Íñigo Navarro
Íñigo Navarro (died 1158/9) was the Bishop of Coria from 1142 to 1151 and thereafter the Bishop of Salamanca until his death. The main source for his early life is a single document from Segovia dated 1148. From this it is known that he held the title of ''magister'' and was an Augustinian canon at Segovia before he was a bishop. He probably hailed from Navarre, as did many of the '' repobladores'' of the region of Segovia and Ávila.Fletcher, 31–32. At some point, "willing to lead a stricter life", he founded a religious community at Párraces, probably composed of fellow Augustinians. There had been no bishop at Coria since 902 when, after re-conquering the city in June 1142 Alfonso VII of León re-established the diocese and appointed a bishop. Navarro was referred to as ''novo ordinato'' (newly ordained) in a royal document issued 30 August. The '' Chronica Adefonsi imperatoris'', in relating the conquest of Coria, notes that "a church was dedicated there in honor of S ...

Bishop Of Coria
A bishop is an ordained clergy member who is entrusted with a position of authority and oversight in a religious institution. In Christianity, bishops are normally responsible for the governance of dioceses. The role or office of bishop is called episcopacy. Organizationally, several Christian denominations utilize ecclesiastical structures that call for the position of bishops, while other denominations have dispensed with this office, seeing it as a symbol of power. Bishops have also exercised political authority. Traditionally, bishops claim apostolic succession, a direct historical lineage dating back to the original Twelve Apostles or Saint Paul. The bishops are by doctrine understood as those who possess the full priesthood given by Jesus Christ, and therefore may ordain other clergy, including other bishops. A person ordained as a deacon, priest (i.e. presbyter), and then bishop is understood to hold the fullness of the ministerial priesthood, given responsibility by ...

Pope Eugenius III
Pope Eugene III ( la, Eugenius III; c. 1080 – 8 July 1153), born Bernardo Pignatelli, or possibly Paganelli, called Bernardo da Pisa, was head of the Catholic Church and ruler of the Papal States from 15 February 1145 to his death in 1153. He was the first Cistercian to become pope. In response to the fall of Edessa to the Muslims in 1144, Eugene proclaimed the Second Crusade. The crusade failed to recapture Edessa, which was the first of many failures by the Christians in the crusades to recapture lands won in the First Crusade. He was beatified in 1872 by Pope Pius IX. Early life Bernardo was born in the vicinity of Pisa. Little is known about his origins and family except that he was son of a certain Godius. From the 16th century he is commonly identified as member of the family of Paganelli di Montemagno, which belonged to the Pisan aristocracy, but this has not been proven and contradicts earlier testimonies that suggest he was a man of rather humble origins. In 1106 he wa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
