Focusing on the evolution of the Papacy as a unique institution, this classic text by Walter Ullmann explores its historical trajectory from the late Roman Empire to the Renaissance. Rather than emphasizing individual popes, Ullmann examines the institutional and conceptual development of the papacy, highlighting how the roles of popes shaped its significance. He argues that the transpersonal nature of the Papacy emerged from Christian foundations, establishing it as a distinct entity in medieval society.

Focusing on the interplay between State and Church during the Middle Ages, this volume explores the ambitions of medieval popes for world domination and the ideological influences behind their policies. It highlights the significant role of English canonists in shaping papal strategies and utilizes a rich array of both printed and manuscript sources to provide a comprehensive analysis of this historical relationship.
However, Ullmann points to feudalism as the single most important medieval institution that laid the groundwork for the emergence of the modern citizen.
