Alonso Manrique De Lara
Alfonso or Alonso Manrique de Lara y Solís ( Segura de León, Badajoz, 1476 – Seville, 28 September 1538) was a Spanish churchman. Biography Manrique was born in Segura de León in Badajoz, apparently a son from the third marriage of the famous Rodrigo Manrique de Lara with a Solís-Castañeda woman (1404 – Ocaña, 1476), being therefore a very young stepbrother of the poet Jorge Manrique de Lara (circa 1440 – 1479, died besieging the castle of Garcimuñoz). Jerónimo Manrique de Lara was his son. He was Bishop of Badajoz (September 1499 until before 1516), Bishop of Córdoba (August 1516 – 1523) and Archbishop of Seville (from August 1523).

Segura De León
Segura de León is a Spanish municipality in the province of Badajoz, Extremadura. It has a population of 2,170 (2007) and an area of 106 km2. It belongs to the ''comarca'' of Tentudía. History Ferdinand III tasked the Knights of the Order of Santiago with reinforcing the land forces of the amphibious siege on Seville, so the territory around Montemolín including Segura was conquered by the knights towards 1246–1248 as part of the operations to clean up the rearguard in Sierra Morena. Paio Peres Correia, Master of the Order of Santiago, granted Segura a ''fuero'' (copied from that of Sepúlveda) on 26 March 1274, thus Segura segregated from the ''encomienda'' of Montemolín and became a standalone town.

16th-century Spanish Cardinals
The 16th century began with the Julian calendar, Julian year 1501 (represented by the Roman numerals MDI) and ended with either the Julian or the Gregorian calendar, Gregorian year 1600 (MDC), depending on the reckoning used (the Gregorian calendar introduced a lapse of 10 days in October 1582). The Renaissance in Italy and Europe saw the emergence of important artists, authors and scientists, and led to the foundation of important subjects which include accounting and political science. Copernicus proposed the Copernican heliocentrism, heliocentric universe, which was met with strong resistance, and Tycho Brahe refuted the theory of celestial spheres through observational measurement of the SN 1572, 1572 appearance of a Milky Way supernova. These events directly challenged the long-held notion of an immutable universe supported by Ptolemy and Aristotle, and led to major revolutions in astronomy and science. Galileo Galilei became a champion of the new sciences, invented the first ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Grand Inquisitor
Grand Inquisitor (, literally ''Inquisitor General'' or ''General Inquisitor'') was the highest-ranked official of the Inquisition. The title usually refers to the inquisitor of the Spanish Inquisition, in charge of appeals and cases of aristocratic importance, even after the reunification of the inquisitions. Secretaries-general of the Roman Inquisition were often styled as ''Grand Inquisitor'' but the role and functions were different. The Portuguese Inquisition was headed by a Grand Inquisitor, or General Inquisitor, named by the Pope but selected by the king, always from within the royal family. The most famous Inquisitor General was the Spanish Dominican Tomás de Torquemada, who spearheaded the Spanish Inquisition.

Catholic-Hierarchy
''Catholic-Hierarchy.org'' is an online database of bishops and dioceses of the Latin Church and the 23 Eastern Catholic Churches that are in full communion with Rome. The website, not officially sanctioned by the Church, is run as a private project by David M. Cheney in Kansas City. Origin and contents In the 1990s, David M. Cheney created a simple internet website that documented the Catholic bishops in his home state of Texas—many of whom did not have webpages. In 2002, after moving to the Midwest, he officially created the present website catholic-hierarchy.org and expanded to cover the United States and eventually the world. The database contains geographical, organizational and address information on each Catholic diocese in the world, including Eastern Catholic Churches in full communion with the Holy See, such as the Maronite Catholic Church and the Syro-Malabar Church. It also gives biographical information on current and previous bishops of each diocese, such as d ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
San Callisto
San Callisto (, ) is a Roman Catholic titular church in Rome, Italy, built over the site of Pope Callixtus I's martyrdom (c. AD 222). History The original building dates from the time of Pope Gregory III (r. 731–741), who ordered the building of a church on the site. The church has been rebuilt twice since, first in the twelfth century, and the current church restored in 1610 by Orazio Torriani for the Benedictine monks of Montecassino. In January 2017, in response to Pope Francis's call for an increase in aid to the homeless, especially during the cold winter weather, the Community of Sant'Egidio opened San Callisto as an overnight shelter, with a hot meal available at a nearby cafeteria. Established in 1517, the ''Titulus San Calixti'' is currently held by Willem Jacobus Cardinal Eijk. GCatholic.org [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
