Description
Abstract (cited)

This article argues for a common episcopal culture in the pre-Norman Irish Sea region in which clerical fighting was relatively unproblematic. Several factors caused previously acceptable clerical participation in warfare to stand out as ‘rogue’, bringing expectations of episcopal behaviour in line with norms in parts of Europe that were becoming culturally dominant.
