1906 to POPE CELESTINE III 98 the Description of the Interview Given by Boso 1906 TO POPE CELESTINE III 98 the description of the interview given by Boso. Haec apud castrum Iiadulphi vidimus, writes Peter, %ii>i etiam Romanorum votis . plenioribus xeniis auri et argenti regia munificentia satisfecit.91 Some thirty years earlier Boso had written— In diebus illis predictus rex Anglorum domnum Alexandnun papam apud Dolense monasteriam corporali praesentia visitavit . Sed post oscula pedum aureis oblatis muTieribus ad oscula einsdem pontifioia eat receptoa . et largitis magnis muneribus aibi et fratribus suis, cum laetitia recessit ab eo.9s Downloaded from It is a tempting hypothesis, though it cannot be absolutely proved, that Peter of Blois was himself present at the meeting at Dol. He went to Home about 1161, to do honour to Alexander in, and was ill-treated by the followers.of the anti-pope.93 After this his biographers lose eight of him, until they find him a few years' http://ehr.oxfordjournals.org/ later studying at Paris. What is more likely than that he returned to France in the train of Alexander III, journeyed with him to Dol, and on to Tours, in his own country, near to his birthplace, Blois, and the scene of his early studies, and so to Paris ? M Such a theory would supply a missing link in the biography of Peter of Blois, and would explain his use of the first person when, in Epistle 144, he wrote of the emperor's excommunication, and of the interview with the English king at Chateauroux. Be this as it may, the at Georgetown University on August 31, 2015 letters written by Peter of Blois in 1198,81 by their incidental agreement with the contemporary biography of Alexander III, lend weight to the testimony of Boso, establish the fact of the meeting at Dol, and set at rest the vexed question of the whereabouts of Henry II from 18 to 20 Sept. in the year 1162. BEATRICE A. LEES. The Mythical Town of Orwell. WAS there ever a town of Orwell ? The river Orwell we know; Harwich harbour, the portus de OnceU or Orwell haven of the records, is its estuary. But Morant' asserts that there was once a town of Orwell; that it was situated on the West Hocks, off Walton " Ep. 144: cf. the opening of the passage: Quart non append itis in libra iustitiae beneficia quae bonae memoriae Henricut pater istius regia robis, ticut vidimus, in articulo summae necetritatis exhibvit ) " Watterich, Pont. Rom. Vit. ii. 393. •» Ep. 48. " It is perhaps fanciful to see a confirmation of this theory in Ep. 48, where he mentions Cardinal Jacincta (Hyacinth), who travelled to France with Alexander, and Bpeak9 of the schism as a storm threatening the ship of St. Peter, a simile used by Alexander III himself in a letter to the patriarch of Grado, written in 1161 (Watterich, op. cit. ii. 615), and also used by Peter of Blois in Ep. 144 in- connexion with the ChiteauroDx incident. '• Epp. 144 and 14G. Ep. 145 does not mention the Cbateauronx incident. 1 History of Essex, p. 601. 94 THE MYTHICAL TOWN OF ORWELL Jan. Naze, and that it was overwhelmed by the sea; Sir <Jharles Eyell * adds 'since the Conquest.' Camden says nothing of it; but his editor * of 1789 follows Morant; neither Gongh nor Morant gives any authority for his statement. There are, however, some docu- ments of the fourteenth and fifteenth centaries, which Morant might have cited, in which a town of Orwell, villa de Orwell, is mentioned. At first sight these seem to justify his statement, and if no town of Orwell ever existed they require explanation. There is, so far as the present writer is aware, no "other authority for the existence of the town. The probability is that Morant was Downloaded from misled by fishermen's tales and that no such town ever existed. The evidence from the records which appears to assert :the existence of the town is as follows : Between A.D. 1229- and 1466 writs were several times addressed, or were directed to issue, to the mayor, community, bailiffs, or men of Orwell town, ville de Orwell; http://ehr.oxfordjournals.org/ and in four * of the documents. Orwell appears to be distinguished from Harwich or Ipswich, for those towns are mentioned as well as Orwell. In 1847 a ship of the town of Orwell is mentioned.5 In 1870, the fleet having been ordered to assemble ad pwtum de Orewell, victuals were forbidden to be sold within a stated distance of Orwell town,, duodecim leucas a villa de Orewell.* In 1408 the harbour of the town of Orwell is mentioned : an arrest waff made at Georgetown University on August 31, 2015 apud Orwell... in portu dicte ville de Orewell.7 - A foreign writer • of the first part of the fifteentti century speaks of a town called ' Oriola,' which the French fleet proposed to attack : by ' Oriola' he appears to have meant Orwell; Oreuorela, Oruelle, is marked on maps of the period in the neighbourhood of the river. There are other references in the records to Orwell (without the villa), which are ambiguous; they may imply either a town or a harbour, but it would seem that the writers had in mind a place ashore and not-a stretch- of .water. Thus the Flemings in 1174," and Queen Isabella in 1826,10 are said to have landed at Orwell.

