Amos, Thomas L. – Indiana Social Studies Quarterly, 1982
Discusses the role played by preaching in early medieval religious culture. The author describes how Caesarius of Arles instigated the use of short, vivid statements of Christian theology as sermon endings. The endings reinforced the orthodox image of Christ in the minds of the illiterate population and counteracted the influence of Arianism. (AM)

Amos, Thomas L. – Indiana Social Studies Quarterly, 1984
The evolution of diplomatic practices during the early Middle Ages is discussed. Research suggests that some techniques and methods began much earlier than most historians have assumed. Diplomatic efforts of Otto the Great, king of Germany, 936-973, and Holy Roman Emperor, 962-973, were studied. (RM)
