Pope Gregory IX And Judaism
The relations between Gregory IX and Judaism were comparatively good for a medieval pope, since Gregory acted as a political protector to persecuted Jewish communities. However, he also enacted canonical laws that were later criticized for having maintained the Jews' separate status in medieval society. 1233 mandate *6 April 1233 "Mandate, if facts are established, to the archbishops and bishops of France to induce the Christians in their dioceses to stop persecuting the Jews, who had complained to the pope that they were being maltreated and tortured by certain lords, imprisoned and left to die. The Jews are willing to forsake usury. They are to be set free and are not to be injured in person or in property." 1234 decretals In the 1234 Decretals, he invested the doctrine of ''perpetua servitus iudaeorum'' – perpetual servitude of the Jews – with the force of canonical law. According to this, Jews would have to remain in a condition of political servitude and abject humiliation ...

Archbishop-elect Of Bourges

He showed further that Saint Felix, writing with ...

William De Beaumont
William earl of Warwick (before 1140 – 15 November 1184) was an English nobleman. He was married to Matilda de Percy (died 1204), daughter of William de Percy (died 1175) and his first wife Alice of Tonbridge (died 1148). William was the eldest of three sons of Earl Roger of Warwick. On his father's death in 1153, William may have been a minor. His tenure of the earldom was marked by an internal family fight over possession of the marcher lordship of Gower, which was claimed by his uncle Henry supported by his grandmother Margaret, whose dower it was. He experienced financial troubles brought on by considerable debts he incurred in the 1170s. To clear them, he had to surrender Gower to King Henry II before 1184. Earl William may have hoped his great marriage to the wealthy Yorkshire heiress Matilda de Percy would help redeem his fortunes. But Matilda got a lesser share of the Percy lands, and produced no heir for the earldom. She survived her husband by two decades, and ...
