Cadaveric synod

The "Corifier Synod" is the first book of the historical series "Kirie Elayson", which tells about the events that took place on the territory of modern Italy at the end of the 9th - first half of the 10th centuries and preceded the emergence of the Holy Roman Empire of the German nation. These years have become a turning point in the fate of the states of the entire medieval Western Europe and the time, about which the Christian church would prefer to forget. The final fading of the empire of Charles the Great and the deep moral fall of the Roman Catholic Church, whose apotheosis was the trial of the dead man, led to the appearance of people who are far from the ideals of Christianity on the holy throne, whose actions and lifestyle were dictated by the whims and power of two women - the spouses and daughter of the senator Theophylact, famous for their beauty and corruption. In the history of the Roman Catholic Church, this period was called "pornocracy", or "reign of whores"
