Abstract: A few years ago, Timothy Reuter wrote an essay on European bishops around the year 1000 and called it Ein Europa der Bischöfe (A Europe of Bishops). He argued that bishops and their dioceses had much more in common throughout Europe than kings and their reigns had. Taking this as a starting point, the session will try to compare the duties and deeds of bishops in some parts of Europe, especially England as well as the Western and Eastern Frankish Kingdoms, during the 10th and 11th centuries.
