Mika The Bearded
Mika the Bearded ( hu, Szakállas Mika, Old East Slavic: ''Mika Bradatyj''; died after 1235) was a Hungarian nobleman at the turn of the 12th and 13th centuries, who served as ''ispán'' of Bihar County three times during the reign of King Andrew II of Hungary. Background The origin of Mika (also Mica, Myke or Michael) is unknown. He is not identical with his namesake contemporary Palatine Mika Ják. A certain Gylianus, son of Bocion, who acted as ''pristaldus'' (bailiff) on his behalf, referred to Mika as his "''contubernarius''", which phrase described the political and social relationship between them, a kind of proto-''familiaritas''. It is possible that Mika originated from a noble family, which possessed landholdings in Bihar County. He owned Jenő (present-day Ineu, Romania) along the northern bank of Sebes-Körös (Crișul Repede) river. He also received the estate Malka in Szatmár County from Drugh (Dorog), the father of Alexander Karászi. Based on the possession hist ...

Cistercians
The Cistercians, () officially the Order of Cistercians ( la, (Sacer) Ordo Cisterciensis, abbreviated as OCist or SOCist), are a Catholic religious order of monks and nuns that branched off from the Benedictines and follow the Rule of Saint Benedict, as well as the contributions of the highly-influential Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, known as the Latin Rule. They are also known as Bernardines, after Saint Bernard himself, or as White Monks, in reference to the colour of the "cuculla" or cowl (choir robe) worn by the Cistercians over their habits, as opposed to the black cowl worn by Benedictines. The term ''Cistercian'' derives from ''Cistercium,'' the Latin name for the locale of Cîteaux, near Dijon in eastern France. It was here that a group of Benedictine monks from the monastery of Molesme founded Cîteaux Abbey in 1098, with the goal of following more closely the Rule of Saint Benedict. The best known of them were Robert of Molesme, Alberic of Cîteaux and the English ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Jus Patronatus
The right of patronage (in Latin ''jus patronatus'' or ''ius patronatus'') in Roman Catholic canon law is a set of rights and obligations of someone, known as the patron in connection with a gift of land (benefice). It is a grant made by the church out of gratitude towards a benefactor. Its counterpart in English law and in the Church of England is called an advowson. The right of patronage is designated in papal letters as ''"ius spirituali annexum"'' and is therefore subject to ecclesiastical legislation and jurisdiction as well as civil laws relating to the ownership of property. Background In the Eastern Catholic Churches, the founder of a church was permitted to nominate an administrator for the temporal goods and indicate to the bishop a cleric suitable for appointment. In the Latin Church, the Synod of Orange in 441 granted a right of "presentation" to a bishop who had built a church in another diocese and the Synod of Toledo in 655 gave a layman this privilege for ea ...
