Lateran Councils
(2,427 words)
[German Version] The Lateran Councils, which were held in the papal palace in Rome, the Lateran, belong among the so-called “papal councils,” because they were convened and largely defined by the bishop of Rome.

First Lateran Council. Called in June 1122 by Pope Callistus II, this synod, which met Mar 27–28, 1123 and was attended only by Western representatives, set out to continue the Gregorian “reforms,” after the Concordat (Concordats) of Worms in 1122 had achieved a settlement between emperor and pope in the Investiture Controversy, which the synod essentially confirmed, despite resistance (Empire and Papacy). It was determined that the consecration of bishops presupposes a canonical election (c. 3). Without the agreemen…

Theologische Fakultäten
(2,687 words)
1. AllgemeinAufgrund der komplexen Entstehungsgeschichte der europ. Universitäten (= Univ.) gab es im HochMA eine Th. F. nur an den nach dem Modell von Paris in vier Fakultäten (Artisten-F., Juristische Fakultät, Medizinische Fakultät und Th. F.) untergliederten Lehranstalten. Die nach dem Vorbild Bolognas gegründeten Hochschulen hingegen bestanden aus zwei Untereinheiten, die selbst Univ. hießen (Univ. der Juristen bzw. der Artisten und Mediziner). Die Theologie gehörte hier nicht zum Univ.-Studium, sondern wurde an Einrichtungen der Bettelorden betrieben (Mönchtum, Orden). Während das Bologneser Modell v. a. in Italien und Spanien einflussreich war, orientierten sich die Univ.-Gründungen im übrigen Europa an Paris.Um die Orthodoxie der Theologen besser kontrollieren zu können, ließen die Päpste anfangs nur wenige Th. F. zu: neben Paris nur in Oxford, Cambridge und Rom (Univ. der päpstlichen Kurie). Nach 1360, als diese Politik aufgegeben wurde, erhielten alle Neugründungen nach dem Pariser Modell eine Th. F.; selbst in Bologna wurde eine solche errichtet […

(2,939 words)
1.

The tertiary institutions modeled on Bologna consisted instead of two sub-units, themselves called universities (University of the Jurists, University of the Artists and Physicians). Here theology was not part of university studies but was taught at institutions run by the mendicant orders (Monasticism, Order [association]). While the Bolognese model was primarily dominant in Italy and Spain, the universities founded elsewhere in Europe follo…

grace has been influenced strongly by the historically innovative Pauline conception. For Paul, grace is a gift, a unique fruit of God's salvific purpose and redemptive action.
