Pope Alexander II ( 21 April 1073), born Anselm of Baggio ((イタリア語:Anselmo da Baggio)),〔Cardini, Franco, ''Europe and Islam'', (Blackwell Publishers Ltd., 1999), 40.〕 was bishop of Lucca and then pope from 30 September 1061 to his death in 1073. ==Life== He was born in Milan of a noble family.〔(Loughlin, James. "Pope Alexander II." The Catholic Encyclopedia. Vol. 1. New York: Robert Appleton Company, 1907. 1 Aug. 2014 )〕 As bishop of Lucca, he had been an energetic coadjutor with Hildebrand of Sovana in endeavouring to suppress simony and enforce the clerical celibacy. (In this role, he is sometimes known as or to distinguish him from his nephew St Anselm who succeeded to his office.) The papal election of 1061, which Hildebrand had arranged in conformity with the papal decree of 1059 (see Pope Nicholas II), was not sanctioned by the imperial court of Germany. True to the practice observed in preceding papal elections, the German court nominated another candidate, Cadalus, bishop of Parma, who was proclaimed Pope at the council of Basel under the name of Honorius II. He marched to Rome and for a long time threatened his rival's position. At length, however, Honorius was forsaken by the German court and deposed by a council held at Mantua; Alexander II's position remained unchallenged. In 1065, Pope Alexander II wrote to Béranger, Viscount of Narbonne, and to Guifred, bishop of the city, praising them for having prevented the massacre of the Jews in their district, and reminding them that God does not approve of the shedding of blood. That same year, he admonished Landulf VI of Benevento "that the conversion of Jews is not to be obtained by force."〔Simonsohn, pp 35–37.〕 Also in the same year, Alexander called for a crusade against the Moors in Spain.〔Jonathan P. Phillips, ''The Second Crusade: Extending the Frontiers of Christendom'', (St. Edmundsbury Press Ltd., 2007), 246.〕〔Lee Hoinacki, ''El CaminoJonathan P. Phillips, ''The Second Crusade: Walking to Santiago de Compostela'', (Penn State University Press, 1996), 101.〕 In 1066, he entertained an embassy from William, duke of Normandy, after his successful invasion of Brittany. The embassy had been sent to obtain his blessing for William's prospective invasion of Anglo-Saxon England. Alexander gave it, along with a papal ring, the Standard of St. George,〔Houts, Elisabeth M. C. Van, ''The Normans in Europe'', (Manchester University Press, 2000), 105.〕 and an edict to the autonomous Old English clergy guiding them to submit to the new regime. These favors were instrumental in the submission of the English church following the Battle of Hastings. Count Eustace carried his Papal insignia, a gonfanon with three tails charged with a cross, which William of Poitiers says was given to William I to signify the Pope's blessing of his invasion to secure a submission to Rome.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://penelope.uchicago.edu/~grout/encyclopaedia_romana/britannia/anglo-saxon/flowers/gonfanon.html )〕 Alexander II oversaw the suppression of the "Alleluia" during the Latin Church's celebration of Lent.〔Cabrol, p 46.〕 This is followed to this day, and in the Tridentine rite "Alleluia" is also omitted during the Advent season. Alexander II was followed by his associate Hildebrand, who took the title of Gregory VII. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pope Alexander II」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
