Specifically, the main topics covered are listed below: - political, social and cultural changes between the 14th and 15th centuries; - the Avignon papacy; - the Western Schism the councils of the 15th century; - the Renaissance papacy; - the Protestant Reformation; - the Catholic Reformation and the Council of Trent; - Christianity, globalisation and mission; - The Age of Absolutism and Jurisdictionalism; - The Age of Enlightenment; - Church and the French Revolution.
