The Formation of Papal Authority in Late Antique Italy: Roman Bishops and the Domestic Sphere

This cultural history of papal authority in late antiquity focuses on the late Roman household, providing a new interpretation of the Roman church and its bishops during a critical period of development. Moving beyond traditional histories of the 'rise of the papacy', this study argues that Rome's bishops adopted the ancient elite household as a model of good government for leading the church.
