*NB This course will begin one week after the usual Telepaideia start date. The first course meeting will be Thursday, October 10th.
Course Description: Documentation arising from the medieval papacy (bulls, epistles, constitutions, etc) was calculated not just to lay down the Catholic church's position on various doctrinal issues but can be read as providing a map for the development of intellectual history in the Middle Ages. This course will read several documents in different genres from across the Middle Ages, developing skills in the tropes of the different document types. Students will learn to read from the original documents and to identify their type from their characteristic formats.