Usque or apud Orwell is common ; and we find in partibus dt Orwell, rivaille a Orwell. There has long been a tradition among the Harwich people that there was once a town on the West Rocks. It is said that remains of buildings have been seen there, and that building stones have been dredged up from the sea bottom. At low water there is a depth in places of only a fathom or a fathom and a half, and the whole area of the West Bocks has been very throughly Downloaded from dredged (for cement stone) daring the last century. The present writer has been told by a dredgerman that he has himself seen part of' a church spire' dredged up; bat it does not seem to have been preserved, and such stories are common on the east coast. They probably have their origin in the fact that remains of the wholly http://ehr.oxfordjournals.org/ or partially submerged towns of Ravenspur, Dunwich, Southwold, and Aldeburgh have been found. There is no doubt that Walton Naze once extended much further out to sea than it does now. It wastes daily, and so long ago as the fourteenth century parts of the possessions of the church of London in that locality were described as consumpta per Mare. In the face of this evidence it will seem a bold thing to say that Morant wa3 mistaken ; but it is probable that he was. With reference to the alteration of the coast line at Georgetown University on August 31, 2015 in the neighbourhood of Harwich it is probably the fact that, as Morant suggests, the rivers Stour and Orwell formerly flowed into the sea under Bull's Cliff at Felixstowe, some distance to the north of the present estuary. But this mast have been a long time ago, probably not .in historical times. The harbour mouth has not materially changed its position for upwards of 400 years. There are in existence sailing directions, which are certainly of. not later and probably of earlier date than the fifteenth century, and they give a course (south-west) from the anchorage off Harwich into the Wallet, which would surely have put the ship ashore if the Naze had then extended to the West Rocks, and there had been then, as Morant says there was, a town there. These directions give the flow of the tide within the haven as ' south and north,' the same as it is at the present day; when the harbour mouth wad under Bull's Cliff the tide would flow east south-east and west north-west.15 Assuming for the moment that there was once a 11 Exchequer, King's Bemembrancer's Mem.

Last week we saw the demise of Henri of Champagne, and the crowning of a new King and Queen of Jerusalem, Amalric and Isabella. We also saw the German Crusade recapture the cities of Beirut and Sidon, before it collapsed after hearing about the death of the German Emperor. Now, to say that the Fourth Crusade was a controversial and notorious event is an understatement. It has been described by various historians and commentators as "infamous", "misguided", and "a fiasco". Stephen Runciman, in his trilogy on the history of the Crusades, trumped all these comments when he stated, and I quote, "there was never a greater crime against humanity than the Fourth Crusade" end of quote. This, from an historian writing in the 1950s in Europe, was a pretty big call. More recently, in the year 2001 in fact, Pope John Paul II issued a formal apology for the Fourth Crusade on behalf of the Catholic Church. So why was the Fourth Crusade so infamous? Well, you just have to keep listening to find out. The starting point for any examination of the Fourth Crusade is the election of Pope Innocent III in January 1198.

Castillo August, 2017 ii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the role of the Catholic Church in defining racial categories and construction of the social order during and after the Spanish conquest of Mexico, then New Spain. The Catholic Church, at both the institutional and local levels, was vital to Spanish colonization and exercised power equal to the colonial state within the Americas. Therefore, its interests, specifically in connection to internal and external “threats,” effected New Spain society considerably. The growth of Protestantism, the Crown’s attempts to suppress Church influence in the colonies, and the power struggle between the secular and regular orders put the Spanish Catholic Church on the defensive. Its traditional roles and influence in Spanish society not only needed protecting, but reinforcing. As per tradition, the Church acted as cultural center once established in New Spain. However, the complex demographic challenged traditional parameters of social inclusion and exclusion which caused clergymen to revisit and refine conceptions of race and gender.

  • Papal Overlordship and Protectio of the King, C.1000-1300
    1 PAPAL OVERLORDSHIP AND PROTECTIO OF THE KING, c.1000-1300 Benedict Wiedemann UCL Submitted for the degree of PhD in History 2017 2 I, Benedict Wiedemann, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 3 Papal Overlordship and Protectio of the King, c.1000-1300 Abstract This thesis focuses on papal overlordship of monarchs in the middle ages. It examines the nature of alliances between popes and kings which have traditionally been called ‘feudal’ or – more recently – ‘protective’. Previous scholarship has assumed that there was a distinction between kingdoms under papal protection and kingdoms under papal overlordship. I argue that protection and feudal overlordship were distinct categories only from the later twelfth and early thirteenth centuries. Before then, papal-royal alliances tended to be ad hoc and did not take on more general forms. At the beginning of the thirteenth century kingdoms started to be called ‘fiefs’ of the papacy. This new type of relationship came from England, when King John surrendered his kingdoms to the papacy in 1213. From then on this ‘feudal’ relationship was applied to the pope’s relationship with the king of Sicily. This new – more codified – feudal relationship seems to have been introduced to the papacy by the English royal court rather than by another source such as learned Italian jurists, as might have been expected. A common assumption about how papal overlordship worked is that it came about because of the active attempts of an over-mighty papacy to advance its power for its own sake.

