- 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.
- Monasteri, vescovi e papato nel XII secolo. Il caso dell’esenzione papale di San Salvador di Grijó (1139-1195)Publication . Renzi, Francesco; Mariani, AndreaThis article aims at studying the exemption of the Portuguese monastery of San Salvador of Grijó during the twelfth century. By the analysis of the privileges of Innocent II, Lucius II, Eugene III and Celestine III, we will show on the one hand how the monastery’s exemption was the result of the interaction between the canons of Grijó, the bishops of Porto, Braga, Coimbra and the Papacy. On the other, we will illustrate how the monastery, despite the exemption, remained under the power of order of the diocesan ordinary.
- Sobre as origens da diocese do Porto na Alta Idade Média. Uma reflexão sobre o Parochiale Suevorum e a diocese de Magneto/Meinedo (sécs. VI-VII)Publication . Renzi, Francesco; Mariani, AndreaA historiografia tradicionalmente considerou Magneto/Meinedo como a sede originária da diocese do Porto/Portucale no VI século. Esta conclusão é baseada principalmente em duas fontes: o Parochiale Suevorum e as atas do II Concílio de Braga, onde entre os subscriptores aparece um «Viator Magnetensis ecclesiae episcopus». A análise das fontes, do contexto histórico e das cronologias mostra, contudo, um panorama mais complexo e muito contraditório. Neste trabalho tentaremos examinar as várias interpretações avançadas pela historiografia e propor uma reflexão sobre o Parochiale Suevorum e as relações entre Meinedo e Porto entre a Tardo-Antiguidade e a Alta Idade Média. Para alcançar estes objetivos vamos primeiro apresentar os dados da historiografia sobre este tema, e num segundo momento analisaremos comparativamente as informações contidas nas fontes e nos materiais arqueológicos. Por último, avançaremos algumas possíveis hipóteses para interpretar a eventual ligação entre as duas dioceses.
- The bishops of Porto between 1138 and 1189: patrimonial politics and relations with royal and papal powersPublication .
