摘要:This article contains, in a summary, the basic conclusions of my research works in the Church of Cuenca during the Middle Ages (12th-15th centuries). I always analyse its historic evolution bearing in mind the society of that time. For that reason, after studying the main institutional basis —bishop, cathedral chapter, parochial clergy— and economical ones, I analyse the power relations in which the Church of Cuenca was involved in the Middle Ages: relationship with the Castilian Monarchy, ecclesiastic relationship —with the Papacy, among the different hierarchical levels of the Church of Cuenca and with the religious and Military Orders— and with the lay society (nobility and councils). This is the way to prove that the Church of Cuenca was set as a structure of an institutionalised power and that it was fully integrated in the society of its time.
