Gallicanism. The collective name for the body of doctrine which asserted the more or less complete freedom of the RC Church, especially in France, from the ecclesiastical authority of the Papacy. In the 14th and 15th cents. the main question at issue was the claim of the French Church to a privileged position in relation to the Papacy. In the Concordat of
Bologna (1516) the Pope conceded the right of the French king to nominate to bishoprics and other high ecclesiastical offices. In 1663 the
Sorbonne published a declaration, in substance reaffirmed by an Assembly of the French clergy in 1682 in the formula known as the Four
Gallican Articles (q.v.). Gallican principles were preached in the 18th cent. by the
Jansenists, and were codified and proclaimed at the Synod of
Pistoia (1786). In the 19th cent. there was a renascence of
Ultramontanism in France, and the definition of Papal
infallibility at the First
Vatican Council (1869–70) made Gallicanism incompatible with Roman Catholicism.
