Revision of Ecclesiastical Organization in Medieval British Isles

该项目旨在修订不列颠群岛教区之前对平信徒的牧灵关怀的教会组织。它认为，相反，以前的假设，组织牧养的结构在世纪之前基本上是相似的，在英格兰和凯尔特语的英国和爱尔兰。正是由于爱丁堡改革对爱尔兰、威尔士和苏格兰教会的无声影响，才突出了这些教会与英格兰教会的差异，使它们在11世纪和12世纪的改革者眼中显得如此离经叛道。

This project aimed at the revision of the ecclesiastical organization for the pastoral care to the laity before the parish in British Isles. It argues that, to the contrary previous assumptions, the structures for organizing pastoral care before tenth century were basically similar in England and in Celtic-speaking Britain and Ireland. It was the muted impact of the Carolingian reforms upon the churches in Ireland, Wales, and Scotland that accentuated the differences between them and English church, and left them appearing so deviant in the eyes of eleventh - and twelfth-century reformers.
