Download or read book Adrian IV the English Pope 1154 1159 written by Brenda Bolton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year 2002 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. 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 Scandanavia 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. This is the first large-scale work on Adrian since 1925, and is supported by a substantial appendix of relevant sources and documents in translation.
Download or read book Laudabiliter written by Pope Adrian IV and published by Dalcassian Publishing Company. This book was released on 2019-12-07 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laudabiliter was a bull issued in 1155 by Pope Adrian IV, the only Englishman to have served in that office. Existence of the bull has been disputed by scholars over the centuries; no copy is extant but scholars cite the many references to it as early as the 13th century to support the validity of its existence. The bull purports to grant the right to the Angevin King Henry II of England to invade and govern Ireland and to enforce the Gregorian Reforms on the semi-autonomous Christian Church in Ireland. Richard de Clare ("Strongbow") and the other leaders of the Norman invasion of Ireland (1169–71) claimed that Laudabiliter authorised the invasion. These Cambro-Norman knights were retained by Diarmuid MacMorrough, the deposed King of Leinster, as an ally in his fight with the High King of Ireland, Ruaidrí Ua Conchobair.

Download or read book Pope Adrian IV An Historical Sketch written by Richard Raby and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-04-25 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a biographical sketch by author Richard Raby on the 12th century pope Adrian IV. Pope Adrian IV (born Nicholas Breakspear) was head of the Catholic Church and ruler of the Papal States from 4 December 1154 to his death in 1159. He is the only Englishman to have been pope. One of the famous acts of Pope Adrian was the definitive statement of marriage as a sacrament, when he allowed serfs to marry without having to obtain their lord's permission as had traditionally been the case. Adrian's reasoning was that a sacrament outweighed a feudal due and that no Christian had the right to stand in the way of another's receiving of a sacrament.

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.

Download or read book The Irish Church Its Reform and the English Invasion written by Donnchadh Ó Corráin and published by . This book was released on 2022-05-20 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book radically reassesses the reform of the Irish Church in the twelfth century, on its own terms and in the context of the English Invasion that it helped precipitate. Professor Ó Corráin sets these profound changes in the context of the pre-Reform Irish church, in which he is a foremost expert. He re-examines how Canterbury's political machinations drew its archbishops into Irish affairs, offering Irish kings and bishops unsought advice, as if they had some responsibility for the Irish church: the author exposes their knowledge as limited and their concerns not disinterested. The Irish Church, its Reform and the English Invasion considers the success of the major reforming synods in giving Ireland a new diocesan structure, but equally how they failed to impose marriage reform and clerical celibacy, a failure mirrored elsewhere.

Book excerpt: Preface 4Chapter I 5Chapter II 14Chapter III 31Chapter IV 40Chapter V 51Chapter VI 60Chapter VII 73Chapter VIII 81Chapter IX 92The following sketch was written to supply what its author felt persuaded could not fail to interest his fellow Catholics in England; namely, some account of the only English Pope who ever reigned.In it he does not pretend to any novelty of research; but simply to present a connected narrative of such events in the history of Pope Adrian IV as have hitherto lain broken and concealed in old chronicles, or been slightly touched for the most part in an incidental way by modern writers.In the course of his sketch, the author has ventured to take part with Pope Adrian in some acts of his, which it is commonly the mode to condemn. Should his opinions in so doing not be deemed sound, he yet hopes that at least the spirit which inspired them - in other words, the spirit to promote the cause of practical rather than theoretical policy, as also of public order and legitimate authority, will deserve commendation.For the rest, the striking similarity between the difficulties which Pius IX in our day has to contend with, and those which Pope Adrian had to encounter in the twelfth century, should only lend the more interest to his story.- Richard Raby, Munich, May, 1849
