Present and Precedent in the Church Councils of Late Antique Iberia (RHS Historical Transactions)

Barrett, Graham; Wood, Jamie

Abstract

In this post, Graham Barrett and Jamie Wood outline their recent workshop on the compact between Church and crown in late antique Iberia. The workshop, funded by the Royal Historical Society’s Workshop Grant programme, enabled participants to collaborate in an investigation of the canon law collection of the Visigothic kingdom known as the Hispana. Written in dense and difficult Latin, the Hispana has never been translated into English, nor the modern critical edition into any language. The project initiated by this workshop aims to form a research network to make the Hispana accessible through English translation, annotation, and contextual studies.

RHS Workshop Grants are awarded annually to enable historians to meet together to develop research ideas or projects; the next call for applications will be in late 2024.
