Abstract

This paper investigates the engagement of the bishops of the Kingdom of Castile with the Fourth Lateran Council in 1215 and the ways in which they encountered the events and legislation of the Council. It offers a new synthesis of the available data and considers the ways in which the Castilian experience of the Fourth Lateran Council can be measured against its contemporaries. By examining its discourse in contrast to local lived realities, scholarly study can better understand the ways in which conciliar acta were a point of discourse for local clerics, rather than a normative standard against which their actions would be judged.
