Download or read book Adrian IV The English Pope 1154 1159 written by Brenda Bolton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year 2000 witnessed the 900th anniversary of the birth of Adrian IV, the only Englishman to sit on the papal throne. His short pontificate of four and a half years, distracted by crisis and controversy and followed as it was by an 18-year schism, could be judged a low point in the history of the papacy. The studies in this book challenge the view that Adrian was little more than a cipher, the tool of powerful factions in the Curia. This is the first large-scale work on Adrian since 1925, and is supported by a substantial appendix of relevant sources and documents in facing translation. Relations with the Empire, the Norman kingdom and the Patrimony are all radically reassessed and the authenticity of 'Laudabiliter' reconsidered. At the same time, the spiritual, educational and devotional contexts in which he was operating are fully assessed; his activities in Catalonia and his legatine mission to Scandinavia are examined in the light of recent research, and his special relationship with St Albans is explored through his privileges to this great abbey. These studies by leading scholars in the field, together with the introductory chapter by Christopher Brooke, reveal an active and engaged pope, reacting creatively to the challenges and crises of the Church and the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nicholas Breakspear (Adrian IV.): Englishman and Pope This life of the only Englishman who ever occupied the Papal chair is the outcome of, at least, a conscientious study of the subject. Some years ago I was interested in trying to ascertain the grounds on which one of the traditions current concerning Nicholas Breakspear rested, and, by degrees, I accumulated such a number of notes about him as to make me think it worth while to throw them into the form of a memoir of his life, and of the times in which he lived, so far as they influenced or were influenced by him. It is strange that notwithstanding the unique character of Breakspear's career it is still very little known. Every schoolboy can give the outlines of the life of Thomas a Beket, who was made Archdeacon of Canterbury in the year Adrian IV. died; while it is not everyone who can even fix the century in which the English Pope lived.

Download or read book Breakspear written by R. A. J. Waddingham and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2022-08-25 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In over 2,000 years of Christianity, there has been only one pope from England: Nicholas Breakspear. Breakspear was elected pope in 1154, but his story started long before that. The son of a local churchman near St Albans, he would battle his way across Europe to defend and develop Christianity, facing war in Scandinavia and the Moors in the Iberian Peninsula. But it was after he took the throne of St Peter as Adrian IV that he would face his greatest threat: Frederick Barbarossa, who was determined to restore the Holy Roman Empire to its former greatness. In Breakspear: The English Pope, R.A.J. Waddingham opens the archives to tell the story of a man who rose from humble beginnings to glorious power – and yet has been all but forgotten ever since.
