The Council of Constance (1414-1418) is considered one of the most significant councils in church history. It was not only the first council held on German soil but also the only one that successfully ended a schism in the church with the election of Martin V. Contemporary observers recognized that the Council of Constance was the largest, longest, and most important church assembly of the Middle Ages, with results that continue to have various impacts to this day. This volume examines the council not only from theological or church-political perspectives but also as a forum for ideas, a media event, a hub of knowledge, and a center of communication.
