Roger of Worcester
Roger of Worcester (died 9 or 10 August 1179) was Bishop of Worcester from 1164 to 1179. He had a major role in the controversy between Henry II of England, who was Roger's cousin, and Archbishop Thomas Becket.〔Cheney ''Roger, Bishop of Worcester''〕
==Life==
Roger's father was Robert, 1st Earl of Gloucester.〔(British History Online Bishops of Worcester ) accessed on 3 November 2007〕 His illegitimate half-brother Richard was Bishop of Bayeux from 1135 to 1142.〔Spear "Norman Empire and the Secular Clergy" ''Journal of British Studies'' p. 5〕 Roger was a younger son and he was educated with the future king, Henry II, afterwards ordained priest, and consecrated Bishop of Worcester by Thomas Becket, on 23 August 1163.〔Fryde, et al. ''Handbook of British Chronology'' p. 278〕 He adhered loyally to Thomas, and though one of the bishops sent to the pope to carry the king's appeal against the archbishop, he took no active part in the embassy, nor did he join the appeal made by the bishops against the archbishop in 1166, thus arousing the enmity of the king.
When Thomas desired Roger to join him in his exile, Roger went without leave in 1167, Henry having refused him permission. He boldly reproached the king when they met at Falaise in 1170, and a reconciliation followed. After the martyrdom of St. Thomas, England was threatened with an interdict, but Roger interceded with the pope and was thereafter highly esteemed in England and at Rome. Pope Alexander III, who frequently employed him as delegate in ecclesiastical causes, spoke of him and Bartholomew Iscanus Bishop of Exeter, as "the two great lights of the English Church".
Roger died on 9 August 1179〔 or on 10 August. His death was commemorated on 9 August.〔
