eliminating the schism and also making some long overdue reforms. |

| | With the accession of Bonifice to the papacy the church had plunged itself headlong into the same kind political silliness which characterized the European royalty. | | | He was demanding that the Europe should acknowledge the church as a political and a religious power. | | | Innocent helped to make the papacy a real power in both Europe and Italy, but the basis of this power was political, was secular. |

| | The Great Schism |
| | Not without connivance of the public power, Geoffrey Boucicaut, brother of the illustrious Marshal, laid siege to Avignon and a more or less strict blockade deprived the Pontiff of all communication of all those who remained Faithful to him. | | | From the Book, "Popes Through the Ages," by Rev Joseph S. Brusher S. Pope Gregory XI had left Avignon to return to Italy and had re-established the Pontifical See in the Eternal City, where he died on March 27, 1378. | | | This is the question which has been asked since the end of the 14th Century. |

| | Influential thinkers and writers began to claim that the authority of the monarchs was superior to that of the pope and, in its role as protector of the people, the state had the responsibility of overseeing the Church's discharge of its functions. | | | Some demanded that the Church give up its wealth and property because Jesus and the Apostles were without property. | | | Popular responses to the situation arose -- critics of the Church and its practices that neither papal administration found easy to silence. |

| | Avignon papacy -- Encyclopædia Britannica |
| | Although much about the early popes remains shrouded in darkness, scholars agree that the bishops of Rome were selected in the same manner as other bishops—that is, elected by the clergy and people of the area (though there is some evidence that some of the early bishops attempted to appoint their successors). | | | In the 1280s and 1290s, Rome was torn by the bitter rivalries among the Colonna, the Orsini, and the Annibaldi families, a discord encouraged by Pope Boniface VIII. | | | The major cause of the schism was the move of the papacy to Avignon, France, early in the 14th century. |
