Synopsis

Explores the Iconoclast controversy and its impact on the medieval church This scholarly edition presents a clear, readable account of how western and eastern churches wrestled with sacred images, church authority, and doctrinal challenges.

The volume assembles a focused study from Bernhard Jungmann’s Dissertationes selectae in Historiam Ecclesiasticam, Tom III, offering a detailed look at the rise and defense of Catholic doctrine during a time of conflict. It traces the Concilio Trullano, the Iconoclast crisis, and the debates that shaped later church structure and practice. The text also surveys major arguments, key figures, and the sources historians use to build the picture, delivering a careful, source-based narrative without sensationalism.
