- Title
RÖMISCHE PILGERZEICHEN UND DAS KAPITEL VON ST. PETER IM VATIKAN: Eine übersehene Urkunde Gregors IX.
- Authors
JOHRENDT, JOCHEN
- Abstract
The article discusses a 13th-century document signed by Pope Gregory IX in 1228, which deals with the rights of the chapter of St. Peter's Cathedral with regard to the production and distribution of pilgrim badges. After providing background information on the social and historical significance of medieval pilgrim batches and on the administrative processes involved in papal grants in the Middle Ages, the author points out that, unlike similar, previous papal decrees, this source was not entered into the papal registry of legal documents. He suggests possible historiographical interpretations as to the meaning of this fact.
