Survey the history of the papacy in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries; include reasons for the Babylonian Captivity and the Great Schism, as well as the results of these two crises. Why did the popes of the late fourteenth century tend to concentrate more on the affairs of their own Italian territory and less on other matters?
What will be an ideal response?
Ans: Students should be clear about what the Babylonian Captivity and the Great Schism were and their effects on the church. Students should discuss that the parallel development of monarchs restricting papal control over the church in their countries meant loss of revenue and papal prestige, and it caused the popes to try to meet expenses by concentrating on their Italian possessions.
