The Avignonese period produced major changes
both in the functioning of the papacy and in the
way the rest of the church perceived it. Never
had the papacy done so much or with such
effectiveness. Never had the papacy possessed a
greater income or a greater impact on the
farthest reaches of Christendom. But
simultaneous with this growth in power was a
decline in reputation. In the mid-eleventh
century, the papacy had emerged as the leader of
the reform movement in the western church. For
more than two centuries the popes gave direction
and inspiration to zealous reformers and pious
believers ... In the fourteenth century, the
conviction grew that the papacy itself needed
reform. Joseph H. Lynch, The Medieval Church
A Brief History (Harlow, 1992), p. 327

Enthusiasts for the conciliar theory upheld,
in various forms, the principle that councils
were the fundamental source of authority in the
Church, superior to popes, who could err, and
that they should have a permanent place in the
life of the Church. Euan Cameron, The European
Reformation (Oxford, 1991), p. 49

Petrarch ... unholy Babylon, Hell on earth, a
sink of iniquity, the cess-pool of the world.
There is neither faith, nor charity, nor
religion, nor fear of God, nor shame, nor truth,
nor holiness, albeit the residence within its
walls of the supreme pontiff should have made of
it a shrine and the very stronghold of religion
... Of all the cities I know, its stench is the
worst ... What dishonour to see it suddenly
become the capital of the world when it should be
but the least of all cities. Quoted in G.
Mollat, The Popes at Avignon 1305-1378 (London,
1963), pp. 155-156

Petrarch Arrayed in purple and scarlet, and
decked with gold and precious stones and pearls
having a golden cup in her hand, full of
abominations and the filth of her fornication.
Quoted in Mollat, Popes, p. 156

In the 204 years from 1100 until 1304, the popes
spent 122 away from Rome and 82 in Rome that is,
40 years more away from Rome than in it. L.
Gayet, Le Grande Schisme dOccident (Florence,
1889), p. 3.

Of those members of the papal curia whose
geographical origins can be determined, 1,552
(70) were French, 521 (23.1) were Italian, 69
(3.1) came from the Empire, and 24 (1) came
from England.Source Francis Oakley, The
Western Church in the Later Middle Ages (Ithaca
and London, 1979), p. 42
