Gregory IX and the ‘Lombard Question’

View through CrossRef
This chapter concerns the role of Gregory IX in the conflict between Frederick II and the Lombard League, tracing the roots of this struggle from the time when Gregory was still a cardinal, then exploring the so-called War of the Keys, the re-emergence of the Negotium Lombardie in the 1230s, and the descent into armed conflict at the end of Gregory’s pontificate. It is argued that in contrast to the previous struggle with Barbarossa, heresy and penitential warfare came to play a central part in the political conflicts between Gregory and Frederick, which ultimately took on all the trappings of a full crusade.
