CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Diocese of Lamego At the instance of Archbishop Peter of Santiago de Compostela, Innocent III, in 1199, re-arranged the Dioceses of Coimbra, Vizeu, Lamego, and Egitania (the present Guarda), allotting the first two to the Archbishopric of Braga and the last two to Santiago de Compostela (Flórez, op. Clement XIV (10 July, 1770) created the Diocese of Pinhel (Pinelensis) in the aforesaid district, which, however, was suppressed by Leo XIII by the Bull "Gravissimum" (30 Sept., 1881), which replaced Lamego under the metropolitan of Braga and gave new limits to the diocese.

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Charles Borromeo Bartholomew of the Martyrs, O.P. Archbishop of Braga, in Portugal. This church had been declared by Clement VII, in 1531, exempt from the jurisdiction of the Archbishop of Milan, provided that the consent of the archbishop was obtained; but this consent had never been obtained, and consequently the exemption did not take effect.

Chapter 8: The Kingdom of León-Castilla under Queen Urraca There she was at first allied with the archbishop of Toledo, whose attempts to assert the power of the primacy over the metropolitan see of Braga and to enforce his legatine power ran parallel to Urraca's own desires to limit and subject the authority of her half sister the Infanta Teresa. Pope Gelasius II wrote to Archbishop Bernard and the other Spanish bishops on March 25, 1118 advising them of the excommunication and deposition of the antipope Maurice and authorizing them to elect a new archbishop for Braga. Although the archbishop of Toledo might have been defeated in determining the bishopric of Ávila, the episcopate in the peninsula could be elaborated in ways advantageous to him as well as to his rival. libro.uca.edu /urraca/urraca8.htm   (526 words)

Chapter 8: Saint James's Catapult In all the five years and more of Honorius II's pontificate the only crumb of consolation that Diego got was the pope's summons of [216] archbishop Paio of Braga to answer for his wrongful consecration of the new bishop of Coimbra. Not long afterwards, probably early in 1091, bishop Pedro of Braga had sought and obtained the restoration of the metropolitan status of his see; and here we should remember that the bishoprics of Galicia were in the province of Braga. Not only was bishop Maurice a protégé of archbishop Bernardo of Toledo, but in addition pope Urban II had in 1088 granted the archbishop of Toledo metropolitan powers over any restored bishopric in Christian Spanish territory whose metropolitan church remained in Islamic hands. libro.uca.edu /sjc/sjc8.htm   (10750 words)

In the first letter the Conde de Tarouca explains to the Archbishop of Santiago why he left the service of the King of Spain for that of the King of Portugal, and urges the Archbishop (who was also Captain-General of the Spanish army in Galicia) to do his best to stop this war between Catholics.

Chapter 13: The Kingdom of León-Castilla Under King Alfonso VI After the close of the council at Nimes Archbishop Bernard took an initiative that was to have the profoundest of effects on the Spanish church of the next half century. Although the archbishop of Toledo had returned to León after the council at Piacenza he was back in the papal presence in the fall at the Council of Clermont. It has been asserted that this bishop sought the recognition of his authority by the bishops of Braga and Orense and that he was opposed to the restoration of Braga to the metropolitanate to which his own see itself had some pretensions. libro.uca.edu /alfonso6/alfonso13.htm   (9217 words)

Europe's 12th-Century Development by Sanderson Beck That year Pope Calixtus confirmed the authority of the see at Braga over Galicia and Portugal, and he recognized Toledo archbishop Bernard (1085-1125) as primate over all Spain except for Braga and Compostela. Galician nobility led by Santiago bishop Diego Gelmirez tried to crown Urraca's son Alfonso Raimundez king of Galicia in 1110, resulting in a civil war, complicated by Henriques's fighting to maintain his rule in Portugal. In 1125 Gelmirez excommunicated a burgher of Compostela and fought a brief war against Fernando Juanes, a partisan of Teresa. www.san.beck.org /AB20-Europe12thCentury.html   (9217 words)

Chapter 5: The Episcopate in the Kingdom of León in the Twelfth Century At Lateran III, in 1179, the archbishop of Santiago de Compostela was present, with two of his suffragans, Sancho of Avila and Pedro of Ciudad Rodrigo; from the province of Braga, Bishop Juan of Lugo and apparently Guillermo of Zamora attended. Cardinal Hyacinth, aged nearly ninety, ascended the papal throne as Celestine III at the end of March 1191, and among the earliest letters he despatched was one to the archbishop of Toledo scolding him for his feeble response to Clement's scheme for peace and urging him to greater efforts. Alexander III was a scrupulous but also a busy man. Heedful of, though perhaps unconvinced by Compostela's argument, he commissioned three bishops as judges-delegate to look into the affair: these were the bishops of Porto, of Avila and of Tarazona, who were suffragans respectively of Braga, Compostela and Toledo. libro.uca.edu /ekl/ekl5.htm   (13471 words)

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Diocese of Zamora (Spain) Eugenius III decided in favour of the Archbishop of Braga; Adrian IV and Alexander III confirmed this decision, notwithstanding the fact that the Archbishop of Santiago had also put forward a claim to jurisdiction. Zamora belonged originally to the Vaccos, but it is doubtful to which of their cities it corresponds (Sentica, Sarabis, Sisapona, Orcelis); most probably it was the ancient capital, Occloduri (Ocellus-Duri. In the Middle Ages, owing to the imperfect knowledge of geography, Zamora was confounded with the ancient Numantia, also situated on the Duero, but at a distance of fifty leagues, and, owing to this confusion, the Diocese of Zamora has been called Numantina in some documents. www.newadvent.org /cathen/15747c.htm   (1542 words)

Chapter 6: Saint James's Catapult Urraca probably kept her Christmas court in Galicia, and the archbishop of Toledo skillfully [137] detached Diego from his flirtation with the archbishop of Braga. Urraca's reign was notable for the number of assemblies which were held in the kingdom of León-Castile at which the principal focus of concern was the restoration of peace and order. Urraca's summer campaign was directed to the recovery from the Aragonese of the important town and fortress of Burgos. libro.uca.edu /sjc/sjc6.htm   (12463 words)
