The Rise of the Roman Catholic Church

Dark Ages: The Rise of Christianity The word Catholic derives from the Middle English word 'catholik' and from the Old French 'catholique' and the Latin word 'catholicus' meaning universal or whole. During the Dark Ages Christianity was represented by the Roman Catholic Church. The Catholic Church was the dominant religion and source of power in Europe. The Roman Catholic Church controlled religion, philosophy, morals, politics, art and education following the collapse of the Roman Empire in 476AD. Following the collapse of the Roman Empire, the Roman Church provides; structure, education, faith, community, power or influence, and wealth.

Rise of Christianity in Ancient Rome Following his success at the Battle of Milvian Bridge, the Emperor Constantine in 313AD passed the Edict of Milan which declared the Roman Empire neutral to religious views. The Edict of Milan was an important step in legalising Christianity and providing Christians the freedom to practice and spread their faith. Constantine also converted to Christianity during his reign as Emperor.

Constantine and the Church Constantine considered himself the patron of the Christian faith. Constantine supported the Church;  Financially, loans and gifts;  Had Basilicas and churches built;  Promoted Christians to high ranking offices;  Exempt religious clergy from certain taxes;  Gave the Church land and property.

Church Organisation The Church was controlled by the Bishop of Rome (Pope), who was elected by Cardinals (and still is today). The Roman Catholic Church had its own lands and wealth. They also imposed their own taxes and laws across Europe. The Church sent missionaries throughout Europe. These missionaries established monasteries in communities

The Monasteries St Benedict introduced Monastic Rule around 500AD. Monastic rule was important in the early structure of the Catholic Church. Monasteries acted as a bastion of Christianity. A monastery complex typically comprises a number of buildings which include a church, dormitory, cloister, refectory, library, balneary (baths) and infirmary (hospital). Monastery were centres of intellectual progression and education. Welcomed aspiring priests to come study and learn, allowing them even to challenge doctrine in dialogue with superiors. Monasteries cared for travellers and people in the community tending to injuries or emotional needs.

Christianity and Great Leaders We have already looked at two leaders that converted to Christianity:  Alfred the Great (King of Wessex)  Clovis I (King of the Salic Franks) There are many more, including one famous individual that helped spread Christianity:  Charlemagne (King of the Frankish Empire and Holy Roman Emperor)
