Résumé
The church was not a building. For the medieval villager, it was the rhythm that split the year into planting and fasting, the authority that sanctioned marriage and buried the dead, the unseen hand that reached into the cradle and the grave alike. This history examines how ecclesiastical power operated not through cathedrals and councils, but through the daily negotiations of ordinary people who tithed, confessed, and obeyed.
Drawing on manorial records, sermon collections, and penitential manuals, it reconstructs a world where salvation was a practical concern and sin had a price. The parish priest was often as poor as his flock; the bishop was a landlord; the monastery was an economic engine. Faith and survival intertwined in ways that shaped European society for centuries. What emerges is not a story of piety alone, but of a social system held together by shared belief and mutual dependence.
