 Milton V. Anastos - 18. Emperor Leo VI's fourth marriage   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The Patriarch Nicholas agreed to baptize the young prince (January 6, 906), but only on the condition that Leo separate himself from the child's mother.
But, within the Byzantine Church, the privilege accorded Leo VI was deemed to have been altogether exceptional, and was so described by the Constantinopolitan Council of 920, which settled this question and reconciled Nicholas and his followers with their opponents, Euthymius and Archbishop Arethas of Caesarea, the latter's staunchest supporter.
In Byzantium, clerical dissidents were always helpless against the emperor, and if Nicholas had retained Leo's favour, he could have ignored such protests (which Jenkins proves to have been hypocritical), and removed his opponents from their see.

 Byzantium And The Roman Primacy   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The Council condemned Nicholas I for his neglect of the customs of the Byzantine Church and for his direct interference in an internal affair which the Patriarch and his Bishops regarded as unjustified.
Actually, the Emperor’s appeal to Rome, when Patriarch Nicholas Mysticus refused to allow his marriage, must be interpreted in this light, although it was ignored by the Patriarch and his followers.
The request of Emperor Romanus I Lecapenus for confirmation from Rome of the election of his young son Theophylactus to patriarchal dignity was a feeble reflection of a principle which had been more readily recognized by the Byzantines in the ninth century.

 Assembly of Turkish American Associations   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
In a letter addressed to the archbishop of Cherson in, apparently, late 920 Nicholas [Patriarch of Constantinople -- K.B.] praised him for 'your zeal on behalf of that deluded nation [the Khazars], so nearly ravished from the bosom of piety by the evil demon'.
He urges him on 'so that their fellowship with Christ our God and their salvation may finally be re-established' and asks him to nominate 'the archbishop (archiereus) who is to reside among them'.
It seems, then, that the Khazars' conversion dealt a spectacular blow to the Byzantine Establishment's ambitions for the north-east of the Black Sea, but that for some time Byzantine Church leaders retained hopes of regaining lost ground in that 'deluded nation'." He adds the remark on page 29 that Nicholas' "words...

The patriarch, Nicholas Mysticus, appeased Simeon for a time, but it was Romanus Lecapenus who, by patience and diplomacy, undermined the power of the Bulgars and thwarted Simeon's ambitions.
Simeon died in 927, and his son Peter I came to terms with Byzantium and married a granddaughter of Romanus.

 Catholic Community Forum Discussion Groups - View Single Post - Do we have to abstain from meat on Friday?
When the Byzantine emperor Leo VI, lacking a male heir, married for a fourth time (906) and found himself banned by Patriarch Nicholas I Mysticus, he had recourse to Sergius III {120th P.} in Rome and the great oriental patriarchs.
The envoys whom Sergius sent to Constantinople, disregarding the greater strictness of eastern canon law and its antipathy to tetragamy, gave a verdict approving Leo's 4th marriage, with the result that Nicholas was deposed and exiled and the eastern church entered on a period of confusion and controversy.
Against a thousand year old tradition, St Gregory VII {155th P.} made all bishops take a personal oath of loyalty to him.
