Atenulf (abbot Of Montecassino)
Atenulf (died 30 March 1022) was the Abbot of Montecassino from 1011 until his death. He was a cousin of Prince Pandulf II of Capua, a younger son of Prince Pandulf III and brother of Prince Pandulf IV. Abbacy In 999, Atenulf was given as a hostage to Duke Ademar of Spoleto after the latter raided the Principality of Capua on behalf of the Emperor Otto III. Ademar sent his hostage back to Germany. Atenulf's stay in Germany seems to have left an impression: German architectural influence is evident in the buildings he erected while abbot. He was elected abbot in 1011, and in 1014 he received a diploma from the recently-crowned Emperor Henry II. On 13 March 1014, he received a privilege listing the lands of Montecassino from Pope Benedict VIII. On 5 May 1017, Princes Pandulf II and Pandulf IV granted the "church, fortified villa and castle" (''ecclesia et castrum et oppidum'') of Civita di Sant'Urbano to Atenulf. On 10 May, they granted the land, mountain and church of Sant'Ang ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Atenulf I Of Gaeta
Atenulf I (died 2 February 1062) was the Lombard count of Aquino who rose to become Duke of Gaeta in Southern Italy during the chaotic middle of the eleventh century. Atenulf married the ''senatrix'' Maria, daughter of Pandulf IV of Capua, and his brother Lando married another daughter of Pandulf. After the death of Ranulf Drengot, Count of Aversa, in June 1045, his cousin Asclettin succeeded in Aversa, but the Gaetans elected the Lombard Atenulf as their duke. Guaimar IV of Salerno, the suzerain of both Aversa and Gaeta, intervened on Asclettin's behalf and he defeated Atenulf in battle and took him prisoner. At this time, however, Pandulf, the natural ally of Atenulf, was assaulting the lands of the abbey of Monte Cassino with Lando. Lando captured the abbot Richer and in return for the abbot's freedom and his assistance in battling Pandulf, Atenulf was freed and recognised in possession of Gaeta. In Fall 1058, Atenulf's eldest son, who was betrothed to a daughter of Richard ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Atenulf III Of Benevento
Atenulf III, called Atenulf of Carinola, was the co-prince of Capua and Benevento from 933, when his father, Landulf I, and uncle, Atenulf II, made him so. His younger brother Landulf the Red succeeded co-prince Atenulf in 939 or 940. When the elder Landulf died on 10 April 943, the younger Landulf removed his elder brother Atenulf to Benevento and his uncle Atenulf's son Landulf to Capua. Fearing for their lives, the two fled to Guaimar II of Salerno and Landulf the Red became sole prince. Atenulf III married Rotilda, daughter of Guaimar II as his first wife. It was a diplomatic marriage. Sources *Caravale, Mario (ed). ''Dizionario Biografico degli Italiani: IV Arconati – Bacaredda''.

Atenulf I Of Benevento
Atenulf I (died 910), called the Great (Latin ''magnus''), was the prince of Capua from 7 January 887 and of Benevento from 899, when he conquered that principality. He also used the title ''princeps gentis Langobardorum'': "prince of the Lombard people," an echo of the title used by the earliest prince of Benevento following the collapse of Lombard cohesion in 774. The son of Landenulf, gastald of Teano, Atenulf, through his influence and conquests, succeeded in vindicating his Lombard family's pretensions to princely status, ''à la'' those of Benevento and Salerno. From 879, Capua had been contested between several candidates, but, by 887, Atenulf had removed his brothers and cousins from contention and become sole prince with the assistance of the '' hypatus'' Athanasius of Naples. In the next year (888), he was at war with Athanasius over "Liburnia." They fought an indecisive battle at S. Carzio on the Clanio. Atenulf then turned his attention to Benevento, which had rec ...

Atenulf II Of Gaeta
Atenulf II (died October 1064) was the duke of Gaeta for a brief two years (1062–1064) under the regency of his mother, Maria. He was the son and successor of Atenulf I, who had been forced to recognise the suzerainty of the prince of Capua, Richard I, and his son Jordan in 1058. Atenulf I died on 2 February and on 1 June, Maria had confirmed a year-long treaty with several neighbouring counties against the dominance of the Normans of Aversa and Capua. During March of the year of peace, Atenulf II remained at Gaeta and on 28 June 1063, Gaeta was captured by Jordan and became a city of the prince of Capua. Atenulf was allowed to maintain possession until the next year, when his mother's new husband, William of Montreuil, was installed as duke. Sources * Norwich, John Julius.

Atenulf II Of Benevento
Atenulf II (also ''Atenolf'', ''Atenolfo'', ''Atinolfo'', ''Adenolfo'', ''Atenulfo'', or ''Adenulfo'') (died 940) was the younger brother of Prince Landulf I of Benevento, who associated him with the government in June 910 or 911 (as their own father, Atenulf I, had associated Landulf a decade earlier). In 909, Landulf went to Constantinople to receive the titles of '' anthypatos'' and ''patrikios'' and Atenulf stayed behind but received like investiture. Atenulf took part in the Battle of Garigliano in 915 and the campaign against the Byzantines in 921 in Apulia, going as far as Ascoli. He continued the war with Byzantium, even calling in Magyar mercenaries under a chieftain named Szovard (Italianised as ''Salardo''). In 929, with Landulf, Guaimar II of Salerno, and Theobald of Spoleto, he invaded Apulia and Calabria again. This time, all were unsuccessful and the old alliance broke up. He died in 940. He was married, although his wife's name is not known, and they had two son ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Atenulf, Brother Of Pandulf III Of Benevento
Atenulf was the son of Prince Landulf V of Benevento Landulf V (died September 1033) was the prince of Benevento from May 987, when he was first associated with his father Pandulf II, to his death. He was chief prince from his father's death in 1014. In 999, Otto III visited the shrine of Saint Mi ... and brother of Prince Pandulf III. In 1040, Benevento still had the prestige of being the first of the independent Lombards, Lombard principalities of the Mezzogiorno. So, when the Lombard Arduin the Lombard, Arduin, ''topoterites'' of Melfi, and his Normans, Norman mercenaries rebelled against Byzantine Empire, Byzantine authority, they elected the son of Pandulf as their leader, calling him "prince of Benevento." After the assassination of the Catapanate of Italy, Catepan Nicephorus Doukeianos, the Normans planned to elect a leader from amongst their own, but William of Apulia notes that Atenulf had "perhaps given them gold or silver and thus led them to renege on a prior agreem ...

Atinolfo
Atinolfo was the Bishop of Fiesole (1038–1057) and an opponent of Papal reform. Onomastics suggest that he was a Lombard originally from southern Italy. Atinolfo was staying in Florence when he was appointed bishop by the Emperor Conrad II in February or March 1038. His predecessor, also an imperial appointee, was Iacopo il Bavaro, was a reformer who restored the diocesan patrimony. Atinolfo appears to have been otherwise. He repossessed the possessions of the diocese which Iacopo had granted to the monastery of San Bartolomeo. As late as July 1039 he was still not consecrated, despite the growing movement within Latin Christendom against that practice. He appears also to have been an imperial partisan, though imperial intervention in ecclesiastical affairs would soon stir up the Investiture Controversy. On 25 October 1046 he attended the Synod of Pavia convoked by the Emperor Henry III. Nonetheless, Atinolfo signed the canons with Gerard, Bishop of Florence, of a Rom ...
