| ARTICLES RELATED TO Pope Leo IV | | | |  Pope Leo IV: Encyclopedia II - Alfred the Great - Appearance in CultureIn honour of Alfred, the University of Liverpool now has a King Alfred Chair of English Literature.
Thomas Augustine Arne's Masque of Alfred (known for "Rule Britannia") was a masque about Alfred the Great (first public performance: 1745).
G K Chesterton's poetical epic The Ballad of the White Horse describes Alfred uniting the fragmented Kingdoms of Britain to chase the northern invaders away from the island. Like Shakespeare's Henry V, it deals with the theme of a divinely oriented leader waging phy ...

| | | | | Pope Leo IV: Encyclopedia II - Alfred the Great - Childhood Alfred was born sometime between 847 and AD 849 at Wantage in Berkshire, the fourth son of King Ethelwulf of Wessex (Æþelwulf), most likely by his first wife, Osburh. He succeeded his brother, Ethelred I (Æþelræd I), as King of Wessex and Mercia in 871.
He seems to have been a child of singular attractiveness and promise, and tales of his boyhood were remembered. At five years old, in 853, he is said to have been sent to Rome, where he was confirmed by Pope Leo IV, who is also said to have "anointed him as king." Later writers to ...

| | | | | Pope Leo IV: Encyclopedia II - Anastasius Bibliothecarius - Continued influence The successor of Adrian II, Pope John VIII (872-882), also esteemed Anastasius, confirmed him in the office of librarian, entrusted important affairs to him, and encouraged him to further literary work.
Anastasius was in correspondence with the deposed Byzantine patriarch, Photius, and sought to mediate between the patriarch and the pope and also to assuage the controversy over the Holy Ghost by assuming that the Latins understood the procession (processio) of ...

| | | | | Pope Leo IV: Encyclopedia II - Italy in the Middle Ages - Goths Byzantines Lombards 6th-8th centuries Italy was invaded by the Visigoths in the 5th century, and Rome was sacked by Alaric in 410. By the end of the century the peninsula was mostly under Ostrogothic control, and the last Western Roman emperor, Romulus Augustus, was deposed in 476 by Odoacer. On February 25, 493 Theodoric the Great defeated Odoacer and became the king of the Ostrogoths and moved the capital to Ravenna.
The eastern half of the Empire, now centred on Constantinople, invaded Italy in the early 6th century, and the generals of emperor Justinian, Belisar ...

| | | | | Pope Leo IV: Encyclopedia II - Pope Joan - Analysis Most scholars dismiss Pope Joan as the medieval equivalent of an urban legend (see U.S. News & World Report July 24, 2000). The Oxford Dictionary of Popes (1988, ISBN 0192820850) acknowledges that this legend was widely believed for centuries, even among Catholic circles, but declares that there is "no contemporary evidence for a female pope at any of the dates suggested for her reign," and goes on to say that "the known facts of the respective periods make it impossible ...

| | | | | Pope Leo IV: Encyclopedia II - Alfred the Great - Christianity literature and music The history of the church under Alfred is most obscure. The Danish inroads had told heavily upon it; the monasteries had been special points of attack, and though Alfred founded two or three monasteries and imported foreign monks, there was no general revival of monasticism under him.
To the ruin of learning and education wrought by the Danes, and the practical extinction of the knowledge of Latin even among the clergy, the preface to Alfred's translation into Old English of Pope Gregory's Pastoral Care bears eloquent witness. ...

| | | | | Pope Leo IV: Encyclopedia II - St. Peter's Basilica - Miscellaneous Despite a frequent confusion due to the similar names, the church of San Pietro in Vincoli (famous for hosting the precious Michelangelo's "Moses") is a different church, situated on the other side of the Tiber river.
The Guinness Book of Records currently lists Basilica of Our Lady of Peace of Yamoussoukro - which was largely inspired by St. Peter's Basilica - as the largest church, surpassing St. Peter's when it was completed in 1989. The validity of this, however, continues to be debated. However, you can fit the St ...

| | | | | Pope Leo IV: Encyclopedia II - Pope Joan - Related Issues The thrones with holes in them at St John Lateran's did indeed exist. In fact, one is still in the Vatican Museums today, and it does indeed have a hole in the seat. The reason for the hole is disputed, but as both the seats and their holes predated the Pope Joan story, and indeed Catholicism by centuries, they clearly have nothing to do with a need to check the sex of a pope. It has been speculated that they originally were Roman bidets or imperial birthing stools, which because of their age and imperial links were used in ceremonies by popes intent on highlighting their own imperial claims (as they did also with ...

| | | | | Pope Leo IV: Encyclopedia II - St. Peter's Basilica - History The current location is probably the site of the Circus of Nero, where Saint Peter was buried upon dying on an inverted cross (tradition states Saint Peter was crucified at the site of the Tempietto) in AD 64. After Constantine I officially recognised Christianity, he started construction in 324 of a great basilica in this exact spot, which had previously been a cemetery for pagans as well as Christians.
In 846, Muslim Arabs looted all the gold and silver that Pope Hadrian I had decorated the basilica with: silver plates on the floors ...

| | | | | Pope Leo IV: Encyclopedia II - Anastasius Bibliothecarius - Envoy to Constantinople In 869 he was sent by Louis II, Holy Roman Emperor as envoy to Constantinople, with two men of high rank in the Frankish Empire, to negotiate a marriage between Leo VI, oldest son of the Byzantine emperor Basil I , and the daughter of the Holy Roman Emperor.
When the envoys arrived at Constantinople, the Eighth Ecumenical Council was still in session, and Anastasius, who attended the last session (February, 870), zealously ...
