Abstract
Imitatio Imperii, or the rise of the papal monarchy: A look at the use of the inheritance of ancient Rome, in the representation of medieval papal power, in the period 1075-1143. The uses of the Roman inheritance will be the main focus of this thesis, focusing on medieval Rome. The period I have chosen for this thesis starts at 1075 and ends at 1143, covering the period of the Investiture struggle, the Dictatus Papae and the run-up to the commune. To investigate a significant part of ancient Rome's inheritance, I will investigate the following research question: In what way was the use of the inheritance of ancient Rome, in the representation of medieval papal power, subject to change in the period 1075-1143?
