Pope Gregory IX - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In the course of a disputation, Pope Gregory IX ordered the Talmud burned (note a non-heretical book floating above the fire. Gregory IX denounced Frederick II as a heretic and summoned a council at Rome to give point to his anathema, at which Frederick II attempted to capture or sink as many ships carrying prelates to the synod as he could. Gregory IX and Hohenstaufen came to a truce, but when Frederick II defeated the Lombard League in 1239, the possibility that he might dominate all of Italy, surrounding the Papal States, became a very real threat. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Pope_Gregory_IX   (651 words)

inquisition history Pope Gregory IX was opposed to torture, but Innocent IV approved its use for the discovery of heresy, and Urban IV confirmed this usage, which like the death penalty for heresy, had its origin in the Roman Law. Pope Sixtus IV approved the Spanish Inquisition, because he was under the impression that an ecclesiastical Inquisition was to be established; when the true state of the case was brought to his knowledge, it was too late; all that he and his successors could do was to protest against its excesses. He was the first of the Popes, however, to rely extensively upon the secular arm in the repression of heresy and was therefore the first to discover, as one of his biographers remarks, how difficult it is to call back the hounds of violence once they are unleashed. biblia.com /islam/inquisit..htm   (2427 words)

Historical Overview of the Inquisition However, the repression of heresy remained unorganized, and with the large scale heresies in the 11th and 12th centuries, Pope Gregory IX instituted the papal inquisition in 1231 for the apprehension and trial of heretics. Pope Gregory's original intent for the Inquisition was a court of exception to inquire into and glean the beliefs of those differing from Catholic teaching, and to instruct them in the orthodox doctrine. Pope Sixtus tried to establish harmony between the inquisitors and the ordinaries, but was unable to maintain control of the desires of Ki ng Ferdinand V and Queen Isablella. es.rice.edu /newgalileo/lib/student_work/trial96/loftis/overview.html   (852 words)

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Gregory the Great There cannot be the smallest doubt that Gregory claimed for the Apostolic See, and for himself as pope, a primacy not of honor, but of supreme authority over the Church Universal. Gregory's mind and memory were both exceptionally receptive, and it is to the effect produced on him by these disasters that we must attribute the tinge of sadness which pervades his writings and especially his clear expectation of a speedy end to the world. Gregory's father was Gordianus, a wealthy patrician, probably of the famous gens Amicia, who owned large estates in Sicily and a mansion on the Caelian Hill in Rome, the ruins of which, apparently in a wonderful state of preservation, still await excavation beneath the Church of St. Andrew and St. Gregory. www.newadvent.org /cathen/06780a.htm   (7836 words)

Biography – Pope Gregory IX – The Papal Library Pope Gregory addressed this collection to the doctors and scholars of Bologna, by a letter in which he said that he had published in one book the constitutions of his predecessors, previously dispersed through many volumes, and that he had done this to avoid the confusion arising from their resemblance and their apparent contradiction. The pope wrote to Louis IX on the same subject, and the pious king replied that he had given orders that in his kingdom every one should obey the wise and prudent decision of His Holiness. The pope received a letter from Philip, prior of the Dominicans in the Holy Land, in which he said that "the patriarch of the Jacobites, a man venerable for age, knowledge, and virtue, came this year (1237) to pray at Jerusalem, with a numerous attendance of bishops and monks of his nation. www.saint-mike.org /papal-library/GregoryIX/biography.html   (3952 words)

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Pope Gregory IX In order to prove to the Christian world that the pope was too hasty in placing him under the ban, the emperor resolved to proceed to the Holy Land and embarked from Brindial with a small army on 28 June, 1228, having previously asked the blessing of Gregory IX upon his enterprise. Cardinal Otto of San Nicolo, whom Gregory IX had sent to Germany to publish the emperor's excommunication, was entirely unsuccessful, because Frederick's son Henry, his representative in Germany, forbade the bishops and abbots to appear at the synods which the cardinal attempted to convene. Gregory IX distrusted the advances of the emperor, especially since Rainald, the imperial Governor of Spoleto, had invaded the Pontifical States during the emperor's absence. www.newadvent.org /cathen/06796a.htm   (3001 words)

GENUKI: Popes Pope Gregory was pious and charitable; had lofty notions of the papal authority, was a reformer of the clerical discipline, and after his death was canonized. In 1229 Gregory levied a tithe on all moveables in England towards the expenses of his war with Frederick. He is, however, accused, but on slight and doubtful evidence, of burning a multitude of the works of ancient authors, lest attention to heathen literature should supersede the monkish and ecclesiastical studies of the age. www.genuki.org.uk /big/royalty/pope.html   (333 words)

Though Pope John XXIII himself spoke well of Pius IX and reinvigorated the investigation of his possible canonization, [2] the popular portrait of his papacy has him as a diehard reactionary adverse to the modern world. www.catholiceducation.org /links/jump.cgi?ID=1722   (11731 words)

Conquest of Sicily by Anjou French Pope Gregory IX's 1228 invasion was repelled by Frederick during his lifetime, but after Frederick's death Pope Clement IV took a more subtle and indirect approach to unseat Frederick's illegimate son Manfred. The object was to break the perceived encirclement of the Papal States by the Holy Roman Empire and to install a more pliable ruler who would acknowledge the overriding supremacy in the Kingdom of Sicily of the Pope himself. In 1265 Clement declared Charles to be new King of Sicily--but only as a feudal subject of the Pope, of course. www.boglewood.com /sicily/angevins.html   (178 words)
