Gauzlin I Of Maine
Gauzlin I of Maine was a lord of Maine in the beginning of the 9th century. He was the oldest known ancestor of the Rorgonid family. On onomastic considerations, he could be a descendant of the 8th-century Duke of Maine, Charivius. He is named in a document as being in the Spanish March on 2 April 812 with Charlemagne at a meeting of the Counts.Christian Settipani, "Les origines des comtes de Nevers" in ''Onomastique et Parenté dans l'Occident médiéval'', Oxford, Linacre College, Unit for Prosopographical Research, series ''Prosopographica and Genealogica / 3'', 2000, 310 p. (), pp. 85–112 He is also known from a charter on 1 March 839 signed by his son Rorgon sent to the Abbey of Saint-Maur de Glanfeuil. In it, Rorgon names his family there: ''"My father Gauzlin and my mother Adeltrudis, and my brother Gauzbert."'' He married Adeltrude of Bourges, daughter of the Count of Bourges. Their children were: *Rorgon I, Count of Maine (d. 839) *Gauzbert, Count of Maine Gau ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Rorgonids
The Rorgonids were a powerful Frankish family dating from the eighth century. They are sometimes referred to as the first Mayennaise dynasty, referring to the city of Mayenne, and are the original counts of Maine. The Rorgonids were named after Rorgon I, Count of Maine, who was the progenitor of the dynasty. His son, Gauzfrid, Count of Maine, was the first to hold power in the Norman March of Neustria. The Rorgonids controlled the County of Maine throughout the ninth century. The Rorgonids and the Widonids competed for control of the Breton March through much of that time. The first known ruler of Maine (called the Duke of Maine) was Charivius, who is conjectured by Christian Settipani to be the brother or nephew of Lambert, Count of Hesbaye. Further, Settipani identifies Charivius as a direct ancestor of the Rorgonids. Charivius was displaced as ruler of Maine by the Carolinians in 748, with his dynasty restored in 832. The House of Châteaudun descended from Gauzfred I (o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Joscelin (bishop Of Paris)
Joscelin, Goslin, or Gauzlin (died 16 April 886), Bishop of Paris and defender of the city against the Northmen (885), was, according to some authorities, the son of Rorgon I, count of Maine, according to others the natural son of the emperor Louis I. In 848 he became a monk, and entered a monastery at Reims, later he became abbot of Saint-Denis. Like most of the prelates of his time he took a prominent part in the struggle against the Northmen, by whom he and his brother Louis were taken prisoners (858), and he was released only after paying a heavy ransom (''Prudentii Trecensis episcopi Annales'', ann. 858). From 855 to 867 he held intermittently, and from 867 to 881 regularly, the office of chancellor to Charles the Bald and his successors. In 883 or 884 he was elected bishop of Paris, and foreseeing the dangers to which the city was to be exposed from the attacks of the Northmen, he planned and directed the strengthening of the defences, though he also relied for security on ...

The See, therefore, must have been founded about the middle of the fourth century. In 1179, Hugh III, Duke of Burgundy gave the city of Langres to his uncle, Gautier of Burgundy, ...

Gauzelin Of Toul
Gauzelin (died 7 September 962) was a French Roman Catholic prelate who served as the Bishop of Toul from 922 until his death. He has been named as a saint. Life Gauzelin was born to noble Frankish parents. He first served as part of notaries in the French kingdom from 913 to circa 919 which later led to King Charles naming him as the Bishop of Toul; Pope John X confirmed the appointment and he received his episcopal consecration on 17 March 922 from Ruotger. Gauzelin promoted discipline for the monasteries and for diocesan priests and tried to defend the church against secular threats. The damage from the Danish and Hungarian invasions saw him become a reforming bishop in his diocese as well as the founder of a number of monasteries. These new monasteries included one at Bouxières-aux-Dames (built c. 935–936) which became associated with his noble household and where he was later buried. Death Bishop Gauzelin died on 7 September 962. There is a cathedral A cathedr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Archbishop Of Bourges
In Christian denominations, an archbishop is a bishop of higher rank or office. In most cases, such as the Catholic Church, there are many archbishops who either have jurisdiction over an ecclesiastical province in addition to their own archdiocese ( with some exceptions), or are otherwise granted a titular archbishopric. In others, such as the Lutheran Church of Sweden, the title is only borne by the leader of the denomination. Etymology The word ''archbishop'' () comes via the Latin . This in turn comes from the Greek , which has as components the etymons -, meaning 'chief', , 'over', and , 'guardian, watcher'. Early history The earliest appearance of neither the title nor the role can be traced. The title of "metropolitan" was apparently well known by the 4th century, when there are references in the canons of the First Council of Nicæa of 325 and Council of Antioch of 341, though the term seems to be used generally for all higher ranks of bishop, including patriarchs. ...
