Summary "The Rise of the Mediaeval Church" by Alexander Clarence Flick is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work examines the development and influence of the Christian Church on the civilization of Western Europe from the first to the thirteenth century. Flick aims to provide a clear narrative of the Church’s evolution without delving into theological debates, focusing instead on its organizational growth and societal impact. At the start of the book, Flick discusses the current status of Church history within academic curricula, noting it has often been overshadowed by political history and other secular fields. He emphasizes a newfound interest in Church history, highlighting its significance and the resurgence of scholarly examination on this subject. Flick illustrates how the Church shaped societal structures and personal lives in Europe, suggesting that understanding Church history is essential in comprehending the broader narrative of Western civilization. This opening sets the stage for a compelling exploration of the intricate relationship between the Church and the development of Europe through the Middle Ages.
