Archdeacon Of Dorset
The Archdeacon of Dorset is a senior ecclesiastical officer within the Diocese of Salisbury, England. He or she is responsible for the disciplinary supervision of the clergy within the four area deaneries: Purbeck, Poole, Wimborne, and Milton & Blandford. History The role of archdeacons within the diocese of Salisbury originated around the time of the Norman Conquest; the first recorded archdeacon titled ''Archdeacon of Dorset'' occurs as an officer of that diocese from the mid-12th century. The archdeaconry was transferred to the diocese of Bristol upon its creation on 4 June 1542, and later returned to Salisbury diocese by Order in Council on 7 October 1836. In 1916, the Archdeaconry of Sherborne was created, which was divided out of the historic archdeaconry of Dorset. The post is currently held by Antony MacRow-Wood.

Giordano Pironti
Giordano Pironti dei Conti di Terracina (born Terracina, ca. 1210; died in Viterbo, 1 October 1269) was an Italian aristocrat, papal bureaucrat, and Roman Catholic Cardinal. His family included a brother, Pietro, and three nephews, Pietro, Giovanni and Paolo. On 12 June 1256, a document is signed by Pironti as ''Magister'', ''Subdiaconus'' and ''Notarius''. Joachim Johrendt labels it as 'unsicher' ('uncertain') whether Giordano Pironti was a Canon of the Vatican Basilica before he became a cardinal. It is pointed out that in his Testament Cardinal Pironti left a legacy to the Basilica, and that persons who held his office as Vice-Chancellor sometimes were also Canons of the Vatican Basilica. This is very thin material indeed. The canonry is more 'imaginary' than 'uncertain'. From 1257 (at some point between March and June) to 1262 he was Vice-Chancellor of the Holy Roman Church. He was named a Cardinal by Pope Urban IV in the Consistory of 22 May 1262, and was assigned the De ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
