Latin Archbishop Of Patras
The Latin Archbishopric of Patras is the see of Patras in the period in which its incumbents belonged to the Latin or Western Church. This period began in 1205 with the installation in the see of a Catholic archbishop following the Fourth Crusade. The Latin archbishop was the senior-most of the seven ecclesiastic barons of the Principality of Achaea, which comprised the entire Peloponnese. From the late 13th century, the archbishops also purchased the secular Barony of Patras from its holders, becoming the most important vassals of the entire principality. It had five suffragans, Andravida, Amyclae, Modon, Coron, and Cephalonia-Zante. The archbishopric survived as a Latin residential see until 1430, when the city of Patras fell to the Byzantine Greeks of the Despotate of the Morea. From 1475 on, Latin archbishops continued to be appointed, but for them the bishopric was only a titular see. It continues to be included in the Catholic Church's list of such sees, but since t ...

Paolo Foscari
Paolo Foscari was a Venetian noble and churchman, who rose to become Bishop of Castello in 1367–1375, and Latin Archbishop of Patras from 1375 until his death in 1393/4. In the latter capacity he played a leading role in the affairs of the Principality of Achaea. Biography Early life and career He was a son of Giovanni Foscari, a member of the noble Foscari family. Nothing is known about his early life, except that he studied civil and canon law in the University of Padua, where he may also have taught as a professor for a time. He chose an ecclesiastical career, and on 19 August 1365 the Venetian Senate recommended him for the position of Latin Archbishop of Patras in the Morea in southern Greece. The Archbishop of Patras was a powerful figure in Latin Greece: he was not only the pre-eminent Catholic prelate of the Morea, but also, having acquired the secular barony of Patras in and added its 24 fiefs to the Archbishopric's eight, the most important territorial feudatory of th ...

Apostolic Administrator
An Apostolic administration in the Catholic Church is administrated by a prelate appointed by the pope to serve as the ordinary for a specific area. Either the area is not yet a diocese (a stable 'pre-diocesan', usually missionary apostolic administration), or is a diocese, eparchy or similar permanent ordinariate (such as a territorial prelature or a territorial abbacy) that either has no bishop (an apostolic administrator ''sede vacante'', as after an episcopal death or resignation) or, in very rare cases, has an incapacitated bishop (apostolic administrator ''sede plena''). Characteristics Apostolic administrators of stable administrations are equivalent in canon law with diocesan bishops, meaning they have essentially the same authority as a diocesan bishop. This type of apostolic administrator is usually the bishop of a titular see. Administrators ''sede vacante'' or ''sede plena'' only serve in their role until a newly chosen diocesan bishop takes possession of the ...

Latin Patriarch Of Constantinople
The Latin Patriarchate of Constantinople was an office established as a result of the Fourth Crusade and its conquest of Constantinople in 1204. It was a Roman Catholic replacement for the Eastern Orthodox Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople, and remained in the city until the reconquest of Constantinople by the Byzantines in 1261, whereupon it became a titular see. The office was abolished in 1964. History Before the East–West Schism in 1054, the Christian Church within the borders of the ancient Roman Empire was effectively ruled by five patriarchs (the " Pentarchy"): In descending order of precedence: Rome by the Bishop of Rome (who rarely used the title "Patriarch") and those of Constantinople, Alexandria, Antioch, and Jerusalem. In the West the Bishop of Rome was recognized as having superiority over the other Patriarchs, while in the East, the Patriarch of Constantinople gradually came to occupy a leading position. The sees of Rome and Constantinople were often at ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Paul, Latin Patriarch Of Constantinople
Paul (died 1371) was a Roman Catholic bishop from southern Italy who held various episcopal sees in the Latin East, before becoming titular Latin Patriarch of Constantinople. He was engaged in several negotiations for a possible Union of the Churches with the Byzantine Empire. Life Paul's early life is obscure; he hailed from southern Italy, and was Roman Catholic (Latin) bishop of Amisos until 10 July 1345, when he was appointed Latin Archbishop of Smyrna, a town on the Anatolian mainland that had been recently captured from the Aydinid Turks and was still threatened by them. In 1355, following the Ottoman capture of Gallipoli in the previous year, Paul entered into negotiations with the Byzantine emperor, John V Palaiologos, for a rapprochement between Byzantium and the Catholic Church, in exchange for Western military aid. Paul secured considerable concessions from the hard-pressed emperor, including the active promotion of the Latin Church and even the Latin language, t ...

Roger, Archbishop Of Patras
Roger was the Latin Archbishop of Patras and ruler of the Barony of Patras in Frankish Greece from 1337 until ca. 1347. Roger succeeded William Frangipani on the latter's death in 1337. William, an energetic and capable man, had made the See of Patras effectively independent from the Principality of Achaea. Upon his death, and until Roger's arrival from Italy, the ''bailli'' of the Principality, Bertrand of Les Baux, laid siege to Patras hoping to reduce it to obedience. In the event, Pope Benedict XII reacted by declaring the city "land of the Holy Roman Church" and placed the Principality under the interdict. The mother and regent of the Prince, Catherine of Valois, arrived in the Principality herself and confirmed the independence of the Archbishop. This independence was utilized by Roger and his successors, who henceforth played a crucial role in the internal feuds and plots of the Principality. Thus, faced with the repeatedly manifest inability of the Naples-based Angevin ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Frangipani entertained close ties to the Republic of Venice—he became a Venetian citizen on 30 January 1336—and in 1321, as the Principality of Achaea was threatened by Byzantine advances under Andronikos Asen, headed an unsuccessful movement to offer the Republic control of what remained of the Principality. Nevertheless, in 1325, he participated along with the other magnates and feudal lords of the Principality in the ceremonial reception of the new Prince, John of Grav ...
