Bishop Of Gurk
The Bishop of Gurk is the head of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Gurk, which was established in 1072 as the first suffragan bishop by Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Salzburg, Archbishop Gebhard of Salzburg in the Duchy of Carinthia.

They were elevated to the rank of prince-bishops by Emperor Frederick III, Holy Roman Emperor, Frederick III in 1460, however, this title remained honorific and did not involve any Imperial immediacy, immediate statehood. In the course of the Josephinism, Josephinist reforms in 1783, the bishops' see was relocated to the Carinthian capital Klagenfurt and the diocese significantly enlarged. The following men have held the episcopate: List of Bishops Bishops of Gurk (until 1460) * Günther von Krappfeld (1072 - 1090) * Berthold von Zeltschach (1090 - 1106) * Hiltebold (1106 - 1131) * Roman I (1131 - 1167) * Heinrich I ...

The Archbishop of Salzburg had the power to ordain and consecrate the Bishop of Gurk; a power Tarnóczy exercised when he consecra ...

Adalbert Lidmansky
Adalbert is a German given name which means "noble bright" or "noble shining", derived from the words ''adal'' (meaning noble) and ''berht'' (shining or bright). Alternative spellings include Adelbart, Adelbert and Adalberto. Derivative names include Albert and Elbert. Because St Adalbert of Prague (†997), early mediaeval missionary who became Czech, Polish and Hungarian patron saint, at his confirmation changed his name from native Vojtěch to Adalbert, this Germanic name has been artificially assigned to Slavonic Vojtěch/ Wojciech ("he who is happy in battle") and via the same process have been the names Vojtěch and Adalbert connected with Hungarian name Béla (maybe "inner part") – so, in Central European settings these three names are taken as the equivalents, although they haven't any linguistic connection to each other.
