a battle that extended all over Europe with varying
results. The church in the main supported the
centralizing actions of the crown against the barons, the
latter were opposed to the power of the church courts.
These courts took cases away from the local feudal
jurisdiction just as much as from the crown courts, and
the barons were suspicious of any attempt on the part of
the church to introduce Roman law because of the
support which it gave to state absolutism. Reasons of
this kind explain the unstable alliances and constant
shifting of support which mark the three cornered
antagonism of crown, barons and church in the Middle
Ages.
