Offers an analysis of the changing dynamics of social mobility as played out in episcopal appointments. This book proposes a model of spiritual authority, ascetic authority and pragmatic authority, in which a bishop's visible asceticism is taken as evidence of his spiritual powers and at the same time provides justification for his public role.