  • The Latin and Greek Churches in Former Byzantine Lands Under Latin Rule
    chapter 5 The Latin and Greek Churches in former Byzantine Lands under Latin Rule Nicholas Coureas The Latins and the papacy already possessed experience in ruling over Greeks well over a century prior to the Fourth Crusade of 1204 and the resultant con- quest of peninsular Greece, Crete, and the Aegean and Ionian Islands. Latin states had been founded in the coastal areas of Syria and Palestine after the successful First Crusade of 1099, while the Normans had conquered southern Italy and Sicily in the second half of the 11th century. Greek churches, mon- asteries and communities existed in all these areas, Sicily had a substantial Greek population and southern Italy, in particular Calabria, was predomi- nantly Greek. In this chapter the establishment of Latin Churches in Cyprus, conquered by the King Richard i of England in 1191 during the Third Crusade, as well as in Constantinople, Thessalonica, Crete, Athens, the Peloponnese and the Aegean and Ionian Islands after 1204 and their relations with their Greek counterparts will be examined and discussed. Salient features of this discussion will be how the papacy regarded the Greek Church, the divergence between theory and practice in the implementation of papal policy towards the Greeks, and how the relations between Latin and Greek Churches exhib- ited strong regional divergences, to some extent attributable to the Latin secu- lar powers ruling over specific Greek lands. The Greeks considered the Roman Catholic Church to be distinct from their own, and the discussion here will regard them as separate institutions. The papacy, however, did not consider the Greek Church to be distinct.

    (003/29) San Giovanni in Laterano St. John at the Lateran Piazza di San Giovanni Laterano (003/29) The official name is Archbasilica of the Most Holy Saviour and Sts. John the Baptist and the Evangelist at the Lateran, Cathedral of Rome, Mother and Head of all churches (003/29) History: On the façade, an inscription proclaims that this is SACROSANCTA LATERANENSIS ECCLESIA OMNIUM URBIS ET ORBIS ECCLESIARUM MATER ET CAPUT, "The Most Holy Lateran Church, Mother and Mistress of all churches of the city and the World". It is the first cathedral of Rome, where Emperor Constantine allowed the Pope to set up the episcopal chair after 312. The first mention in ancient sources is from 313, when a consistory of bishops was held in domum Faustae in Laterano. This refers to Fausta, Constantine's second wife, who was a convert. It is the first church not only in Rome but in the Christian world. The Popes lived in the Lateran palace until Clement V (1305-1314) transferred the papal seat to Avignon. After the return of the Pope to Rome in 1377, the Vatican palace was chosen as the papal residence. In this area, once stood a palace belonged to the Laterani family. Their house stood near the Basilica, probably towards the current Via Amba Aradam, and covered the entire land area that also includes the current basilica area. According to the "Annals" of Tacitus in 65 A.D. the palace and land was confiscated by the Emperor Nero, as Plautius Lateran, appointed consul for the year 65, conspired against the emperor himself in the conspiracy called the "Pisoni".

  • How the Conflict Between Bernard of Clairvaux’S Cistercian Order and Peter Abelard’S Scholasticism Contributed to the Equating of Jews with Heretics
    ABSTRACT ANDERSON, ROSS MATTHEW. The Effect of Factionalism on Jewish Persecution: How the Conflict between Bernard of Clairvaux’s Cistercian Order and Peter Abelard’s Scholasticism Contributed to the Equating of Jews with Heretics. (Under the direction of Dr. Julie Mell.) The burgeoning antagonism of Western Christians against European Jewry must be understood within the context of the battle between two twelfth-century Christian ideologies. The popular movements of Cistercian apostolicism and Scholasticism’s fixation on rationalism offered feuding epitomes of the ideal ecclesiastic model. The climactic meeting between the spokesmen of both movements (Bernard of Clairvaux and Peter Abelard) reinforced a growing hostility toward those who did not meet the ideal of either movement, especially Jews. Both men contributed to anti-Jewish rhetoric as well as to the growing development of likening heterodoxy with heresy in the twelfth-century Church. As a result, the Jew was increasingly placed within that definition of heresy. Church historians have increasingly studied the works of both Bernard and Abelard to determine the influence each churchman had on anti-Jewish persecution. David Berger’s Persecution, Polemic, and Dialogue: Essays in Jewish-Christian Relations and Abulafia’s Christians and Jews in Dispute are two such works that have respectively argued for the individual culpability of both men in the worsening medieval image of the Jew, but never has a study examined the role that the conflict between the two had on twelfth-century Jews. Lately, individual scholars have independently questioned the role of Jews in the medieval economy, the origins of the Cistercian movement, and the traditional explanation of Bernard’s and Abelard’s conflict at Sens.
