  • Papauté Avignon
    A la découverte de l’Histoire Cours d’Histoire 2012/2013. G. Durand COURS 11 – LA PAPAUTE A AVIGNON Avignon doit sa célébrité, et l'essentiel de sa physionomie, au séjour qu'y fit la papauté au xive siècle. De 1309 à 1367 (ou 1403 si l'on compte les papes du Grand Schisme), la ville devint la capitale de la Chrétienté, principalement à cause de l'insécurité politique de Rome et de l'Italie d'alors. Papes français, les neuf papes d'Avignon se plurent sur les bords du Rhône, mais ils donnèrent toujours la priorité à la reconquête de leur pouvoir temporel en Italie. Dans des circonstances défavorables, ils surent, en excellents juristes, augmenter leur pouvoir en faisant de leur curie l'instrument d'une centralisation rigoureuse que favorisait l'heureuse situation géographique d'Avignon. Mais cette évolution, loin de résoudre le problème constitutionnel dans l'Église, l'aggrava bien plutôt, comme en témoigne le Grand Schisme ; elle aggrava aussi l'enlisement de l'Église dans les affaires temporelles : la « réforme dans la tête et les membres », réclamée au concile de Vienne, resta lettre morte. Sans doute était-il vain de l'attendre d'abord de réformes administratives. 1. La papauté à Avignon • Circonstances de l'établissement de Clément V à Avignon (1305-1314) Lorsque Bertrand de Got, archevêque de Bordeaux, est élu pape en 1305, il se fait couronner à Lyon, sur le chemin de l'Italie, avec l'espoir de réconcilier dans cette ville d'Empire les rois de France et d'Angleterre, en guerre au sujet de l'Aquitaine.

Department of Fine Arts The University of British Columbia 2075 Wesbrook Place Vancouver, Canada V6T 1W5 Date April 17, 1978. ii ABSTRACT Thomas Patch (1725-1782) is a relatively unknown English artist of the eighteenth century whose claim to fame so far has rested in his caricature work. He went to Rome around 1747, was banished from there in 1755 and joined the English circle in Florence where he remained until his death in 1782. Patch's work in Florence included his copying of what Vasari had said to be a fresco cycle by Giotto in the Church of the Carmine. This cycle had been damaged in a fire that broke out in the old church in 1771, and it had to be destroyed to make way for the new church that was completed in 1773.

  • PAPAL COINAGE to 1605 NOTES on PAPAL COINAGE the Papal Mint Is the Pope's Institute for the Production of Hard Cash
    PAPAL COINAGE To 1605 NOTES ON PAPAL COINAGE The Papal Mint is the pope's institute for the production of hard cash. Papal Mint may also refer to the buildings in Avignon, Rome and elsewhere which used to house the mint. (The Italian word for mint is Zecca). The right to coin money being one of the regalia (sovereign prerogatives), there can be no papal coins of earlier date than that of the temporal power of the popes. Nevertheless, there are coins of Pope Zacharias (741-52), of Gregory III (Ficoroni, "Museo Kircheriano"), and possibly of Gregory II (715-741). There is no doubt that these pieces, two of which are of silver, are true coins, and not merely a species of medals, like those which were distributed as "presbyterium" at the coronation of the popes since the time of Valentine (827). Their stamp resembles that of the Byzantine and Merovingian coins of the seventh and eighth centuries, and their square shape is also found in Byzantine pieces. Those that bear the inscription GREII PAPE — SCI PTR (Gregorii Papæ — Sancti Petri) cannot be attributed to Pope Gregory IV (827-44), because of the peculiarity of minting. The existence of these coins, while the popes yet recognized the Byzantine domination, is explained by Hartmann (Das Königreich Italien, Vol. III), who believes that, in the eighth century, the popes received from the emperors the attributes of "Præfectus Urbis". Under the empire, coins that were struck in the provinces bore the name of some local magistrate, and those coins of Gregory and of Zacharias are simply imperial Byzantine pieces, bearing the name of the first civil magistrate of the City of Rome.
