Summary
The history of the faculty of theology of Paris1 cannot be separated from the history of the university as a whole, nor from other factors such as the city of Paris, its bishop, the pope, and the king. Its schools had an episcopal character, that is, they were associations of masters who were obliged to accept a chancellor as commissarius Papae. The pope allowed the schools to become a universitas, that is to say, he granted it the right to confer the licentia ubique docendi, and thus its degrees had universal authority.
