Military and Religious Life in the Middle Ages and at the Period of the Renaissance (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Military and Religious Life in the Middle Ages and at the Period of the Renaissance
This transformation took place gradually and slowly, as being necessary and inevitable, by the continued and simultaneous enfranchisement of men and of land. The slave whom paganism, as it disappeared, handed over to the Christian religion, passed first from a state of servitude to a state of bondage, from bondage he rose to mortmain, and from mortmain to liberty.
Under the influence of the bishops, legislation was formed upon the principles of Christian morality. In the great councils of the nation, and in the royal councils, they gave a Christian direction to the government of the country, and more than once preserved national unity from being broken up. The bishops, says Gibbon, constructed the French monarchy just as the bees construct the hive.
