The Swedish detective and crime...

Crkveno ustrojstvo hrvatskih zemalja u razvijenom srednjem vijeku
Crkveno ustrojstvo hrvatskih zemalja u razvijenom srednjem vijeku
Valentina Pranjić
Prilike u hrvatskim zemljama u to doba bile su zamršene. Ona je tad bila pod vlašću Ugarske, a njeni kraljevi nisu se naročito brinuli o ovim krajevima. Političke prilike najbolje su se odrazile na crkvenom ustrojstvu, koje je često bilo predmet igara moći. Imati vlast nad Crkvom u nekom području značilo je kontrolirati život tog kraja u duhovnom i gospodarskom smislu. U razvijenom srednjem vijeku hrvatske zemlje bile su razjedinjene pa tako nisu bile ni pod jedinstvenom crkvenom...

Svoju borbu protiv Katoličke crkve vlast je vodila, između ostalog, donošenjem zakona koji krše slobode i prava Crkve, raznim zabranama i osnivanjem Staleških svećeničkih udruženja kojima...
