Romanus Diogenes : ウィキペディア英語版
Romanos IV Diogenes

Romanos IV Diogenes (, ''Rōmanós IV Diogénēs''), also known as Romanus IV, was a member of the Byzantine military aristocracy who, after his marriage to the widowed empress Eudokia Makrembolitissa, was crowned Byzantine emperor and reigned from 1068 to 1071. During his reign he was determined to halt the decline of the Byzantine military and to stop Turkish incursions into the Byzantine Empire, but in 1071 he was captured and his army routed at the Battle of Manzikert. While still captive he was overthrown in a palace coup, and when released he was quickly defeated and detained by members of the Doukas family. In 1072, he was blinded and sent to a monastery, where he died of his wounds.
== Accession to the throne ==
Romanos Diogenes was the son of Constantine Diogenes (died 1032) and a member of a prominent and powerful Cappadocian family,〔Norwich, pg. 344〕 connected by birth to most of the great aristocratic nobles in Asia Minor.〔Finlay, pg. 30〕 His mother was a daughter of Basil Argyros, brother of the emperor Romanos III.〔Cheynet & Vannier (2003), p. 78.〕 Courageous and generous, but also impetuous, Romanos rose with distinction in the army due to his military talents, and he served on the Danubian frontier.〔Kazhdan, pg. 1807〕 However, he was eventually convicted of attempting to usurp the throne of the sons of Constantine X Doukas in 1067.〔Norwich, pg. 344〕 While waiting to receive his sentence from the regent Eudokia Makrembolitissa, he was summoned into her presence and advised that she had pardoned him and that she had furthermore chosen him to be her husband and the guardian of her sons as emperor.〔Finlay, pg 29〕 She took this course of action primarily due to her concern that unless she managed to find a powerful husband, she could easily lose the regency to any unscrupulous noble, and also because she was infatuated with the popular Romanos.〔Norwich, pg. 344〕 Her decision was met with little protest as the Seljuk Turks had overrun much of Cappadocia and had even taken the important city of Caesarea, meaning that the army needed to be placed under the command of an able and energetic general.〔Finlay, pg. 30〕
The problem Romanos and Eudokia had in executing this plan was that Eudokia's deceased husband, Constantine X, had made her swear an oath never to remarry.〔Canduci, pg 271〕 She approached the Patriarch John Xiphilinos and convinced him both to hand over the written oath she had signed to this effect, and to have him pronounce that he was in favour of a second marriage for the good of the state.〔Norwich, pg. 344〕 The Senate agreed, and on January 1, 1068 Romanos married the empress and was crowned Emperor of the Romans.〔Norwich, pg. 344〕
