520 |a When early medieval sources recorded the appointment of a new bishop, the authors occasionally provided extra information on the social, geographical, educational and ecclesiastical background of the appointee. Those details were not randomly chosen, since they reflected ideas that emerged in the previous centuries and culminated in a disparate corpus of texts commonly referred to as ‘canon law'. In this article, I shall take a closer look at the bishops in the church province of Rheims in the ‘long' 10th century (between 888 and 1049). In particular, I will zoom in on one feature of the episcopal profile that frequently surfaces in narrative, diplomatic and epistolary sources: the pre-episcopal career. After a brief discussion of canonical prescriptions on the ecclesiastical career, I shall explore the functions the bishops exercised before their promotion to a see, in the secular clergy, in monastic milieux or at the royal court. Despite the traditional emphasis on a 10th-century ‘Church in the hands of the laity', this analysis demonstrates that canon law on the requirements for episcopal candidates was not necessarily disregarded. The sources representing the career of the studied bishops first and foremost paint a picture of continuity: deeply rooted in Late Antique, Merovingian and Carolingian developments, yet steadily transforming, pressed by local circumstances.
