 |  |  | 152 BC: Encyclopedia II - Emperor Jing of Han - The Rebellion of the Seven StatesThe issue of dealing with powerful princes would soon erupt into a war later known as the Rebellion of the Seven States. Emperor Jing already had an inimical relationship with his cousin-once-removed (the nephew of his grandfather Emperor Gao) Liu Pi (劉濞), the prince of the wealthy Principality of Wu (modern southern Jiangsu, northern Zhejiang, southern Anhui, and northern Jiangxi), which enjoyed, among other natural resources, abundant copper and salt supplies. While Emperor Jing was crown prince, Liu Pi's heir apparent Liu Xian (劉賢 ...

 |  |  | 152 BC: Encyclopedia II - Emperor Jing of Han - Early life and career as crown princeEmperor Jing was born to Emperor Wen, then Prince of Dai, and Consort Dou, one of his favorite consorts, in 188 BC. He was his father's oldest son. After his father became emperor in 180 BC, then-Prince Qi was created crown prince in 179 BC. At the same time, his mother was created empress.
In his childhood as crown prince, Prince Qi was praised for being compassionate. He was deeply influenced by his mother Empress Dou, who was a Taoist and required all of her children and grandchildren to study Taoist doctrines. He also developed deep bonds with his older sister Princess Liu Piao (åŠ ...

 |  |  | 152 BC: Encyclopedia II - Emperor Jing of Han - Early reignEmperor Jing largely continued his father's policy of non-interference with the people and reduction of tax and other burdens. He continued his policy of reducing criminal penalties, and in 156 BC, in reaction to the reality that his father's abolition of corporal punishments of cutting off nose and feet were in fact causing more people to die from whipping, reduced the number of whips that criminals would receive. (He would later reduce the penalty again in 144 BC.) He also continued his father's policy of heqin (marriage treaties) with Xio ...

 |  |  | 152 BC: Encyclopedia II - Emperor Jing of Han - Middle reign and succession issuesIn 153 BC, because Empress Bo did not have a son, Emperor Jing created his oldest son Liu Rong (劉榮) crown prince. This made Liu Rong's mother, Consort Li (æ —å§¬), who was one of Emperor Jing's favorite concubines, extremely arrogant. She also thought she would be created empress, particularly after Empress Bo was deposed in 151 BC, following Grand Empress Dowager Bo's death. She hated Emperor Jing's sister Princess Liu Piao, because Princess Piao had often given her brother beautiful women as concubines, drawing Consort Li's jealousy. When Princess Piao wanted to end this dispute by giving h ...

 |  |  | 152 BC: Encyclopedia II - Emperor Jing of Han - Late reignThe late reign of Emperor Jing was marked by an incident for which he was much criticized -- the death of Zhou Yafu, who had been instrumental in the victory against the Seven States. Zhou, later as prime minister, offended virtually every powerful figure around Emperor Jing -- his brother Prince Liu Wu and his mother Empress Dowager Dou (for refusing to save Liang first when Liang was seiged by Wu and Chu forces), and his wife Empress Wang and her brother Wang Xin (王信), whom Emperor Jing wanted to create a marquess but whose candidacy w ...

Pontifex Maximus - Christian usage.
In Christian circles, when Tertullian furiously applied the term to Pope Callixtus I, with whom he was at odds, ca 220, over Callistus' relaxation of the Church's penitential discipline, allowing repentant adulterers and fornicators back into the Church, under his Petrine authority to "bind and loosen," it was in bitter irony:
"In opposition to this [modesty], could I not have acted the dissembler? I hear that there has even been an edict sent forth, and a p ...
