- A «Frenchman» in Portugal: Bishop D. Hugo of Porto and the transformations of the north-western Iberian Peninsula in the early 12th centuryPublication . Renzi, Francesco; Mariani, Andrea; Silva, Maria João Oliveira e; Amaral, Luís CarlosThe aim of this article is to study Bishop of Porto D. Hugo, a key figure to understand the transformation of Portugal in the 12th century. Probably ailing from France, he was archdeacon in Compostela under Diego Gelmírez and consecrated bishop by Maurice of Braga. D. Hugo dealt with the most important problems of his time: the conflict between the See of Compostela and Braga, the political evolution of the County of Portugal and the relations with the Papacy. The study of D. Hugo reveals a very peculiar image of a medieval bishop: clergyman, politician, writer and tireless traveller.
- A medieval “enigma”: about the ecclesiastical trajectory of the Archbishop of Braga and “Antipope” Gregory VIII, Maurice “Bourdin” (11th-12th centuries)Publication . Amaral, Luís Carlos; Renzi, FrancescoThe ecclesiastical and political trajectory of the archbishop of Braga and “antipope” Maurice “Bourdin” had been long and diversified. In the complex context of both the Roman Church’s affirmation among the powers of Medieval Europe and the reorganization of the Hispanic Church, Maurice’s experience represents a paradigmatic case. The study of his career allows us to reflect on the main problems related to the ecclesiastical institutions and the transformations of European society between the end of the 11 th century and the first decades of the 12 th century. In this article, we will analyse two specific aspects. First, we will study Maurice’s trajectory as bishop of Coimbra and archbishop of Braga from 1099 onwards and his relations with the Iberian ecclesiastical powers and the Roman Curia. Second, we will analyse the causes of his “unexpected” 1118-election as “antipope” Gregory VIII, supported by Emperor Henry V, in opposition to the Roman pontiffs Gelasius II and Calixtus II.
