History
1 answer:
BigorU [14]3 years ago
8 0

Here's your list:

<u>MONKS</u>;

  • lived in monasteries
  • copied manuscripts  of books

<u>THE POPE</u>:

  • considered to be infallible
  • held the most power within  the hierarchy of the church
  • could excommunicate  the king

Some further explanation:

The history of monasticism (the life of monks) goes back at least as far as the 3rd century of Christian history.  St. Anthony was famous in those days for going out into the desert to live by himself, and others followed his example. Beginning in the 4th century, communities of monks began to form to live in community with one another in monasteries.  Copying books was one of their occupations together, along with prayer and daily tasks.

The office of the pope developed out of the position of the Bishop of Rome.  Over time, the Bishop of Rome asserted more and more power over other bishops in the church.  Leo the Great (5th century) and Gregory the Great (end of 6th century) were two key figures in advancing the power of the "universal bishop" of Rome as leader of the whole church.  The doctrine of the pope being "infallible" (unable to be in error) when speaking on matters of faith and doctrine was not officially proclaimed until the First Vatican Council in the 19th century.  However, that belief about the pope's authority had developed long before that, already during the Middle Ages.

On the First Continental Congress, the colonists also pleaded with King George III explaining their issues with the Acts imposed on them, commiting to reuniting again shall their demands not be met.

Please ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Troyanec [42]

Catholics were granted representation in parliament.

In the mid-1840s Famine caused due to potato blight was the main cause of massive Irish immigration to the United States. Thousands of poor labors migrated to the United States due to poverty and hunger. In 17th and 18th century Penal laws restricted Irish Catholics for representation in parliament and also restricted their voting rights. However, the Roman Catholics relief act has given the demands of the Catholics who stayed in Ireland after the famine and granted the representation to sit in parliament.
