Wulfar
Wulfar or Wulfaire (died 816) was the archbishop of Reims from 812 until his death. He was an important administrator in the Carolingian Empire, both before and during his episcopate, under the emperors Charlemagne and Louis the Pious. In 802 Wulfar was the royal ''missus dominicus, missus'' (representative) in a ''missaticum'' comprising the southeast of the Archdiocese of Reims, ecclesiastical province of Reims. His term as a ''missus'' is only recorded the ''History of the Church of Reims'' (''Historia Remensis ecclesiae'') of Flodoard (died 966), in a section based on the ''Capitulare missorum specialia'' of 802. The name of Wulfar's lay associate (since ''missi'' always worked in clerical–lay pairs) is unknown. Jacques Stiennon first identified a ''French denier, denier'' from the reign of Charlemagne bearing the inscription FUIFAR as belonging to the ''missaticum'' of Wulfar and recording his name as that of the moneyer in charge. An alternate reading and interpretation of t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
The Testament Of Charlemagne
The Testament of Charlemagne was documented and witnessed in 811, the 43rd year of his reign. Charlemagne had intended to make a last will and testament in order to share his wealth with his daughters and the children of his concubines (his sons mostly inheriting parts of his kingdom). Unfortunately, it was begun too late and was not finished before his death in 814. Nevertheless, three years prior, he made a division of his possessions, ratified in the presence of the faithful who were called upon as witnesses. The text of this testament is quoted from Einhard. Of interest is the list of bishops, abbots and counts called upon to witness this historical event. They include the following: Bishops * Hildebold, Archbishop of Cologne (785–818), administered last sacrament to Charlemagne * Richolf, Archbishop of Mainz (787–813) * Arno, Archbishop of Salzburg (784–821) * Wulfar, Archbishop of Rheims (812–816) * Bernoin, Archbishop of Clermont (811–823) * Leidrad, Archbish ...

Council Of Reims
Reims, located in the north-east of modern France, hosted several councils or synods in the Roman Catholic Church. These councils did not universally represent the church and are not counted among the official ecumenical councils. Early synodal councils of Reims *The first synod, said to have been held at Reims by Archbishop Sonnatius between 624 and 630, is probably identical with that held at Clichy (Clippiacum) in 626 or 627. * In 813 Archbishop Wulfar presided at a synod of reform (Werminghoff in "Mon. Germ. Hist.: Concilia aevi Carol. I", I, Hanover, 1904, 253 sq.).

Polyptych (document)
In medieval history, the Polyptych (or Polyptyque) was a document detailing the lands that a noble owned.

Vulgate Bible
The Vulgate (; also called (Bible in common tongue), ) is a late-4th-century Latin translation of the Bible. The Vulgate is largely the work of Jerome who, in 382, had been commissioned by Pope Damasus I to revise the Gospels used by the Roman Church. Later, on his own initiative, Jerome extended this work of revision and translation to include most of the books of the Bible. The Vulgate became progressively adopted as the Bible text within the Western Church. Over succeeding centuries, it eventually eclipsed the . By the 13th century it had taken over from the former version the designation (the "version commonly used") or for short. The Vulgate also contains some ''Vetus Latina'' translations which Jerome did not work on. The Vulgate was to become the Catholic Church's officially promulgated Latin version of the Bible as the Sixtine Vulgate (1590), then as the Clementine Vulgate (1592), and then as the ''Nova Vulgata'' (1979). The Vulgate is still curren ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Pope Nicholas I
Pope Nicholas I ( la, Nicolaus I; c. 800 – 13 November 867), called Nicholas the Great, was the bishop of Rome and ruler of the Papal States from 24 April 858 until his death. He is remembered as a consolidator of papal authority, exerting decisive influence on the historical development of the papacy and its position among the Christian nations of Western Europe. Nicholas I asserted that the pope should have suzerainty over all Christians, even royalty, in matters of faith and morals. Nicholas refused King Lothair II of Lotharingia's request for an annulment of his marriage to Teutberga. When a council pronounced in favor of annulment, Nicholas I declared the council deposed, its messengers excommunicated, and its decisions invalid. Despite pressure from the Carolingians, who laid siege to Rome, his decision held. During his reign, relations with the Byzantine Empire soured because of his support for Patriarch Ignatios of Constantinople, who had been removed from his post in ...
